Hi all!

This is my first time posting on here, but I've been reading for a few weeks now. I'm soooo glad I found this site, as a lot of you are so good at this decorating thing!

I know stuff that I like, but my problem is putting it together when I have it all!

Anyway - my current situation revolves around finding new dressers/bedroom furniture. I do have a bed that I love & am keeping it, but I don't know how to pick dressers to go w/ it...

I've taken the liberty of adding pictures of the bed and I guess what I'm looking for is for someone to help me pick something out! I'm a visual person, so if you can show pictures of what you are talking about, that would be great! I can then go from there & pick stuff out at my local furniture store.

I prefer darker woods, but I'm not sure what types of woods/stains to look for to go w/ the bed that I already have. I would like to stay away from cherry if possible (I love it, but I'm going for a more "neutral" stain, so to speak, versus something w/ so much "red" in it).

As far as styles go, I'm at a loss there as well. I would think something a little more clean lined (although not "modern;" Maybe transitiional?) would be better vs. ornate (which I'm not a big "ornate" detail fan, I prefer cleaner lines, but not sterile lines).

I hope these pics work!

Please ignore the stark white walls (these were taken over the summer before we painted)... the walls are now SW Kilim Beige (for the whole house, for now).

The bed itself is an antique bronze finish (which I love). I hope these pictures captured the coloring of the bed well enough.
