Many people underestimate the importance of accessories especially when it comes to interior designs. It's all too easy to get distracted by the big expensive pieces of furniture that one imagines will be the focal point of the room. A four poster canopy bed is a great example of this. Yes it is a big piece of furniture and it will draw the eye but for the effect to look right the focus needs, actually, to be on the canopy bedding. It is the choice of lines, pillows and covers etc that will make or break the complete look. If you just focus on the bed itself and then stick it in the middle of your bedroom with out choosing decent bedding the result will be less than pleasing.
