Furniture ideas

Furniture ideas.

You could:

Build your own furniture. my dad used to do a bit of this now and then, but I have to say that as someone who didn't train as a cabinet maker, his efforts were, while impressive, still kinda of the home made genre.

Import from abroad.Or find someone who imports from abroad - and see what original Mexican, Shaker, or Indian stuff is out there. This is one way of ensuring that guests don't say "Oh we've got that table/chair too..."

Like making your own stuff, but not as difficult - you could carry out your own modifications to what's there already. There are a few websites devoted to this hobby.

And for buying, there's a wide choice from online furniture stores, meaning that shopping expeditions are more a matter of leisurely browsing than a day's car parking and traipsing.
