victorian queen bedroom set
image
I am going to be purchasing a mobile home and will be renting out 1 or 2 rooms once I am in there and situated first. My dilemma is this: I usually do not attach my self to furniture of things. That is not me or my style of image etc. I am very basic and casual. However... that being said, about 10 or 11 years ago I had a car accident and received a small settlement. I was then able to purchase a used car I really loved a dodge and this expensive for me Queen size bed. It was a dream bed to me. One you see in magazines in those fancy homes. Victorian solid wood..French Provencal I think it may even be called. It has a huge upper fancy wood head board and a large foot board with dips in the wood and even a thick wooden frame around the whole bed. It looks like something Queen Anne might sleep in. It has a semi distressed look in some areas and a sleek mat silk cream finish to it. It is accented with some lighter brown in toning the areas to pronounce them. I just am in love with this bed. However: Realistically my life right now is changing and although I won't be living in the state I am moving to for more then a few years the most, it is where I have a close friend whom she and her family are like my step family and always have been.
I don't know if this bed like where I live now will consume the whole room for the most part with little floor area..Or if I will rent out both bedrooms in which then the people will most likely bring their own beds/ furniture for the rooms. I realistically would be best off buying a Futon with a good quality mattress later on. They deliver them and I think they come in all sizes and mattress thickness's as well. I can IF renting both rooms use this as a couch in the living room and then my bed at night.
My friend asked me if I would consider selling it. I purchased it for $3,000 .00 and it looks antique. Its gorgeous! But.. sadly in today's economy people don't have this or even half and want a deal.
I sold my mothers fabricated bedroom set dirt cheap because I need to money. But.. it was not any where near this quality of mine. I told my friend it is hard to part with this bed and I don't know whom the manufacturer is even. My friend was trying to reason with me in a logical way that it is not as though I will never find something similar one day when I purchase a home, which I plan on. But for now.. it may not be realistic when I need the money more then the bed. She said to take my mattress but leave the bed. Or .. I can even leave that.. and buy an air mattress then the Futon when I arrive.
Please convince me kindly about what to do. I know women answering this will get it and understand. Men not so much. LOL.
Thank You and Merry Christmas to all whom answer.

I'm very sorry to hear about your mother. If she's been sick a long time, you may feel like rushing through these kinds of decisions in an attempt to move on ... resist the urge. My aunts did this after my grandmother died and then regretted so many decisions they made in the moment. Respect the fact that you are grieving and that you have more than enough time to handle this choice when you're ready.
Personally, if you really like the bed, I would keep it. It would cost less than a new futon to have someone else move it. There's a website called uShip where truckers will haul extra goods for people for a savings when the routes are convenient. This will be something you can always come home to and enjoy at the end of a long day. That's worth more than anything.
