Furniture Online – What is New is Old
I’ll admit it. I am not into decorative pillows, or strategically placed throw blankets, but I am a self admitted furniture junkie. Mainly, I tend to rescue chests of drawers and occasional tables. A few years back, there were more side tables in my house than the seating called for, and the home office was a gallery of smiall pieces waiting for the day when they would be rotated in. I realized a year ago that without a sofa or a bed, all of the rest just wouldn’t come together.
I found a site where you can actually order a few suitable pieces that may blend your eras together at http://furniturefromhome.com. Modern furniture is very eclectic, but I find there are a lot of styles that are 1960s and inspired if that is your taste. You can get a captains bed that hasn’t changed much since the 1970s, and in fact may have more storage. I have also found some beds that have similar low profiles to those that I was just looking at in a 1960s design book. And in the living room department, several sectionals can be ordered that have a striking resemblance to what was in the 1970s and early 1980s design books.
For me, although I can really imagine some of these pieces being able to marry the elements of an eclectic home, I am still not 100% sold that I would be comfortable buying all my seating online.
In the next few weeks, I will be getting out my design books and sharing them with you as well.
