SanAntonio Rose Rough Rock Total Posts: 2 Last Post: 10/21/2008 Member Since: 10/20/2008	I'm looking for quality bedroom furniture at reasonable prices. I have spent several hours on line and still cannot find a bed that I like. Does anyone know of a web site that can help guide me to what I want? I'm so confuse I don't even know what furniture style I like. I would really appreciate any help that can be given. Thanks!

I'm looking for furniture for an entire house but it has to have a certain look to it. Trying to find what I'm looking for is difficult in itself but trying to keep each room under a certain amount of money is proving to be near impossible!

My MIL and I just went through this (they are moving and getting all new furniture). We spent probably 50 hours and went to at least 10 different stores. Was it exhausting after awhile? Of course! But it is something you have to see in person and you need to make sure you love it.

There are so many variations in color and fabric, it's really hard to get a good feeling for something online. And furniture is SO expensive, which makes the decision even harder. Another big plus of going in person is trying out the couches for yourself!! That's Mrs. Hudson_Hawk to you... Over and out.

Our requirements included finding solid wood, well designed joints that wouldn't fall apart after taking apart and moving a few times, and lower cost. We ended up finding a fabulous solid wood bed with headboard/foot frame at the Costco Home store (not the regular store) in king size for around $800! Then we drove around and found a random outlet furniture store and picked up solid wood book cases for about $200 a piece. Our previous bedroom was a massive suite and we easily could fit a couch/chair and ottoman in there and we found an amazing chenile set on clearance at JC Penny for $1,200. Then we went back to the Costco Home store and picked up a rug for $200. We got great deals on everything and furnished our whole room for about the price of what a king size Pottery Barn bed would cost! The trick is to drive around, check EVERY store you see and look for great deals! It took us nearly three months to furnish our entire home. We moved since then, going from 2,600 sq ft to 1,900 and now do not have enough room for everything! We had to sell a few items , which reminds me, check Craig's List too!

Then, later, look at what you've collected...10 bucks says you pick re-occurring styles....that helped me do my old bathroom...I didn't know what I wanted but when I looked at what I cut out, it was all subway tile ... ______________________________ Stewart says: I'm good enough. I'm smart enough. And doggon'it, people like me.
