We've seen some pretty amazing space-ship themed beds before, but this one is from another galaxy altogether. Introducing the "Deepspace Defender Spaceship Bed," a rocket ship bed that's ready for liftoff and almost (kinda, not really) costs as much as a real spaceship.
The high-tech sleeper was designed and developed by Fable Bedworks, a company that specializes in designer, custom-theme beds.
The Fable Bedworks website describes the "Deepspace Defender Spaceship Bed" as the "perfect landing zone for little astronauts ready to dream about the final frontier."
Buyers will have to reach deep into their pockets to purchase one, as the "Defender" requires a $7,150 deposit to secure the $14,300 otherworldly sleeper. Thankfully, shipping and assembly costs are included for residents of the U.S. and Canada.
The bed is raised or lowered with finger-tip control and a light-up keypad built into the "Defender" will turn off bedroom lights. Kids can hide trinkets within secret shelving or store space-themed gear on any of the five shelves available. "Deepspace Defender Outer Space Theme bedding" will complete the whole look for $260.
To purchase the bed (or check out any other themed beds from Fable Bedworks), visit the company's website here. And even though this bed is for kids only, we hope Fable Bedworks makes an "adult edition" sometime soon.

Before You Go
Why You'll Love It: It obviously goes well with metallics, but it also pairs nicely with natural elements like driftwood or wool.
What to Watch Out For: Gray isn't as neutral as you might think, says Jordan. Warmer tints can be much easier to work with and won't give off that cold, industrial feel.
Shades to Try:Sherwin-Williams Mink (pictured) or Special Gray
Why You'll Love It: Pink is a great option for someone who wants just a hint of color. It's beautiful in warm light.
What to Watch Out For: Too much pink can give a room that "Barbie's Dreamhouse" vibe. If you're going with this choice, add gray or white accents, such as the white chest under the TV, above.
Shades to Try:Sherwin-Williams Abalone Shell or Blushing
Why You'll Love It: This green works with light wood furniture or floors and bright bedding, says Woelfel. Greens are also ideal for enhancing a room without natural daylight.
What to Watch Out For: Cool colors work best in north-facing rooms that get mostly filtered light. If your space has full sun, you may find the color is washed out.

Why You'll Love It: Warmer colors—like this deep red—are more flattering to skin tones, says Woelfel.
What to Watch Out For: Avoid heavily saturated or neon reds, and, as with all new colors, test the biggest swatch you can before committing.
Shades to Try:BEHR Rich Brocade (pictured) or Carpe Diem
Why You'll Love It: This couple-friendly shade can be both masculine and feminine and balances beautifully with grays or whites.
What to Watch Out For: Avoid pairing black with bright colors, as the effect can easily go over-the-top, says Jordan.
Shades to Try:Sherwin-Williams Tricorn Black, Peppercorn or Black Fox (pictured)
Why You'll Love It: Coastal shades bring the essence of nature indoors and can really brighten up an otherwise dreary space.
What to Watch Out For: Bright colors can overwhelm this subtle neutral, so stick with pastels, whites and grays.
Shades to Try:Sherwin-Williams Sea Salt
Why You'll Love It: This shade of brown is exceptionally versatile, and can work in just about any style of bedroom, from a contemporary loft to the most traditional colonial. One of Richard's favorite combinations is to add a few cream accents such as a large rug or an upholstered headboard similar to this one.
What to Watch Out For: Too much brown in a room can look drab, says Richard.
Shades to Try:Clark + Kensington Pebblestone
Why You'll Love It: A toned-down gold transitions well: Its sunnier daylight shade becomes more subdued in evening light.
What to Watch Out For: The wrong gold can be very energetic and too bright for a bedroom. Woelfel suggests starting a couple of shades lighter than you think you want.
