The Hometown kid bed is a nostalgic reminder of idyllic days. The picket fence frame is charming and carefree. The headboard arches up like a gate with the footboard conveniently straight so a young person can dangle his or her feet over the edge. The four “fence” posts guard the sleeper at night’their substantial girth designed to withstand any number of pillow fights and slumber parties. Rows of “pickets” are flat and smooth. The white finish is as bright as clouds against a clear blue sky; pure, pristine, cotton white. Clear lacquer protects the bed for years of maintenance-free care.
