When a daughter appears in a family, for her parents she is a little princess. And the princess needs all the attributes of such a "high-ranking" person: crowns, tiaras, beautiful dresses and, of course, a carriage. It can be difficult to acquire such a life-size mode of transport for both financial and many other reasons. However, dads with the initial skills of carpentry are quite capable of making a bed in the form of a carriage for their princess. In addition, modern manufacturers offer a fairly large selection of similar items of children's furniture in different price ranges.

What does it look like?

It is important for parents that the child is comfortable and comfortable in the crib, and for the baby himself it is much more important that his sleeping place is beautiful, bright and so that he likes it. Of course, the issue of safety is important - for a little girl it is better that the furniture be equipped with high sides, so it will not fall out of it, even if it spins a lot. The carriage bed looks exactly as it sounds. A magical vehicle in which a girl can sleep and play, read and just wallow, inventing various wonderful stories.

If a girl loves fairy tales about Disney princesses, then, of course, she will like a carriage bed., to climb into which she will be on small steps. In fact, there are a lot of options for such a berth: a round pumpkin carriage with a porch and windows, a two-dimensional vehicle frame, as if cut out of thick cardboard, a crib with a headboard in the form of a carriage tie (otherwise it is called “capitonné”) , a metal frame with a canopy that turns the bed into a carriage, and a host of other options.

Advantages

It is difficult to talk about the shortcomings of such a wonderful (especially in the eyes of a child) thing like a carriage for sleeping. Of course, ready-made cribs are not cheap compared to regular cribs. However, if there is an opportunity to make such a miracle thing on their own, then the child will love it not only for its beauty and convenience, but also for the fact that the carriage was created especially for her. It is only important to think over safety issues and use quality materials.

The advantages are undeniable:

  • it is not only a place to sleep, it is also a place for games;
  • you can equip boxes for toys or bed linen under the "carriage";
  • an excellent orthopedic mattress can be put in such a bed;
  • ready-made models are often equipped with backlighting, which will allow you to read without impairing your eyesight;
  • the range of models is wide enough so that you can choose the one you need in size, color, configuration and price;
  • the girl will happily sleep alone, thus, such models contribute to teaching the child to sleep independently.

Compatibility

Of course, it is better if your princess receives not only a carriage bed, but also a room in which all the "royal" attributes will harmoniously fit. That is, it is advisable to decorate the room where the girl lives in the same style: in shades of pink, with Austrian or French curtains, bows and tie-backs, furniture in harmony with the general atmosphere of the "castle". The bed can be equipped with a canopy or canopy - it all depends on the model of the "vehicle", and most importantly - on its roof.

Parents who are not constrained in funds can contact specialized design bureaus, and then a whole castle will be created for the girl in one room. So you can take into account all the wishes at the same time, while avoiding lengthy shopping trips and equipment of the premises.

Currently, you can either purchase ready-made pieces of furniture and arrange them into an ensemble, or make everything to order, taking into account the size of the room and the needs of the customer.

Capitone technique

It is difficult to call a headboard made using this technique an authentic coach, however, it is these quilted rhombs made of soft fabric, formed due to the waist with buttons, that perfectly imitate the interior upholstery of this vehicle. Therefore, if your little princess is not so small and is unlikely to fit into a finished crib due to age and height, you can use this technique and create a dream bedroom for her.

Interestingly, the capitonné technique can be used not only to upholster furniture, you can use it to decorate walls, accessories (cushions, bedspreads). Of course, as in any other type of decor, the main thing is not to overdo it, the abundance of details of the "carriage coupler" can turn a room into an imitation of the insides of a suitcase or casket. To work in the capitonne technique, it is better to use high-quality fabrics - you can take leather (natural or artificial), suede, velor, flock, velvet. Whatever material is chosen, it must be constantly looked after. To make the tie itself, you will need either tight-fitting buttons or special furniture nails decorated with rhinestones.

Calculation of parameters

Choosing a bed from a catalog or in a regular store, you need to pay attention to a number of parameters.

  • Age. Before a year and a half, it is unsafe to place a girl in such cribs, in general, all models assume that the child has reached this age.
  • The length can be in a fork from 120 to 195 cm, which suggests that a similar model can be purchased for a teenager, however, whether she wants to sleep in such a bed is a question for parents.
  • Crib models often have the width of a full-fledged single bed - from 90 to 120 cm, the child will be comfortable in it, even if he sleeps restlessly and turns.
  • Safety - the environmental friendliness of the materials from which the bed is made, the height of the sides, the presence of sharp corners and protruding parts on which the child can hit or cut. If there are any doubts, it is better to refrain from buying.

Manufacturing materials

Among the materials, there are several of the most common.

  • Photo printed or painted chipboard. It is important that the material is of high quality, safe and does not contain harmful impurities.
  • Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) - safe and high quality material, ideal for making children's furniture.
  • PVC plastic - convenient in that it can be bent and given the desired shape. It is also safe, non-flammable, and quite durable.

Add-ons

To add personality to the girl's bedroom, you can provide a number of additional options.

  • Canopy - it will create the feeling of a real palace, as well as add security.
  • Backlight. There are many options: if the girl is afraid to sleep in complete darkness, you can make dim "night lights" around the perimeter of the bed; if he likes to read before going to bed, you can arrange several modes of light: for reading and for falling asleep - a gradually dying light, for example. Luminescent stars on the roof of the crib, which the baby will look at while falling asleep, are also suitable as a night light.
  • Drawer for bedding or toys, shelves on the sides for books. If the room is small, drawers will eliminate the need to put a chest of drawers, and side shelves are ideal for those who like to read before bedtime.

In order to buy a carriage bed for your daughter, you do not need to rack your brains over such a task.These products are available in a large assortment and with good discounts in modern furniture stores or on the Internet.
