Dozing on the daybed ...

One of my favorite things about Sunday is my afternoon nap. I love to curl up with a good book or watch a classic movie on a comfy sofa, then nod off to dream with relaxed abandon.


I'm just thinking that my weekend ritual would be even more sumptuous on a plush daybed adorned with luxurious, down-filled pillows like the Versailles shown above (sold by An Angel at my Table) or either of those below (photos from: Design Shimmer on left and Country Living on right).

Both of the daybeds below bask in natural light and invite leisurely pursuits. The Grogan family home in Pennsylvania (left) is a lovely study of casual comfort. On right, Country Living magazine showcases a beach cottage's antique daybed dressed in Provencal linens.








This daybed (image via The Lennoxx) could serve double duty in a guest room.

 

If I considered a daybed more for guest seating, and less for reclining, I would be instantly drawn to both of these shown above. Photo on left from Southern Accents, and on right is a room from designer Jayne Wunder.

I may have to stretch out and give this some more thought.
