There are at least three things you’ll spend the most for in life: a house, car, and furniture.
The risks may not be as high when you buy a bed that doesn’t fit your bedroom as when you buy a secondhand home, which you realise a little too late that has a lot of repair issues. However, the cost of such furniture mistakes can still add up in the long run.
Avoid these mistakes when furniture shopping AT ALL COSTS.
Forgetting to Measure
Measuring furniture is not merely a matter of whether it will fit where you want it to be but in the entryways into your home as well. Otherwise, you could end up shipping the item back to the furniture shop for replacement, at your cost.
Neglecting Proportion
While on the subject of measurements, you should also remember to take proportions into consideration. A cheap storage bed that’s too big for your bedroom doesn't seem pretty convenient, does it?
Choosing Looks Over Comfort/Functionality
Furniture items today are available in almost every look, style, and colour imaginable. While there’s technically no wrong choice,one mistake you can make is choosing a piece that you later realise is not as comfortable or as functional as you want it to be.
Ignoring Colour
As many paints do, furniture colours may look different in catalogues than they do in actual. Here, you can go the safe route by choosing furniture in neutral colours. This is particularly helpful if you’re shopping from an online furniture shop.
Impulse Buying
As much as you want to get done with decorating your home, it doesn’t give you an excuse to buy everything all at once. You’ll want to have enough time to think things through and make sure every item has a place in your home.
