| Waterproof Chaise for a Deck
|
|
I recently saw an advertisement for a wonderful chaise for a deck. It was round and you lay on it in the summer time. I know summer is a long way off but I would like to plan ahead and make one of these for next year. The one I saw cost in the vicinity of $8,000.00 which is a bit 'over budget'.

| Are Leather Couches Kid-Friendly?
|
|
Our current couch was a hand-me-down from my grandparents, and after 10 years of us owning it, it has about had it! I'm considering buying a new couch in the not so distant future. My aunt had a beautiful leather couch, and I loved it, so I'd be interested in buying one. But, I do have a 2 year old son.

| Compare Prices When Buying a Mattress
|
|
When buying a mattress from one of the telephone/delivery mattress services, they all guarantee the lowest possible price. Try calling two, back and forth, a few times, and watch how they keep lowering their prices to beat the competitor!

When shopping for a new couch or chair, especially for us short, vertically challenged people, bring a good book. Make yourself comfortable and sit and read for 15 to 30 minutes.

You've spent the entire day shopping for new furniture or accents for your home and yet nothing seems quite right. You come home exhausted and in ill spirits. You grab the newspaper to check out the ads and possibly something there will light up that spark in your eyes and put that spring in your step.

| Inexpensive Furniture at Yard Sales
|
|
I have been able to get some great deals on furniture at yard sales! You really have to shop around because at one sale you may see a kitchen/dining room type chair for $12 and the next place something similar will be just $2. Chairs with damaged straw seats can be used outside as a planter.

| The Complete Guide to Buying New (Or Old) Furniture
|
|
By Pamela Cole Harris

If you are like me, your investment in furniture has to last!
It has to be durable, beautiful and a good buy for my money. You
all know that a good buy doesn't necessarily mean cheap, but it
does mean that the value in years of problem-free use. I want to
know that the furniture will last at least as long as it took to
make the money to buy it! (And in some furniture I have seen, it
was a distinct possibility that it wouldn't survive the trip
home!)
