Custom Furniture Education

A bed isn’t just where you sleep — it’s where you begin and end every day. That’s why investing in a high-quality, custom upholstered bed is one of the most important decisions you can make for your home. At Candace & Basil, we build every bed in-house from scratch, ensuring superior craftsmanship, safer materials, and timeless designs that last a lifetime.


1. Built on a Solid Foundation

The strength of a bed begins with its frame. Our beds are constructed using FSC-certified hardwood lumber, ensuring not only long-term durability but also environmentally responsible sourcing. We reinforce every joint with advanced joinery techniques and formaldehyde-free PureBond® plywood, providing a bed frame that resists warping, squeaking, and loosening over time.


2. Comfort in Every Detail

Unlike mass-produced beds, our upholstered headboards are webbed and padded on the back, so they offer softness and comfort even where you might not expect it. This extra step ensures that every part of your bed feels luxurious and supportive — whether you’re leaning back to read, watch TV, or simply relax.


3. Custom Sizes, Custom Designs

We specialize in custom sizing, so your bed is never limited to standard dimensions. Whether you want a King, California King, Euro Queen, or oversized designs like a Texas, Wyoming, or Alaskan King, we can build it to perfection. And if you want something completely unique — in between sizes, or a design of your own — our in-house team will bring your vision to life.


4. Sustainable, Non-Toxic Materials

Your bed should be as safe as it is beautiful. That’s why we use:

  • Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 Textiles — upholstery fabrics tested to be free from harmful chemicals.

  • CertiPUR-US® Foam — free from formaldehyde, ozone depleters, and toxic flame retardants.

  • OTC-Compliant Non-Toxic Adhesives — safe bonding agents with low VOC emissions.

Every detail is chosen with your health and the environment in mind, giving you peace of mind about what you bring into your home.


5. Upholstery Tailored to You

Our upholstered beds can be finished in thousands of fabrics, leathers, and performance textiles, giving you endless options to personalize your bedroom. From classic linen-look weaves to plush velvets and stain-resistant performance fabrics, we’ll help you choose the material that complements your style while performing in everyday life.


6. Finishing Touches That Matter

Details make the difference in luxury furniture. With our custom beds, you can select:

  • Headboard height and design — from sleek modern to statement tall.

  • Stitching styles — including top-stitch or channel tufting.

  • Legs and trims — wood stains, metal accents, or fabric-wrapped bases.

  • Storage options — add drawers or lift-up storage for functional design.

Each finishing detail is carefully crafted in-house, ensuring both beauty and longevity.


7. Designed to Last a Lifetime

Because we build every bed from scratch with strong frames, premium foams, and performance textiles, your bed isn’t just a piece of furniture — it’s an heirloom-quality investment. Designed to last for decades with proper care, our custom upholstered beds combine timeless design with uncompromising craftsmanship.
