~Fast Reply~ RE: Queen vs. King size bed: The king is only too big if the person being tied is tiny! Tie me up to a queen size spread eagle and, well, I'm not very 'spread' at all. My hand reaches the corner, and my elbow still touches my side. I'm pretty damned big, of course, but if the person being tied is 6feet taller or more it should be fine. Also, I really don't like silk, satin, or high-thread-count sheets. I'd say: test different kinds out, if you can. If there's a type that you've used before and you know you like it, stick with it. I had extremely high thread count sheets for a few months, and they were no where near as comfy as my good 'ole jersey-knit. Back on topic of the original post: My bedroom IS my living room... and my computer room... but then again I'm a student living in the dorms. My ideal bedroom for a mixture of sultry and pleasant seems to jive well with what an earlier poster said. Less is more! A wooden bed stained quite dark with a pillow-top mattress... and lots of pillows. I love eclecticism, so I like different colors and pillowcases that don't match my sheets. Two (large) comforters, at least, clearly different from each other. A night stand for each side of the bed that matches the style of the bed, and maybe a television (a big maybe). Lighting would be wall-mounted sconces that are dimmable, preferably with either a switch by the bed as well as the door, or small, unobtrusive lamps on the night-stands. Colors (except the pillows and comforters) would be earth-tones and darker. Preferably the floor would be hard-wood with a rug or two, and the walls would be painted, not papered. Either NO window, or heavy, heavy curtains. Otherwise I'd like to keep everything else (clothes and such) out of the bedroom.
