Post by: sgluckadoo on August 01, 2012, 09:12:52 pm
Do you have matching furniture or mismatched furniture, and which do you prefer?

I cant decide which I prefer. My furniture is currently mismatched, but I have had matching sofa, loveseat, etc. in the past.

I like mixing old furniture with new...I also like mixing textures.  Yet everything still goes together but not matching per say.  I usually buy one or two nice pieces and then work around them with items I find at garage sales or estate sales.  I used to love watching trading spaces... Enjoy your day.

I am sorry to say, but I got a good chuckle from your question.  Thank you for starting my day out with a smile.

I click online for pennies where I can, what do you think my furniture is?  I have what I can afford to pick up where I can, when I can.

I prefer matched and am mostly matched, but in the past, economic considerations have kept me mismatched.

I have matching furniture. I like to change my color scheme often, so I need something to remain a constant.

Comfort is ALL that matters, whether it matches or not... we just got rid of a wonderful sofa that matched EVERYTHING, but my hubby hated it because it was uncomfortable...

I have a matching couch and loveseat.  But because I got them when I had young kids in and out of my house all the time they have matching slip covers.  I also have a gliding rocking chair that I made cushion covers for so it also matches the couch and loveseat.

I try my best to keep all my furniture matching, but sometimes there is just nothing you could do. So for me, mostly matched haha. I would love to have everything match, that would just make me oh so happy.

Mine is mismatched because I lost some things in a hurricane and haven't been able to redecorate the way I'd like.

I don't have enough furniture for it to "match" or "not match".  :P But I suppose most of it has a black vibe going on.

My TV stand matches my bookshelf; does that count??

all of my furniture is mismatched. i've never bought a "set"
of anything in my life, and i never will! not even my dishes.
i like interesting/ecclectic.

even though i'm mismatchy, i'm rather picky about my furniture.
i don't just throw anything together. i do a lot with color schemes
and pull everything together that way.

I have had to  mix and match my furniture, also.  I'm comfortable where I live and don't have to worry about torn, broken or stained furniture.  If something happens to my furniture, I don't panic.  I just replace it.  Viola!

My furniture is mismatched and I prefer them to match with each other. However, I'm happy with my furniture because they are comfortable at least.

I have mismatched furniture. For the most part I don't mind I just replace things as I need them and try to match it better the next time around. Many furniture items were cheap or donated when I was younger and I still have them. Maybe someday I will be able to replace some of them for more attractive furniture but until then it is functional. If I ever wanted to change it up I could paint some of my mismatched dressers the same color.

Its all matched, my husband picks everything out, our whole living room is tigers and stuff. We got trees too. the cat thinks he lives in the wild, even tried to climb the patio door the other day, probably cuz our living room looks like a jungle.
