Long Term Buys

Buying items and furniture for your home can be a stressful and costly process when you are designing your home. However there is a simple way that you can keep spending and worry to a minimum. You can opt for LONG TERM BUYS that will become a statement feature in your home no matter how many times you alter your décor or change the interior theme of the room. These statement items are classic and functional pieces of furniture that will look great in any modern or traditional room.

A sofa is an obvious choice for a long term purchase as it is an essential item that takes pride of place in any room. If you want your sofa to last for as long as possible ensure that you opt for a simple and classic design instead of unusual or trendy styles that will date as time goes on. Select fabrics that are classically stylish and hard wearing to ensure that they will last as long as possible under the wear and tear of daily use. These same rules can also be said for purchasing a classic bed frame such as a carved or upholstered design in natural or neutral tones. Ensure the frame is robust and sturdy as you can always change your mattress over the years instead of replacing your entire bed.

Dressers and display cabinets are a timeless furniture item that are a perfect combination of visual style and practicality. They create a focal point in hallways, dining rooms and living rooms as well as providing plenty of space for your ornaments and collectibles. If you like traditional furniture then select a classic oak welsh dresser that can be used to display your family crockery and heirlooms for generations of your family. If you want a slightly more modern look then select a white or cream painted glazed display cabinet that can be used for storing any valuable collectibles where they can be easily viewed but stay secure and safe.

Clothes are unfortunately something that we simply cannot do without. Some of us may have only a handful of essential purchases however there are some of us who prefer a more extensive and varied collection of clothing and accessories. This is why wardrobes are an essential piece of furniture that can be designed to be accommodated into your bedroom or dressing room no matter how many times you change your style or colour scheme. Simple single wardrobes are great for those with small clothing collections or children’s and guest bedrooms alternatively classic triple wardrobes are perfect for those with larger clothing items, shoes or handbags. For the ultimate long term purchase why not add a fitted wardrobe into your bedroom interior in simple clean and neutral colour palettes or sleek mirrored finishes that can be matched to any type of interior décor.
