My Amerisleep AS3 Unboxing Video (Surprise, my voice is ridiculous!) If I can (just barely) do it, you can totally tackle a bed-in-a-box by yourself. Updated 10/15/22 Amerisleep's AS5 was recently featured as the 'Best Soft Mattress in a Box' by Good Housekeeping , with the panel of reviewers noting: Pressure relief for side sleepers Taller than other boxed mattresses Good customer service Amerisleep Mattress Reviews We've been happy Amerisleep customers since purchasing our first AS3 mattress more than 9 years ago. Now we also have an AS2 and an AS4 (the AS3 is still our favorite). Born with chronic insomnia (even as a baby - my family insists I was a nightmare), the struggle to improve my sleep is my life. My husband, the overly-analytical mechanical engineer, was initially skeptical of a mail-order mattress, but he was quickly won over. 2012: Wine glass test, sans wine. I was fairly confident our brand-new mattress would pass with f
Here are more design ideas from the Summit County Parade of Homes. Enjoy!
1. Windows that go all the way down to the countertop (or countertops/desks/tables that come all the way up to the bottom of the window) look amazing. Stretching the window wall to wall is even better.
Update: When building our dream home in the NM mountains, our builder explained that this does cost a bit more, as it requires very specific framing to make sure everything lines up perfectly.
2. Frame square cubbies right into the drywall for a modern bookcase. When we build our dream home next year, I'd like to do something similar but with wood on the bottom of each shelf. Or stone. Or maybe a bright, fun color painted onto the back of each cubby - a different one in each square.
Our poor builder doesn't know what he's gotten himself into.
3. For maximum impact, you need many, MANY pendant lights.
4. Have a little nook/hallway? Don't just leave it plain and boring. A little stone on the wall makes all the difference.
5. I would never have thought to do this, but it makes so much sense. For extra storage and countertop space, squeeze a dresser along the wall of the water closet. This opens up so many decorating options.
6. Most mudrooms place a bench along a wall, but it's more functional to place it in the center of the room. Now, you have that much more storage space because nothing was blocked by the bench.
7. If all you have is a tiny space, it's all the more important to go all out. This photo was taken inside an itty bitty mountain condo, barely big enough for 2 people. The owner renovated it with built-ins to really maximize their limited square footage.
8. Hammered. Stainless. Sink.
I love this sink!!
9. No room for a lamp? Hang capiz shell pendants on each side of a bed.
10. When done with upscale finishes, like this wood ceiling and rustic chandelier, no one seems to mind a "too small" bedroom.
