How attached are you to your furniture? When I paid $1000 each for Kindle Queen Anne dining chairs in the ‘80s I expected them to be with me forever! But the next house had 12-15’ ceilings and they looked like dollhouse furniture. Our son moved back to Arizona and the problem was temporarily solved as his new home had low ceilings! I found the perfect chairs for my new move at a great price during the recession and now we’re into contemporary! Maybe the younger generation has the best idea – inexpensive furniture that gets dumped every time you move! Or if you furnish the home perfectly the new owner may want to purchase the furniture.
AND what about the family pieces that have memories? I had to part with the Bentwood rocker my husband gave me before we were married, but no one had ever sat in it – too deep!
So what is your goal? A breathtaking space that is perfect or room full of memories?
