    I don't even have a bed. When I do get one I'll feel grateful to have two pillows and a quilt.... all that other faffery would get on my t1ts, having to faff about with it all the time.... and nobody ever sees it anyway.

    I do like to have nice bedding but I've got no time for decorative pillows. I rarely bother to make my bed in the mornings, I like to throw the covers back to let it air anyway so cushions would just get in the way.

    I must confess to being a" cushion lover" in the bedroom ....

    I always have a " throw " at the bottom of the bed , a full size one that can be pulled up if it's cold and a couple of cushions leaning up against my pillows ...

    I suppose compared to a lot of people I spent quite a lot of time in the bedroom in the evenings instead of in the sitting room .... perhaps I shoud rephrase that !;) lol ....

    In the winter , in the evenings I always have scented candles lit in there , so it just feels really snuggly and cosy in there .... it wouldn't be the same without my cushions in there !

    I like my bedroom to look sexy but cosy lol ! :p

    I don't know really :rotfl:i just really like it, it's got a huge bright and ariey window, lots of space so doesn't look cramped, I would rather sit in there and read (a lot) or watch tv, than sit downstairs in the lounge.

    DD and I spend a lot of time in there talking, it's where we discuss our day, how work/college was etc. i think it's calming in there and I feel totally at home there.

    The lounge just doesn't have that feeling at all.

    That sounds lovely and more than a bedroom. Mine is just a bedroom.

    Hubby laughs and says no one actually has a bed like this, it's just show homes.

    I don't think it's a waste of money, I love it. Does anyone else have a bedroom like this, I think it's normal.....

    I've got a throw & 6 cushions on my bed & a throw & 4 cushions on the spare bed.

    Definitely no bed cushions in this house either. And if I find them in hotels they just get chucked and left on the floor. Life's too short for that kind of unnecessary clutter

    I think it depends how you use your bed - I read and sleep in mine generally, so I don't need cushions (the pillows do all I require). My DD has 2 or 3 big cushions on her bed, but she uses them to prop up books, ipad etc, she spends a lot of time in her room on/in her bed.

    My daughter is like this, she has several animal cushions to help her be comfortable - she has a giant Percy pig head that I want to steal!
