Empty Nest: 2 Ideas for a Room Refresh
Has your last child left home for university or college or to begin their career etc. ? You may find yourself with more funds to transform your rooms for your new lifestyle now that the children have left the nest. If so, perhaps you are wondering how to redo your living room or other rooms? Or your furniture looks tired, and you want to replace it with the furniture you truly love.
My Newmarket Ontario clients were essentially empty nesters. The children were either married or about to finish university. So they wanted to revitalize their open-concept living room and dining room. Most of their furniture was given to them by family. Other furniture pieces were bought when the children were younger. It was not what they preferred.
Now that the children were gone, they were ready to buy the higher quality furniture that they liked. For example, they wanted to replace their tired sofa with a love seat.
Also, they liked the idea of buying furniture with staging in mind too. Furthermore, receiving discounts is a great perk when you work with an interior decorator. They liked that idea too.
Idea #1: Choose Neutral Coloured Furniture Fabric
Together, we picked a contemporary love seat that refreshed the room. The light-coloured upholstery fabric lightened and brightened the room. It is the perfect style of furniture for staging too. Because it is contemporary and it has neutral coloured fabric.

Idea #2: Pick the Appopriate Furniture Style
The wife’s parents gave them their dining room table and chairs. The style was not to their liking, and they wanted it to coordinate with a farmhouse-style buffet they owned and loved. I helped them choose modern farmhouse-style dining room furniture that was to their liking. The furniture allowed them to entertain their friends and their growing family. The neutral coloured chair fabric was home staging worthy as well.
Now, they are enjoying their revitalized living room and dining room. Lynteriors helped them and Lynteriors can help you create your dream rooms too.
