Flourish My Dear

When you’re first starting out, it can be tough to furnish your home. With frequent moves, furniture from one place may not work in another. This week we take a look at 3 versatile pieces of furniture that can easily move from place to place.

1. Console Table

First, what is a console table? It’s a long, narrow table about 30″-36″ tall that is meant to fit against a wall. Console tables can serve multiple purposes and be put in almost any room in your home. In an entryway, a console table can provide convenient storage for belongings like keys, mail and purses. Placed in the dining room, a console table can be a server or used for additional storage for dishes. And they work perfectly well on the back of a sofa creating a great place to display decorative accessories, such as plants or photos.

2. Small Ottomans

I love using small ottomans in a design. They’re so versatile and a great way to bring in some additional color. They come in so many different colors, patterns, shapes and sizes. Use for extra seating, propping up your feet, an alternative to a coffee table and even extra storage. Like the console table, they can go in multiple rooms including your family room, bedroom and even your bathroom.

3. Small Accent Chair

A small accent chair is probably one of the most used pieces of furniture you’ll own. Anywhere you need an extra seat – for a large family gathering in the family room, dinner party at your dining table, in your bedroom for relaxing, and again, even your bathroom if you have space. Choose one in a multi-color, fun print fabric, or go neutral so you can use it with different color palettes. Or make it a true accent with a really bold color like the orange chair used as a desk chair in the featured photo.

Investing in these 3 versatile pieces of furniture can help you create a stylish and functional home regardless of where you live. And knowing you can use them in a variety of ways will save you money and stress in the long run.

Make your home functional and beautiful so you can flourish.
