Decorating Ideas For Kids Bedrooms - Beds

Author : Rob Dillon
Kids bedroom furniture can be hit or miss. Parents are torn between style and design or practicality and usability.Often there are two types of bedroom furniture, themed and a more traditional style.To start with let's take a look at traditional beds.Traditional bedsTraditional kids beds usually perform just one or two functions and don't lend themselves to a particular theme. As such they are more likely to be a long-term solution rather than a short-term fashion statement and can be categorised into three main areas; pine beds, metal beds and divan beds.Kids Pine bedsThese are kids beds constructed from pine and are usually finished with a natural coloured stain, these are the type of bed you first think of when asked to imagine a kids bed.Pine is a cheap building material and is strong for its weight. Pine trees often grow fast and as such bed manufactures often source the pine from sustainable forests. Pine trees also produce a lot of branches, these branches can be seen in the pine of the bed as knots.Kids Metal bedsMetal is a good material for the construction of kids beds, it is strong, inexpensive and can be made into elaborate shapes.Traditional kids beds are often a combination of pine and metal, using metal for structural support, and pine for the base of the bed.Metal kids beds are usually powder coated or use a hard type of plastic coating applied to the base metal. Small chips and marks are often easier to spot than on pine beds.Divan bedsDivan beds are a very basic kids bed in a simple box shape, usually with storage in base. Divan beds are made from a combination of a lightweight wooden frame, MDF and other inexpensive building materials, covered in a durable fabric.The mattress sits on top of the box frame and headboards are attached as a separate item. As divan beds are basically a box they have the advantage of having a lot of storage space inside them, great for a kids bedroom!Fun Kids bedsFun kids beds are often a traditional style bed that use bright colours and fun accessories, such as themed headboards. This creates a more cost effective kids bed as these beds can be made on the same production line as a traditional bed.Modern Modular (adaptive) Kids bedsThese newer and increasingly popular types of bed are usually more traditional in design and are often made from high quality pine. Modular designs ensure a long life span along with adaptability to meet yours and your child's needs.So what does modular mean?In this context modular furniture is that which can be modified or altered. A basic example would be to take a standard single bed and add an extension pack to create any manner of other beds such as mid-sleepers, bunk beds, loft beds etc.Modular beds are a great way of changing your kids bed to meet their needs. For example, a young child may require a "first bed", a shorter than normal bed. This bed would suit their needs for a year or two, but then they would require a full size bed. This is where the "Modular" aspect comes into play, an extension is added to the existing bed and the short bed becomes a full size bed. The bed is changed to meet the changing needs of the child and you don't have to worry about buying a whole new bed.A few years of growing means that your needs are different. Take the existing low bed and add another extension pack, and the single low bed becomes either a mid-sleeper able to house drawers, desks etc, or a bunked able to sleep two. A high-sleeper/loft kit can also be added to make a towering bed capable of fitting a full height wardrobe, or a full sized desk, or even a futon bed chair under.Themed bedsThemed beds are those that often relate to a well-known character or object. Themed beds are both exciting and often expensive and can rage from the traditional sports car bed to a Disney© Princess tower bed. The drawbacks of a themed bed can be that they often fall out of style after a few years.Thanks for reading.Rob DillonAfter several years working in the industry, from ground up to general manager of an international franchise specialising in children's themed bedrooms, I decided I could go one step further and create a new benchmark for quality and customer service, so set up http://www.FunKidsRooms.comhttp://www.FunKidsRooms.com is a small family ran business with no aspirations to become a large faceless corporation.

Accident Injury Claim - Get The Right Solicitor To Succeed

Author : Mohammad Latif

An accident injury can happen almost anywhere: at home, at work, on the road, shopping, during sport activities and so on. Each of these situations may bring many troubles, particularly if the injury is severe enough to affect your personal lifestyle or your ability to work for a longer time. However, with an accident injury claim it helps to compensate losses caused by the accident injury.

It isn"t always 100% recoverable such an annual holidays with friends and family. This and many others of the likes are not recoverable. It"s something you have to miss.

You can on the other hand retrieve any money paid for medical treatments, journeys in relation to the accident such as visits to physiotherapy or medical center. This is recoverable once your compensation claim is settled.

"No Win No Fee" Revolution

Since 1998, solicitors work on a "No Win No Fee" scheme, abolishing Legal Aid. It was put in effect due to many people no being able to get legal aid and didn"t bother with their compensation. It made it easier and cost-free for the accident victim. Now, if you win your injury claim, you don"t pay any fees and you get 100% of your money.

The fees are recovered from the losing party. And if you lose, it still won"t cost you anything if you use a quality accident solicitor who would write the costs off.

No Fees Or Costs

Therefore, no payment is required by an accident solicitor until the final verdict is reached. Yet still you don"t pay for it. Being able to get a free assessment is another bonus as it allows you know for sure if you definitely have a claim for compensation.

The solicitor should not hassle you to proceed. But they will advise you with the benefits to go ahead with an accident injury claim. If you do contact them, YOU decide if you want to make use of their skills and experience.

Brilliant Personal Injury Solicitor

A quality claim solicitor will go through the stages of proceeding with an injury claim. Being able to predict possible payout figures and also the time it might take. Just by listening to them will you be able to examine their professionalism. They should have your interest at heart and shouldn"t be taking your case, just for the money.

Another absolute bonus is taking no deductions from your injury compensation, no loans being set up or any hidden interest - no catches or tricks. This would outline that the service of an injury solicitor is free for real. For you, it means there are no costs and no risk involved.

Business Ethics

As the circumstances of every accident may vary, every accident claim requires an individual approach. A solicitor should take care of every detail of your compensation claim, so you may relax and wait for the results of their work. They should be highly skilled and experienced, as a result of numerous settled cases.

Brilliant compensation solicitors are hard to find these days. But by finding one and not being able to contact them on some occasions does not mean they don"t know about you or your case. They will be doing everything in their power to settle your claim.

Also being part of an elite group of solicitors, they will have experience. Experience for converting technical jargon to the simplest format for you to understand. Advice is one powerful quality a solicitor gives you, so listen to them.

The Aftermath

If you had an accident, it leaves painful, traumatic memories and affects your lifestyle in many troublesome ways. Many of these bad experiences cannot be undone, but can be compensated. It"s one of the main reasons why you shouldn"t wait around with an accident claim in your pocket.

With a personal injury solicitor"s help, you can get what you deserve for your suffering and perhaps it may help you to start a new, better chapter in your life.
