XP @ D&R: Bedroom Furniture Help

In case you're bored... :)

- - -

H and I have been married almost a year, and are just now trying to decide on bedroom furniture. Our style is rustic/modern, and neither of us are into matchy sets. After some recon, I'm leaning toward the following. Do you think these will look quirky/nice together, or should we just opt for a matching set of one of the three? TIA!

1) Pottery Barn Sumatra II Bed

West Elm Stria 6-Drawer Dresser

Pottery Barn Alden Nightstands

OR... wild card (not terribly modern OR rustic, but I love it)... Pottery Barn Daniella Nightstand

  • I don't know what it is, because I like rustic furniture, but I hate that dresser. 

    I really like the nightstand and think that the different color/curved shape will add a lot to the room since the other furniture is more boxy.

  • See, I really like the dresser, but I'm not sure I like it with the bed, and I definitely don't like it with bed + the Alden nightstand. I'm not sure what to put it with instead, though.

    I LOVE the curvy nightstand with the blocky bed. I'm really into that green right now, too. We just ordered an entry table in that color.

  • Update!

    We ended up buying ... none of the above. Ha.

    On a whim, we went down to OKC's furnitureland, over on Reno and Portland, not really thinking we'd find anything. Went to Suburban first, didn't see anything. Galleria next, and we were shocked by the amazing prices. Given, it's probably not West Elm or Pottery Barn quality, but everything we got is solid wood, not particle board.

    We ended up spending half of what we had budgeted, and got a bed, two nightstands, a huge dresser, a coffee table, and an end table. Crazy! I love all of it, and it's such a relief to be mostly done putting it together and getting things situated.

    Yay!

  • i would love to see a picture of what you ended up going with! we just ordered the sumatra II bed from pottery barn last night but were told we didn't need a box spring and it turns out it says box spring required right on the website. now i need to figure out if we try to see if we can make it work or cancel it all together and figure out plan b. thank you!
  • I know this is an old post but I thought it is worth asking...how do you like the Sumatra II bed?  I am thinking about ordering one. Thanks in advance!
