Toned Down Furniture that still Brings Life

A house is not just the four walls that you live inside. Everything you put inside it gives it character and presence of its own. Furniture greatly influences the ambience of a room. You have to choose your pieces wisely so that they reflect who you are and not what everyone else buys to fill their space.

Changing from the norm is important sometimes. For those that prefer quiet yet elegant furniture then shabby chic furniture is a good option. Your old furniture doesn’t have to go to waste or get thrown out. Take it out and liven it up a little. Paint it a new colour or change the upholstery.

The beauty about an old piece of furniture is that it always maintains its character and stands out without distracting your attention from the other pieces. Though contradictory, it blends in but doesn’t disappear in the crowd.

A house without a mirror leaves people somewhat blinded to their own beauty as they primp and prime the furniture. It brightens up a room especially if it is well lit. Having a mirror in such a way that you can actually clean up and make yourself presentable is great. A mirrored dressing table serves this purpose.

You will be able to have all your beauty products in one place since they usually have drawers. It becomes easier to assemble and find them. Sitting down to the privacy of a mirrored dressing table gives you confidence to try out any beauty regime of your choice until you get the perfect mix.

Once you are done with your beauty needs move to the next part of the house. You can never really have enough storage space. The options are usually a chest of drawers made of wood all through. How about spicing this up as well and giving it a natural country feel? Wicker storage qualifies as natural.

You can have a chest of wicker baskets instead of having wooden drawers. The frame and shelves should still be made of wood to keep it firm and stable. The wicker baskets go on the shelves and you should be able to pull them out.

The beauty about wicker storage is that you can paint the baskets any colour you want. Get them looking livelier by wrapping some ties around them in fabric of any colour. Lovers of bows and colour can accessorize with these and use more colourful fabric.

Let the quality Furniture Pop a Little

Buying new things constantly is a hassle especially with the current economy. Furniture is the last thing you buy on a regular basis since it comprises of big pieces that might have you spending a lot. This has people buying furniture in colours that would go well with any other colour of curtains or cushions and rugs.

The normal colours are different shades of brown and these can sometimes get boring. You can spruce it up by painting it white. White furniture makes a room gain a little more life without having to get new furniture. It is very easy to clean since all the dirty spots will be easy to see. That way you are sure that there is no hidden dirt or dust. 

 

About not buying new furniture, you can reuse an old piece and turn it into a shabby chic wall shelf. Repaint it and place your books in it. You can create your own small library using it. Another use for it could be to display your artefacts. Small paintings, photographs and even small art pieces for those that love collecting pieces.

If you place it in your kitchen the wall shelf can be used to hold spices or dishes. You can turn a shabby chic wall shelf into a display cabinet of sorts but without a door to cover the front. It can fit into any room in a house and still carry on the ambience in the room.

There are items that you would like to place next to your bed especially at night. Your phone, your alarm clock, your night medicine or something else that is important can come in handy in the middle of the night. Having bedside tables makes it easier to access these items without having to walk around in the middle of the night.

Bedside tables also fill up a bedroom so that it doesn’t look too empty. You can use them to place a bedside lamp so that an emergency in the middle of the night won’t have you tripping over shoes or rugs to reach the main light in the bedroom. They are functional and decorative pieces of furniture.

Furniture trends should not rule your household. Create or revamp your own pieces so that they meet your desired effect. Paint old furniture into beautiful pieces and decorate them to recycle them instead of throwing them out. It will save you money and keep you from losing a valuable piece.
