The advantages are that they can enjoy the sun and fun in December and return home when the weather is more palatable. </p><p>But how do you prepare both your northern home and your Florida home for an extended absence? Leaving for a few weeks is not always a big deal, but if you leave for a few months or more, there are some steps you should take to ensure your home is safe, clean, and intact for your return. </p><h2>Why Preparation is Important</h2><p>The longer you’re away from your home, the greater the chance that a damaging event can happen. Your roof can develop a leak, the water heater can break and flood the basement or garage, or you could be the victim of vandalism or burglary. Sure, some of these events could happen whether you’re home or away, but if you’re home or nearby, you can take measures to mitigate the damage. </p><h2>Tips For Preparing Your Home Against Damage</h2><p>Whether you’re preparing your northern home for a long trip to Florida or your Florida home for a return north, the following tips will help preserve the comfortable state of your home. </p><h3>Ask A Neighbor to Check In</h3><p>If you have indoor plants, you may have already thought about this, but even if your interior is decorated with faux foliage, your neighbor can check around and look for anything of concern: a cracked window, leaks, odors, or anything that’s out of place. They can also take in the mail and water the plants. </p><h3>Buy a Dehumidifier</h3><p>We believe having a dehumidifier in Florida — where humidity is frequently in the 80s and 90s — is essential. Some models have an attachment for a garden hose to drain automatically. If you’re not going to be there to empty the water trap, you’ll need this feature. Can you imagine what several months of humidity could do to the supple leather of this <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/astuzia-5-pc-reclining-sectional-sofa/1303517839" href="https://www.baers.com/item/astuzia-5-pc-reclining-sectional-sofa/1303517839">Natuzzi Astuzia 5-Piece Reclining Sectional</a>?</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6UuqyS8DALWswM2t2pwntSErUEZft62lBRfgks1rpn3lCX9zBz3pc7i6nRPLkaQ8aaCIRG53fuMds5ElF1R0gRnVtnudgxIyhSdGeAxmGecz-EDfDJWaxqNqz1__uF0vWM7xW_4kPr0wxY4Ww9FvQuFsCGzaWE8Sdv4jqJOnozYMK9Hw-EpZE4CVn5fc/s878/natuzzi-astuzia-five-piece-power-reclining-sofa%20(1)%20(2).jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" height="331" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6UuqyS8DALWswM2t2pwntSErUEZft62lBRfgks1rpn3lCX9zBz3pc7i6nRPLkaQ8aaCIRG53fuMds5ElF1R0gRnVtnudgxIyhSdGeAxmGecz-EDfDJWaxqNqz1__uF0vWM7xW_4kPr0wxY4Ww9FvQuFsCGzaWE8Sdv4jqJOnozYMK9Hw-EpZE4CVn5fc/w483-h331/natuzzi-astuzia-five-piece-power-reclining-sofa%20(1)%20(2).jpeg" width="483" /></a></div><h3>Don’t Completely Shut Off Your HVAC System</h3><p>For the same reason we mentioned in the previous section, you will want to leave your HVAC system running. You don’t have to keep your Florida home cooled to 72 degrees when you’re not there, but you don’t want your interior to climb to the 80s. High temperatures can cause wooden furniture to expand and contract, causing it to crack. If you set your thermostat to 79 or 80, your bill will remain relatively low, and it will keep your home ventilated. You may also leave a ceiling fan on to promote airflow. </p><p>A beautiful, high-quality piece like the <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/easton-hills-credenza/139411324" href="https://www.baers.com/item/easton-hills-credenza/139411324">Easton Hills Relaxed Vintage Credenza</a> may be durable enough for extensive use, but high humidity can shorten its lifespan. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-ZQD1jSVZ_0u4yPQgK57-U2eZUZhWroJs-1zWurKU2uLQqgHcHJD8dc9Z_aVy9wbd5mVM4sCNZ6X0BMxD0H0C7ZNrzUWZeP4HpiYRX7L15MzzE7-n2Bvxv370YJ4LTe8SRIrhgEjKr6wbZjH1o3LVPs9M5VeZQxoFlW1MiEi2Q_LNuEZMJTsmIf6n1oc/s1248/relaxed-vintage-credenza.webp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1248" data-original-width="1248" height="419" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-ZQD1jSVZ_0u4yPQgK57-U2eZUZhWroJs-1zWurKU2uLQqgHcHJD8dc9Z_aVy9wbd5mVM4sCNZ6X0BMxD0H0C7ZNrzUWZeP4HpiYRX7L15MzzE7-n2Bvxv370YJ4LTe8SRIrhgEjKr6wbZjH1o3LVPs9M5VeZQxoFlW1MiEi2Q_LNuEZMJTsmIf6n1oc/w419-h419/relaxed-vintage-credenza.webp" width="419" /></a></div><h3>Let the Police Department Know the House Will Be Empty</h3><p>Many Florida police departments provide extra watch services for homes and businesses that will be unoccupied for periods of time. It lets the officer patrolling your zone know to keep an eye out for your property. Additionally, you should do your best to give your home a “lived-in” appearance. That means you leave a light or two on, make sure you either stop your mail or have a neighbor bring it in, and your landscaping is maintained. </p><h3>Hire a Housekeeper</h3><p>Few things are quite as satisfying as coming home to a clean home. Without expending a fortune, you can hire a housekeeper to come in every two weeks for half a day. In addition to dusting, ventilating your home, and conditioning furniture, they can water the plants, toss out junk mail, and examine the home for any signs of neglect. You may also choose to have a deep clean done while you’re away. </p><h3>Have a Storm Contingency Plan</h3><p>This works both ways. If you’re away from Florida during hurricane season, you need a plan to prepare your property ahead of a storm. If you’re away from your northern home during the winter, your property may experience a blizzard in your absence. </p><h2>Taking Advantage of Your Absence </h2><p>If you aren’t going to be home for a few months, it may be the ideal time to tackle extensive home remodeling or home renovation projects. You can avoid the dust and disruption while you’re gone and return to an amazing new home. </p><p>Who wouldn’t want to spend the summer away and then return to this Florida dining room featuring the Tommy Bahama Home Ocean Breeze <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/ocean-breeze-formal-dining-room-group/255115226" href="https://www.baers.com/item/ocean-breeze-formal-dining-room-group/255115226">Formal Dining Room Group</a>? </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifI_TFPiHMLqDVBeYAEvfZ2g-MfrhbIQ8pTVlEaz7iWfye1YV3qsKhxSa0f4xE97VmJMUwBXOWV4uV1V-1hheRcVyz8ITj4Qlx7Z7tPjvQt02V2IZR8YC-CM8WPupZIz8tcuUMurYwBfMGHvxRIlx2H34li8OwZlRjt6GXon21Ylr1NauKFPQsg7laTP4/s1248/turtle-point-buffet%20(1)%20(1).webp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1248" data-original-width="1248" height="407" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifI_TFPiHMLqDVBeYAEvfZ2g-MfrhbIQ8pTVlEaz7iWfye1YV3qsKhxSa0f4xE97VmJMUwBXOWV4uV1V-1hheRcVyz8ITj4Qlx7Z7tPjvQt02V2IZR8YC-CM8WPupZIz8tcuUMurYwBfMGHvxRIlx2H34li8OwZlRjt6GXon21Ylr1NauKFPQsg7laTP4/w407-h407/turtle-point-buffet%20(1)%20(1).webp" width="407" /></a></div><br /><p>If you are planning to remodel, make sure that you stop by one of Baer’s 16 <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/stores/" href="https://www.baers.com/stores/">Florida furniture stores</a>.

These joyous occasions often occur in our homes, and while we all would like to believe that we're entertainment-ready, it's helpful to have a little notice. Hosting a small party for family and close friends can be a great way to bring people together without investing a substantial amount of time.</p><p>If you are seeking a solution that will be both memorable and relatively easy, we recommend hosting a wine tasting or cocktail party. </p><h2>The Advantages of a Smaller Event</h2><p>When you invite people to a cocktail hour or wine tasting, you manage their expectations. They are aware that your event will include alcohol and food but not a full dinner. It also has a finite time frame since these types of parties usually have a one-hour to three-hour lifespan. </p><p>Additionally, you can schedule your small party at an earlier time. That way, guests with conflicting plans can excuse themselves and continue on to their other obligations. Finally, there are several different approaches to serving cocktails or conducting a wine tasting, and all are conducive to both small and large spaces. </p><h2>Steps to Hosting a Small Event</h2><h3>1. Choose a Date</h3><p>Weekend nights between Thanksgiving and New Year are at a premium. If you want to have a weekend event, set your start time early. “We’d like to welcome you to our home for a cocktail hour starting at 5:30 p.m. and ending at 7:30 p.m. Hors d’oeuvres will be served.”</p><h3>2. Procure Alcohol, Mixers, and Garnishes</h3><p>You are not required to have every ingredient for your cocktail hour, nor do you have to purchase 20 different bottles of wine for your tasting.</p><p>For a cocktail hour – stock essential drink ingredients or preannounce the drink menu. “Guests will have a selection of cocktails including the Old Fashioned, Vodka Martini, or our Signature Margarita.” This approach lets guests know that if they want something else, they should bring the ingredients. </p><p>For a wine tasting – Tasting pours are two to three ounces, which means a bottle of wine has about 10 taste servings. If you’re hosting eight or more people, purchase two bottles for each vintage and serve a minimum of five different types of wine. You can preannounce the wine or just let it be a surprise for your guests. Expect to buy 8 to 12 bottles. </p><h3>3. Serve Light Foods</h3><p>Keep it light and prepare in advance with these popular snack items:</p><ul><li data-gc-list-depth="1" data-gc-list-style="bullet">Charcuterie Boards have become extremely popular in recent years, and they are an ideal selection for both wine tastings and cocktail parties. You can prepare a charcuterie board in advance, cover it with plastic wrap or foil, and serve it right out of the refrigerator. </li><li data-gc-list-depth="1" data-gc-list-style="bullet">If you have a sommelier you trust, ask them which cheeses pair well with the wines you’re planning on serving. Like a charcuterie board, you can slice the cheese in advance and place small cards in front of each one to let guests know which wine to pair with each cheese. </li><li data-gc-list-depth="1" data-gc-list-style="bullet">Crudité is another great option — particularly if you have a vegetarian or vegan friend. Like the other suggestions, you can do the prep in advance without worrying about it going bad. </li></ul><h3>4. Choose Your Setting </h3><p>These types of parties are perfect for smaller condos and apartments, but even if you have a large Florida home, you can host them in a single room. In fact, selecting a smaller area within your home may make the event cozier and more intimate. The obvious choices are the dining room, kitchen, or living room. </p><p>Here are some examples of spaces that would be ideal for a smaller holiday party and some suggestions for how you can utilize each space. </p><p>This open-space dining area features the Coastal Rectangle Dining Table from <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/surfrider-dining-table/1770419473" href="https://www.baers.com/item/surfrider-dining-table/1770419473">Hooker Furniture’s Surfrider Collection</a>. Seating eight people, the table is large enough to hold several bottles of wine, a selection of cheeses, wine glasses, and small plates. The host can either take the head of the table or walk around and pour as they present each new wine. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAsHS6u7O5dQDTd9B0GtcFhxxO0YUKkxJK07Mbb1-Uomf0_zZwpgee1VaR0puCbuKeK928nwMWPiIuXi3poH5KHu6-U7Vmgn4-qkKvmjE1ABvGzyv_uaucwGp7iuYNuQG0CyMEOtj_MyGG3CsoA1xi1jqWojcDCcLTwTZ6K59hd_W25gAww5AJvmxjl9E/s1248/hooker-furniture-surfrider-collection-table.webp" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1248" data-original-width="1248" height="438" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAsHS6u7O5dQDTd9B0GtcFhxxO0YUKkxJK07Mbb1-Uomf0_zZwpgee1VaR0puCbuKeK928nwMWPiIuXi3poH5KHu6-U7Vmgn4-qkKvmjE1ABvGzyv_uaucwGp7iuYNuQG0CyMEOtj_MyGG3CsoA1xi1jqWojcDCcLTwTZ6K59hd_W25gAww5AJvmxjl9E/w438-h438/hooker-furniture-surfrider-collection-table.webp" width="438" /></a></div><p>One of the most essential pieces of entertainment furniture you can own for your home is a long buffet.

When people can’t dine out, go to shows, or attend sporting events, their discretionary money goes into buying home consumer goods.

Trendy platforms like Pinterest, Instagram, and, more recently, TikTok have piqued our collective interest in interior decorating by steering us to content that shows gorgeous living rooms, bedrooms, home offices, dining rooms, etc. </p><h2 style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">How to Get Organized in 2023</h2><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you’re reading this article, it’s probably because you really want to organize your space. You’ve probably already cleared out your CD towers and gotten rid of obsolete VHS players, but what remains, you want to keep. Here are some tips for organizing your space. </p><h3 style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Credenzas, Side Boards, and Closed TV Consoles </h3><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">There are few things more beneficial when you’re trying to create hidden storage than a cabinet — even better when that cabinet includes features like adjustable shelves and cable management. Introducing a closed console to your living room or a sideboard to your dining room gives you the spare storage you need to stow items that don’t need to be out every day. </p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgb(59 130 246 / 0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; box-sizing: inherit; margin-top: 0px;" />Additionally, it provides surface area for more displayable items.

It should be a place you can escape from the stress and craziness of the world, even if only for a little while. Your bedroom should express your style, immerse you in your favorite colors, surround you with your trappings, and elicit feelings of both serenity and joy. <p></p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">You can transform your bedroom into the perfect haven for relaxation with these interior decorating <a href="https://www.baers.com/bedroom.aspx">bedroom ideas</a>.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">1) Keep It Cozy and Simple</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">No matter what style you choose — traditional, transitional, modern, or tropical — a bedroom should be cozy and simple. Keep at least three feet between the bed and sidewalls or large furniture pieces to make it easy to move around. Maintain a minimum of two feet between furniture such as <a href="https://www.baers.com/browse/dressers-and-chests/16" target="_blank">dressers</a> and tables and the bed. This allows you to move freely through the bedroom.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">When space is free of clutter, it will automatically be more relaxing. A bed, a dresser, a bedside table, and a chair are all you need in the way of furniture. Streamline your accessories, and consider sticking to flowers and candles, some family photos, and a stunning piece of art on the wall.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">2) Select a Soothing Color</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Bold, bright primary colors tend to be too energetic for the bedroom. Instead, select soothing, restful neutrals, such as gentle blues, barely-there pinks, and muted greens to create a mood of cozy comfort. Using toned-down hues of your favorite colors is another way to make the space relaxing. If you love orange, choose earthy pumpkin rather than bright tangerine.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjukXgJOopNMJqVeV8ffbXRqsMyLFKNtWqP-C-XhFsQG2vD9qNY0fDLsa2nxMO9OlOxVp1U9Q5UP7RXDB3qyrPngaT-4z7btiK-Uc3vxiCR_TmiWv3muQV3M-TjsyAa5a9ktN8uwqhmdVAP5ZRL-BqXmVuRu-rZ_46czDyFor2gPWwE1kuaiRX5PYBW/s878/bali-hai-swivel-chair.webp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" height="321" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjukXgJOopNMJqVeV8ffbXRqsMyLFKNtWqP-C-XhFsQG2vD9qNY0fDLsa2nxMO9OlOxVp1U9Q5UP7RXDB3qyrPngaT-4z7btiK-Uc3vxiCR_TmiWv3muQV3M-TjsyAa5a9ktN8uwqhmdVAP5ZRL-BqXmVuRu-rZ_46czDyFor2gPWwE1kuaiRX5PYBW/w468-h321/bali-hai-swivel-chair.webp" width="468" /></a></div><br /><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;"><br /></p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">3) Right-Size the Furniture</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">In addition to furnishing the space sparingly, ensure that the furniture is the right size for the room. Measure and make a floor plan if you are purchasing new furniture. If you have room, add an <a href="https://www.baers.com/browse/outdoor/ottoman/573">ottoman</a>, chair, or bench at the foot of the bed.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoNOSon4tfsjUHLFNTSnOd-gRjYNB2vSUXHZ1ZqAwAnBOA0d_qJDj1pt0mmHIWfEJ00ssaKmxL549we7iv0oqngVRHZviVO6F8vkkNEmM6Ca_IQtoxlUXYLVWJV1nDxmx6bXrodAaFZgL9Sn0sWo8xf_z7NoakAcq_AhgTeyjDMmkMOJRdnYAyEroG/s878/stone-leigh-warren-ottoman.webp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" height="309" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoNOSon4tfsjUHLFNTSnOd-gRjYNB2vSUXHZ1ZqAwAnBOA0d_qJDj1pt0mmHIWfEJ00ssaKmxL549we7iv0oqngVRHZviVO6F8vkkNEmM6Ca_IQtoxlUXYLVWJV1nDxmx6bXrodAaFZgL9Sn0sWo8xf_z7NoakAcq_AhgTeyjDMmkMOJRdnYAyEroG/w452-h309/stone-leigh-warren-ottoman.webp" width="452" /></a></div><br /><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;"><br /></p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Avoid heavy, large furniture if your bedroom is on the small side. On the other hand, if your bedroom is big, make sure your furniture is proportionate. Small furniture will be lost in a large room, and furniture that is too big will make the room look small.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">4) Dress the Bed in Luxurious Linens</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Get the nicest, prettiest, most luxurious sheets you can. Choose 100 percent cotton and a thread count of at least 350. The higher the thread count, the better. You won't be sorry.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">5) Layer the Lighting</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Pay close attention to the layers of light in the bedroom. This means to make sure you have ambient lighting, task lighting, and accent lighting. Choose a pretty chandelier or pendant to light up the entire space, a task lamp for the bedside table, and accent lights to softly illuminate the walls.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">For maximum lighting control, put your bedroom lights on a dimmer and ensure you have a separate on/off switch for each one. Then you can light only the area you wish to.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">6) Dress the Windows</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">A beautifully dressed window puts the finishing touch on a bedroom. Window dressings are a great way to add pattern, color, texture, and softness to the bedroom. Soft sheer curtains with blinds create a gentle look with plenty of privacy. Choose drapes with lining or opaque blinds to keep the sun out when you want to sleep in.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">7) Keep Tech Out of the Bedroom</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Try to keep cell phones, computers, televisions, or exercise machines out of the bedroom. This is your space to become refreshed and renewed. You'll enjoy having a room, especially for reading, sleeping, and relaxing.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0.75rem;"><br style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /></p>Lamark Mediahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16519890400410710294noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073864587639690890.post-49239316548025746832022-11-29T10:51:00.000-08:002022-11-29T10:51:23.164-08:00 Calming Decorating Ideas to Make Your Home Feel More Soothing<p> <span style="font-size: 1.125rem;">Who doesn't want a more soothing home? After a long, arduous day at work, nothing is better than just being able to sit down and relax. Don't feel relaxed in the surroundings of your home?</span></p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">You can make your home more soothing and conducive to these relaxing moments with just a few decorating tweaks! Having a more comfortable home is vital because being more at ease at home can mean better sleep, improved interpersonal relationships, and an overall sense of well-being. Follow along as we review some methods to make your home more soothing and relaxing, such as updates to colors, lighting, and ergonomics in your home.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">Using Relaxing Colors in Your Furniture</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">The color of your furniture is a key factor in how naturally soothing the room is. Neutral and light colors tend to be more relaxing than bold or saturated colors if the neutral and light colors are mixed or layered. Solid colors, as opposed to mixes of colors, are also good bets for soothing qualities. Blues, whites, and similar colors are generally considered the most relaxing. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Take, for instance, this <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/cb52-leather-sofa/1054303399" href="https://www.baers.com/item/cb52-leather-sofa/1054303399" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Chateau D'Ax CB52 Sofa</a>.

Complicated designs are generally not soothing if they are free form, so it would be better to stick to geometric and symmetrical patterns if you are going to use them to add depth to the room. A tessellation, for example, is much more likely to be soothing because it's predictable when compared to, say, a Jackson Pollock painting. </p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">Soothing Lighting</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Another critical element of making your home feel more soothing is the lighting. Harsh, fluorescent lights can make even the coziest space feel like an emergency room, so the lighting you have in the rooms you will frequent is of great importance. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">You generally want to avoid harsh lighting and instead opt for soft light throughout. You can even use tinted lights to create a certain mood in your chosen space. A darkly tinted lamp can help contribute to the room's soft light and transform the area's mood characteristics. A dark red tint, for example, can work magic on a room decorated in neutral colors. It adds a pop of color as well as an overall relaxing feel to the space. Just be sure you do not have any furniture with strong colors that might clash with the tint. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">Remember that the type of lightbulb you use can significantly affect the room's lighting. Fluorescent lights look a certain way, and alternative kinds of lightbulbs can overhaul the look of the room by adjusting the natural light in the room. You should also ensure that the whole space is well-lit, as dark areas in rooms that are otherwise well-lit are associated with eye strain, which is the opposite of soothing.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem;">Ergonomics Add to Relaxation</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem;">The importance of ergonomics in making your home feel soothing cannot be overstated.

While we do have more than our share of new construction, many homes were built during the 1940s, 1950s, and even earlier. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">These vintage Florida homes are some of the architectural jewels of the state, but they also present decorating challenges. The interior design professionals at Baer’s Furniture have seen numerous older homes during their time in the field and have developed tried and true solutions to some of the obstacles that older homes present. </p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">What Are Some of the Features of an Older Florida Home?</h2><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Air Circulation Features</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many older Florida homes were designed before central air conditioning became popular. Consequently, these homes are set up to take advantage of the cooling options available to them: fans, ceiling fans, screened windows, bare floors, and front-to-back hallways – halls that connect the front door to the back to allow a cross-breeze. </p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cooling Solutions</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Because heat rises, ceilings are often higher than in northern homes. Terrazzo floors became very popular in Florida homes because they don’t retain heat in the way that carpeted floors do. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Oftentimes, you’ll also find an exposed brick wall or a white-washed brick wall in one or more rooms. This is because brick slowly absorbs heat throughout the day, and releases it at night.</p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, );

If it’s an item you need more frequent access to, like a circuit breaker panel, you can use wall art to cover up the offending metal encasement. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcXJt30y981gSBJLAGMIMaU_Pz3uiztpE5Gm151O_Pyxl2in6HpEiFDx8naaAL7bmhINJuYCI3uLIc6CpeymHRCCnaLHO8-wK5K4fcX2wp5dOncRhTJ_cjuKRwyIHt8dRj2Km-xK63LBaOctgS8UmE7723dytgKawrmpN5ToNGDg3rKRrmW4q-IvB7/s878/art-furniture-arch-curio%20(1).jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" height="388" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcXJt30y981gSBJLAGMIMaU_Pz3uiztpE5Gm151O_Pyxl2in6HpEiFDx8naaAL7bmhINJuYCI3uLIc6CpeymHRCCnaLHO8-wK5K4fcX2wp5dOncRhTJ_cjuKRwyIHt8dRj2Km-xK63LBaOctgS8UmE7723dytgKawrmpN5ToNGDg3rKRrmW4q-IvB7/w567-h388/art-furniture-arch-curio%20(1).jpeg" width="567" /></a></div><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">For every decorative obstacle, there’s a workaround.

According to the design influencer Lex Nicoleta, who was credited with coining the term “Coastal Gran,” this decorative motif is for anyone who “loves Nancy Meyers movies, coastal vibes, recipes and cooking, Ina Garten and cozy interiors.” And despite the quirky name, Coastal Grandmother is a legitimate and appealing design style growing in popularity. </span></p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">What Exactly is Coastal Grandmother Design?</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Coastal Grandmother combines the light, cool tones of coastal design with the warmth and coziness of Grandmillenial. If you have a coastal bent but find the whitewashed décor a bit cold, this might be just your niche. </p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">How to Achieve Coastal Grandmother</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">By now, you’ve probably perused more than a few images of Coastal Grandmother rooms on Google, and you’ve made up your mind. But admiring a look and achieving it are two different things, so here are some tips from the design experts at Baer’s Furniture for achieving Coastal Grandmother in your home. </p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Choose Warm Whites</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">White is at the core of a Coastal Grandmother space, but if you choose the wrong tone, you may push the needle more toward coastal than coastal grandmother. For your walls, select a creamier or buttery shade to make the space feel warmer. You can use colder whites or gray whites for the trim or as a secondary color, but if your primary color is white, we recommend warmer shades. </p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Textures are Essential</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Coastal Grandmother design requires textures that feel good to the touch. Afghan throws, knitted toss pillows, and warm fabric chairs are practically requirements for the Coastal Grandmother style. With this in mind, you’ll want to be careful incorporating leather pieces. While they may have a place in a CG room, leather can overwhelm the aesthetic. For example, the <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/candace-curved-sofa/2070403473" href="https://www.baers.com/item/candace-curved-sofa/2070403473" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: transparent; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Candace Curved Sofa</a> is available in both leather and fabric (fabric shown here). For such a large piece, we think that the fabric works best in Coastal Gran. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzXnJatZOjZrABtFhjqwzP1d9gjQkcPI_j2IAm6qPPgv9mYUHpDjMZdxUyr7v2rt4MBL40bwEQ7ZvdezaNPsb7Xb_08lGkdokb19buIJIbegLP1xElLMhm5ubYYbi3tC0op1RU3yuqXWP3Zm28H-xpHMUSbgqnGQAIYGjBUqSfktIlsuYD_Tkp9VjK/s1767/Bernhardt%20Candace%20Transitional%20Curved%20Sofa%20With%20Nailhead%20Trim.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="760" data-original-width="1767" height="277" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzXnJatZOjZrABtFhjqwzP1d9gjQkcPI_j2IAm6qPPgv9mYUHpDjMZdxUyr7v2rt4MBL40bwEQ7ZvdezaNPsb7Xb_08lGkdokb19buIJIbegLP1xElLMhm5ubYYbi3tC0op1RU3yuqXWP3Zm28H-xpHMUSbgqnGQAIYGjBUqSfktIlsuYD_Tkp9VjK/w640-h277/Bernhardt%20Candace%20Transitional%20Curved%20Sofa%20With%20Nailhead%20Trim.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Add Color and Dimension with Accent Pieces</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Coastal Grandmother is more than just a white room with white pieces of furniture, but it also doesn’t have the over-the-top colors and patterns of Grandmillenial. Colors and accents are more subtle in CG spaces. Consequently, Coastal Grandmother style requires muted or neutral tones. Incorporate colors with area rugs, lampshades, drapes, or even an accent chair.

It’s warm, comfortable, and even stain-resistant, and the tones are just right for this aesthetic. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCSoFj71vq15oMx0NC0PL0LTiJtcBHho0Y6XbI-GISQ87lP3qor-A13sSVQh39Ip6TF9bXznCh2HmirNg3ZCj3cdrgcv2ldD6J2zV_kYR9RkjVOzoQJmCgBFn5FP8yGexY5BgiyhbosERmytK3jRDLaJBnMfAX_wN9DkMZFSlCQPDkBDuviE7B8RHf/s878/times-square-accent-chair%20(1).jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" height="438" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCSoFj71vq15oMx0NC0PL0LTiJtcBHho0Y6XbI-GISQ87lP3qor-A13sSVQh39Ip6TF9bXznCh2HmirNg3ZCj3cdrgcv2ldD6J2zV_kYR9RkjVOzoQJmCgBFn5FP8yGexY5BgiyhbosERmytK3jRDLaJBnMfAX_wN9DkMZFSlCQPDkBDuviE7B8RHf/w640-h438/times-square-accent-chair%20(1).jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Avoid Clutter</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the mistakes that people often make when going for a Coastal Grandmother look is leaning too hard into Granmillenial style. While the two styles share common shoots, CG doesn’t have the busyness or overlapping patterns of Grandmillenial. For example, with Grandmillenial, you can have a striped sofa, a pin-dot-patterned pillow, and a plaid throw (if they are from compatible color schemes), but with Coastal Grandmother, you have to make a choice: one pattern would be the rule here. You could drape a patterned throw across the cream-colored <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/f/tryp-swivel-glider-recliner/1709587487" href="https://www.baers.com/item/f/tryp-swivel-glider-recliner/1709587487" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: transparent; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Tryp Swivel Glider</a>, for instance, but not its heavily patterned counterpart. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGK0Oo_JpvwnGJ0iszLUmz4N2rjrmt2oB0ZB0a8sGjxLFwl6LX5emjzCIW-LXMqIYQyW2oeDjV0gjb5g72vN-V3u6nlJ5UPcZb6yKOhs4I9S5XolRoXZoRuxwU7PPI4GDkxCr7Ti-ZdUhm23QjR3juK89CbSZki9rcfGRTgrRZhtWRADDPg6Zl123m/s878/tryp-swivel-glider-recliner%20(1).jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" height="438" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGK0Oo_JpvwnGJ0iszLUmz4N2rjrmt2oB0ZB0a8sGjxLFwl6LX5emjzCIW-LXMqIYQyW2oeDjV0gjb5g72vN-V3u6nlJ5UPcZb6yKOhs4I9S5XolRoXZoRuxwU7PPI4GDkxCr7Ti-ZdUhm23QjR3juK89CbSZki9rcfGRTgrRZhtWRADDPg6Zl123m/w640-h438/tryp-swivel-glider-recliner%20(1).jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">How Coastal Grandmother is Different From Coastal and Grandmillenial</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">When two styles merge to create a new look, fine lines are drawn in the sand.

It favors cool tones, light or white wood furniture, light-tone area rugs, nautical themes, and more. The density of the décor should be on the airy, less cluttered side. Coastal Grandmother borrows heavily from the color palette and layout of the coastal theme. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Grandmillenial is a maximalist approach to design that celebrates the style and furniture of generations gone by. Grandmillenial features prints, patterns, and cozy furniture, among other things. Coastal Grandmother intersperses these design elements throughout what would be an otherwise coastal decorating scheme. If Grandmillenial makes you think of your grandmother's furniture, Coastal Gran should make you think of your cool, beach grandmother.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">With millions of feet of showroom space throughout Florida, Baer’s Furniture has high-quality furniture that fits many different decorative motifs, including Coastal Grandmother.

Keep an eye out for alligators and look for all sorts of native birds as you explore the wildlife surrounding Melbourne. These wetlands have diverse flora and fauna native to the state of Florida. You'll soak up some sun during a trip to this wetland system, so SPF 30 or higher is definitely recommended. You'll also potentially see some exciting animals and unique plants. While it might be tempting to get a souvenir picture with a wild animal, we recommend you maintain your distance. <p></p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">2.

This modern museum will take you from the earliest space endeavors to the headlines of today's news articles. If you plan your visit well enough in advance, you can get a close-up view of a NASA or SpaceX rocket launch. Of course, we are able to see these spectacles from Melbourne proper, but you haven't lived until you've seen a launch up close. You should be aware that missions are often scrubbed due to inclement weather, so if the launch is canceled the day you're there, give it another try. It's only 40 minutes away. </p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">5.

In 2022, the city population was just over 86,400, but there are over a quarter million residences if you include the surrounding areas. With mean incomes for households around $96,000 for families, Melbourne is becoming one of the more affluent cities in the state.

Cats need to scratch, so not having an outlet for this behavior can be the source of a lot of furniture scratching. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Once you have the cat tree/pet bed, you’ll need to still keep your pets off of the furniture “manually” for a little while until they learn the new rules.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">A "Furniture Offering"</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">The next option for keeping your pets off of the furniture is what we like to call a “furniture offering.” This is a situation in which you demarcate one piece of furniture as okay for the pets to use, but not the others. This allows the pet to play on or lay on one piece of furniture in the house, but nothing other than that piece. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Imagine you have a gorgeous <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/stressless-recliners-medium-opal-classic-chair/1625608876" href="https://www.baers.com/item/stressless-recliners-medium-opal-classic-chair/1625608876" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: transparent; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Stressless Recliners Classic Chair</a> you absolutely do not want the pets to be on, so you offer them something else instead.

The best way to implement this is to keep your pet off of all the furniture but the designated piece of furniture “manually” until the animal learns where it is allowed to sit. Usually, a few days to a week or two of continuous reinforcement will result in a pet that knows which piece of furniture it is allowed to be on.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Pet Training</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Pet training can be helpful in keeping pets off of the furniture. You just train the animal to not get on the furniture. This is much easier said than done, and if your pet is having trouble learning this critical behavior, it may be time to call in the professionals. A professional pet trainer can teach your pets to stay off of the furniture without compromise. However, pet training can be expensive.

Furniture pieces that are always luxurious and always functional are what we provide, and 2022 will be no exception.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Here are 3 new and re-invented interior design trends for 2022 according to our stylists.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">1) Rustic Style Re-Invented</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">For a long time, farmhouse chic was very in. The style included elements such as barn doors, natural textures, home accents that looked like old-school jugs of milk, and more. The go-to color for the scheme was gray and whitewashed everything. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">We're not throwing out rustic style altogether, but in 2022 it's getting a major makeover. Instead of farmhouse chic, reinvented rustic is the next trend to look out for. It incorporates many of the original style's favorite elements, such as reclaimed wood with natural texture and grains. However, it also blends in modern elements such as bold colors and contemporary materials such as shiny metallics and ceramics.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">The <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/oyster-bay-hidden-lake-bistro-table-and-stool-set/1080622544" href="https://www.baers.com/item/oyster-bay-hidden-lake-bistro-table-and-stool-set/1080622544" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: transparent; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Oyster Bay Hidden Lake Bistro Table</a> by Lexington is a shining example of this update to rustic.

For a while, we were seeing gray everything. Kitchens, living rooms, and furniture were all gray. It's easy to see why – it's neutral but never boring, classy and sophisticated, and was a welcome change to the over-the-top Tuscan theme that dominated the early 2000s. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">But is gray on its way out in 2022? Not really, according to our design experts, but you can expect to see some changes. In 2022 you're likely to see darker grays on walls, opposed to the light barely-there grays of years past. It's not just the shade that's changing, but the accents and furniture that go with it. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">As far as interior design trends in 2022, look for gray schemes that feature bold accent chairs, sofas, and eclectic end tables with bright pops of color. More specifically, you're likely to see bright sunny yellows and statement-making cyan blues. It's a little more Art Deco with a contemporary twist.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">2022's grays are on full display in this room featuring the <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/loft-highland-park-dining-room-group/1492021854" href="https://www.baers.com/item/loft-highland-park-dining-room-group/1492021854" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: transparent; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Highland Park gray dining room group</a> by Bernhardt Loft.

Full of wicker furniture, greenery and house plants, pastel floral prints, and a deeply nostalgic feel, cottage core has carried over to 2022. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cottage core focuses on simplistic comfort. There are no opulent designs to be found, but instead, you'll see lots of elegant pieces that feature straight lines and cozy home accents like throw blankets and pillows. And don't forget the vases full of fresh flowers as centerpieces on kitchen and <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/browse/dining-room/tables/432" href="https://www.baers.com/browse/dining-room/tables/432" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: transparent; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">dining tables</a>. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, the cottage core of 2020 and 2021 is reinventing itself just a bit. Throughout this year you'll be more likely to see elements of glam and luxury, such as decorative mirrors and wall art, or fine glassware and china, adorning the home. Add elements of lace, linen, and some warmer and cozier elements like shag rugs, and you've got cottage core for 2022. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">To update your cottage core style with 2022 flair, feature your finer things in a <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/arch-salvage-gwynn-curio-china/1708208376" href="https://www.baers.com/item/arch-salvage-gwynn-curio-china/1708208376" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: transparent; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">curio cabinet like this one</a> from A.R.T.

Critics of the trend, however, have claimed that this style tends to be cold and barren. While that is certainly one interpretation of Minimalism, there is no reason why the minimalist concept cannot be warm, as many interior designers have successfully demonstrated. While no decorating trend can last indefinitely, Minimalism offers several benefits to home decorators that may help to keep it alive for a few more years. </p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">What Is Minimalism, and Why Is It So Popular?</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">The minimalist interior design seeks to remove clutter by focusing on essential furnishings. Minimalist homes typically focus on one particular color palette with possibly one or two accompanying accent colors, and the style lends itself to open spaces and floorplans. Minimalist design does not mean doing without items that you need to live comfortably, but instead removing unnecessary things from your living space to enhance comfort and tranquility. The term “decluttering” has become synonymous with minimalism, but you cannot achieve minimalist decor simply by decluttering. Rather, decluttering is an essential step in developing a minimalist environment. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiEHbd1vbbwgs72M9J_bjO-D2XMS2ctNJltsjWc7G8PhEwTBG_Os1d26oZL-ymr4T1fuxKO6Go38ZCnNuBHd-e0vTm_2LF2h897vBMoojGpCZNY27gbGlu9A_LWTLm-AFVFTB3Rb1zoJzvsV-SCHcJ8vPiHrp6O4SQ586roQJcy7OVVRMAE9dhrqYHL=s878" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiEHbd1vbbwgs72M9J_bjO-D2XMS2ctNJltsjWc7G8PhEwTBG_Os1d26oZL-ymr4T1fuxKO6Go38ZCnNuBHd-e0vTm_2LF2h897vBMoojGpCZNY27gbGlu9A_LWTLm-AFVFTB3Rb1zoJzvsV-SCHcJ8vPiHrp6O4SQ586roQJcy7OVVRMAE9dhrqYHL=w400-h274" width="400" /></a></div><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Benefits of Minimalism</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition to being an attractive approach to home decorating, Minimalism can enhance your quality of life in several ways.</p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Creating a Tranquil Living Space</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; background-color: white; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Serif", serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Fans of the minimalist style will often point to its simplicity.

All of this is designed to meet the demands of a busy modern family.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Traditional Leather Furniture</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">What is traditional leather furniture? This is a question we hear quite a bit. With so many options on the market, it's common for shoppers to feel overwhelmed. However, it doesn't have to be this way. There are several key features of traditional leather furniture that make it easy to spot.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">First, the color palette of traditional leather furniture is reasonably straightforward. Think of classic browns and deep espressos. When you imagine a classic leather sectional, one of these colors likely comes to mind. </p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">With traditional leather, you'll see the rounded shapes most associated with the furniture. We're talking about the classic comfy, cushioned backs and seats and stuffed rounded armrests. Additionally, mixed materials and accents are kept to a minimum. You're likely to see gold rivets, perhaps, or wooden feet that match the tone of the leather. </p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Which Leather Is Right for You?</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Now comes the more complicated part — deciding which type of leather furniture is right for your home. Take a moment to think about your needs. Do you have a more modern color palette in your space that may require seating that isn't the classic brown tone? Or, are you more an eclectic soul who appreciates funky accents but still wants the timeless look and feel of leather? These are important questions to take into consideration when determining which type of furniture will best meet your needs.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Additionally, consider the needs of your family and of the space itself. Is the rest of the furniture sleek and minimalistic, or is oversized and fluffy your thing? Do your kids need to charge their tablets and gaming devices in USB ports frequently? Make a note of these questions so that you know what to look for when you begin shopping.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Bottom Line: Contemporary vs. Traditional Leather Furniture</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Ultimately, whether you choose contemporary or traditional <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/browse/scs/all-leather-furniture/2170" href="https://www.baers.com/browse/scs/all-leather-furniture/2170" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">leather furniture</a> will come down to your personal choice and what pieces you like the best.

To have a home that meets the needs of your family AND is worthy of professional photography and a magazine feature, you need to incorporate balanced elements of all three.</p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Decide Your Home's Style</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">First, you need to make some decisions about what you want your cover-worthy home to convey. Keep in mind your own personal style, and start answering some questions. Do you want your living space to be more casual or formal? Would you like it to be traditional or modern? Do you prefer bright colors or a more neutral palette for your color scheme? Answering these questions provides you with an excellent starting point to begin your design journey.</p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Create a Comfortable Space</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Next, a home should be a safe space. It should be where you feel most at ease and relaxed. When the people in a home are comfortable, the vibe permeates the entire area. The feeling of comfort should spread throughout each room. Incorporate lots of comfy seating such as <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/browse/sofas-and-loveseats/635" href="https://www.baers.com/browse/sofas-and-loveseats/635" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">sofas and loveseats</a>, warm and plush bedding, and plenty of blankets and throw pillows.</p><h3 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.75rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Keep in Mind Functional Needs</h3><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Lastly, it's imperative to create a space that functions as you need it to. Think about how much seating you need at the dinner table, whether you have pets or kids who are rough on furniture, and things like how much shelving you need. Then, find furniture and décor pieces that meet those needs and suit your style.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">2) Add Your Own Personal Touches</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">The second tip from expert designers is to add your own personal touches throughout a space. These are the things that truly set your home apart from others. They may include photos of a favorite vacation destination, art from a local artisan, or an ode to family history.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Or, it may simply include pops of your favorite color throughout the space. There is no wrong way to bring in your own personal touch. Some people like to DIY a few projects to display something that's truly their own.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">3) Choose the Right Wall Coverings and Flooring</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Don't forget the walls and flooring! These two things often go overlooked when designing a home, but for a space that's truly magazine-worthy, they're essential. Still keeping in mind comfort, style, and function, choose the wall and floor colors and textures that are best for your unique home.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">For example, maybe you have pets, and installing vinyl or tile floors throughout the house is imperative. If that's the case, spruce up the space and create defined areas using area rugs. Or, perhaps you have a smaller and more compact room that you want to make appear larger. If that's the case, hang some decorative <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/browse/bedroom/mirrors/32" href="https://www.baers.com/browse/bedroom/mirrors/32" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">mirrors</a> to reflect light and open up the area.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">4) Make Sure You Have Enough Storage</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the most important aspects of designing a magazine-worthy home is to minimize the appearance of clutter and create a space that's well-organized. Every item throughout your home should have its own designated space to which it returns when not in use. That includes books and magazines, remotes and electronics, shoes, kitchen gadgets, and just about anything else that comes to mind.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">The key to de-cluttering and organizing a home is to ensure that you have enough storage space. Think of ottomans that open to reveal hidden storage, beds with drawers under the frames, and <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/browse/tv-stands-and-media-cabinets/644" href="https://www.baers.com/browse/tv-stands-and-media-cabinets/644" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">TV stands & media cabinets</a> with ample shelving. Any piece of furniture that doubles as a storage area is an excellent piece to incorporate in your home design.</p><h2 style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 2.25rem; margin-bottom: 0.75rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">5) Choose a Design Theme</h2><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">Choosing a theme for your home helps keep the look cohesive, without being too matchy-matchy. Elements of a design theme include a color palette, which features a few main colors with an array of less prominent accent colors. Additionally, you'll want to decide on a fabric and texture palette. Are you into classic leather furniture or do you want custom upholstery throughout your space?</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">You should also think of a few patterns you'd like to incorporate, without letting it get too busy. Stripes with polka dots combined with plaid and tie-dye, for example, are overwhelming and confusing to the eye. Stripes with solids, however, are visually pleasing. Choose a few complimentary patterned pieces to place throughout the space that really showcase your personal style and design theme.</p><p style="--tw-border-opacity: 1; --tw-ring-color: rgba(59, 130, 246, 0.5); --tw-ring-inset: var(--tw-empty, ); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; border-color: rgba(229, 231, 235, var(--tw-border-opacity)); box-sizing: inherit; caret-color: rgb(41, 51, 61); color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0.75rem; white-space: pre-wrap;">When you keep these 5 design tips in mind, you can create a space that reflects who you are as a family, while also stunning those who come to visit.

Before I get into the specifics of how to get the look in your home, here are a few elements of timeless design.<br />
<ul>
<li><b>Neutrals</b> – a neutral background is a key feature of timeless interior design.</li>
<li><b>Clean lines</b> – highlight the lines and shapes of your house’s architectural details.</li>
<li><b>Colors</b> – feature colors like navy blue, dark green, and black that will always be in style. Dark colors like these complement neutrals.</li>
<li><b>Antique furniture</b> – decorate with antiques that contribute to the timelessness of a space’s décor. Whether a piece that’s been in your family for years or a <a href="https://www.baers.com/browse?51564=1982007812">traditional</a> piece, furniture that's stood the test of time makes for the right atmosphere.</li>
<li><b>Patterns</b> – use time-tested patterns such as stripes, checks, and plaids.</li>
<li><b>Natural materials</b> – stay away from plastic and synthetics.</li>
<li><b>Proportions</b> – select furniture in proportion to the space.</li></ul>
The end result should be a room that exudes subtlety, simplicity, and elegance.
<h2>Achieving a Timeless Look in Your Home</h2>
If you're ready to get a look for your home that will stand the test of time, follow these guidelines to get the perfect look.<br />
<h3>1) Symmetry</h3>
When you keep in mind symmetry and balance, your interior design will always be pleasing to the human eye. <br /><br />
There are 2 ways to achieve symmetry in your design:<br />
<h4>A) Divide Space in Half</h4>
The easiest way to achieve symmetry is to divide the space in half and use pairs of the same or similar objects to create matching halves of the room.<br />
<h4>B) Use a Focal Point</h4>
The other option is to choose certain focal points and create symmetry around them. You can use a <a href="https://www.baers.com/browse/sofas-and-loveseats/635">sofa</a> or mantle – be creative, as long as you create a mirror image (matching sofas) or two balanced, complementary halves (mantle as a focal point).<br /><br />
A symmetrical room offers a sense of balance that is pleasing and soothing to the human eye.</div><div><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkC3DBS9FgjqxypxYV2sOJwwGBQhcYm0Vs6DFDYblOzi57Kpq-5ea0FWlT2YQlmv9cuLMVehyphenhyphenbGJ4Qpl34qKHfO8ABGEHaoXSkM-KkqHrqwchJbJuGAQufel38mLj0ROPctFb517LGD5E/s1034/timeless-interior-design-4+%25281%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1034" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkC3DBS9FgjqxypxYV2sOJwwGBQhcYm0Vs6DFDYblOzi57Kpq-5ea0FWlT2YQlmv9cuLMVehyphenhyphenbGJ4Qpl34qKHfO8ABGEHaoXSkM-KkqHrqwchJbJuGAQufel38mLj0ROPctFb517LGD5E/w279-h400/timeless-interior-design-4+%25281%2529.jpg" width="279" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Image: https://decoholic.org/</td></tr></tbody></table><div><h3>2) Use of Classic Patterns</h3>
Classic patterns are the hallmark of timeless interiors – plaids, stripes, florals, and damasks. This means giving up animal prints, chevrons, and cluttered geometric prints. If you love these patterns, use them mindfully, and be aware that these patterns don’t always weather the test of time very well. <br /><br />
Another guideline for using patterns is to limit the number of patterns in a room to three in three different sizes. For instance, consider mixing a large striped sofa with checked curtains and a floral rug. You can play with the sizes however you like as long as you have three scales.<br />
<h3>3) Quality over Quantity</h3>
It is important to keep in mind that quality materials are timeless. This means that instead of cluttering up a space with multiple pieces that confuse the eye, you use a few quality, eye-catching pieces. <br /><br />
Choose good quality furniture, <a href="https://www.baers.com/p/custom-furniture-upholstery">upholstery</a>, and accessories. With high-quality pieces, you get outstanding durability and a beautiful look that lasts.<br />
<h3>4) Creating a Focal Point</h3>
Focal points add an aesthetic dimension and elevate the look of any space. They are accents in a room that draw the eye in a pleasing way. Some rooms have natural focal points, such as a fireplace, French doors, or a large picture window with a gorgeous view. If the room doesn’t have a natural focal piece, you can create one by painting a statement wall or adding artwork.<br />
<h3>5) Tone Down on the Tech</h3>
It seems like we can’t live without our devices, so if you can't give up your TV, at least hide it or tone it down. It helps that TVs and speakers aren’t as big and bulky as they used to be. Tech has gotten smaller and more inconspicuous, so even if you are the most avid TV viewer, it is easier to create décor in a way that doesn’t put the TV front and center in the space.<div><br /></div><div>When putting your spaces together, keep in mind that all trends have an expiration date, so avoid incorporating them in a major way. Instead, be mindful with color, customize your style, and be practical. Whether your style is classic, eclectic, or somewhere in between, you can create a timeless design as long as you keep the basic guidelines in mind.<div><p></p><div>Read <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BaersMelbourne/reviews/">Baer's Furniture reviews</a>.

Tips on Setting Up an Ergonomic Home Office<div>Most of us don’t think about ergonomics (ergo-what?) until we start to feel the pain of a workspace set up on the fly or occasionally working from home. But if your work from home situation is long-term, you may start feeling unexpected aches and pains if your workspace isn’t set up right. That’s where ergonomics comes in.</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNI2d2mmm92lE_QG6639cIZ95sOfxg6hyoTJlj1ybDwaxzDZHknl0WbseVcvXnwxw5Y130Ox7ASJ1glTIpOk5p4vQs15_T7iWmHY2ywnWtg_hsElvgkdn4PyqGWIRarnbUtuGkwLD9y0I/s1200/tech-neck.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="628" data-original-width="1200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNI2d2mmm92lE_QG6639cIZ95sOfxg6hyoTJlj1ybDwaxzDZHknl0WbseVcvXnwxw5Y130Ox7ASJ1glTIpOk5p4vQs15_T7iWmHY2ywnWtg_hsElvgkdn4PyqGWIRarnbUtuGkwLD9y0I/s320/tech-neck.png" width="320" /></a></div></div><div><br /><br />
The word sounds kind of fancy, but what it means is workspaces that fit the person who is using them. There is science behind it, but for our purposes, we need to know how to make our work from home spaces more comfortable, whether they are used every once in a while or on a regular basis. Choosing the right home <a href="https://www.baers.com/office.aspx">office furniture</a> can save you a world of pain and help you stay focused and productive.<br /><br />

Working at a real desk makes a big difference, as many who have worked at their dining room table can attest. You may not realize it right away, but working at the dining room table can cause posture problems that result in aching backs, necks, and even wrists.<br /><br />
Your desk should comfortably fit your feet, knees underneath it. You don’t want to bang your knees every time you pull your chair in or squeeze them together to fit them under it. Also, consider the height of your desk, when you are seated, your mouse and keyboard should be at elbow height.<br /><br />
The best way to tell if a desk is at the right height, sit at it, pull your feet under it, and hold your arms comfortably and naturally at your sides. Bend your elbow slightly in front of your body while they are still at your sides. This is the proper height for your work surface.<br /><br />
A good example is this desk with splayed legs and a drop-front drawer that puts the mouse and keyboard at the right height. The ergonomic palm rest keeps your wrists comfortable.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9G2gMyui4SW_876ZGhYXQ1MSiN6z3zBFn2y4hREP258AOp4QL5SD9uCtWB45J5sub8dqo0oSPe9NLfjrHSAeQRGkacRFeHhweh0bDgNeBnbl2p-3-h1p2jZrw9ZHhJms1B7Z1FWkFut8/s599/sligh-longboat-key-chair+%25282%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="599" data-original-width="593" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9G2gMyui4SW_876ZGhYXQ1MSiN6z3zBFn2y4hREP258AOp4QL5SD9uCtWB45J5sub8dqo0oSPe9NLfjrHSAeQRGkacRFeHhweh0bDgNeBnbl2p-3-h1p2jZrw9ZHhJms1B7Z1FWkFut8/s320/sligh-longboat-key-chair+%25282%2529.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div><h2>Choose a Comfortable Chair</h2>
This sounds obvious but isn’t as easy as it sounds. You may have to try out many desk chairs before you find the right one. This piece of home office furniture plays a key role in enduring your comfort when working at your desk for eight hours a day. A chair without the right support can cause backaches and neck aches that linger for days.
<br /><br />
Look for a chair that supports your spine, but remember to sit up straight with your feet on the floor. You’ll know that your chair is the right height when your thighs are parallel to the floor, and your knees are at hip height or close to it. If you need a little extra support for your lower back, add a small pillow.<br /><h2>Set Up Your Computer</h2>
And lastly, once you have all your home office furniture set up in your space, set up your monitor, computer or laptop, and mouse correctly. Make sure your monitor is at or just below eye level so that you can hold your neck straight and avoid “tech neck” and the aches that come with it. Try to avoid having direct light shining on your monitor. Instead, keep it to the side for indirect lighting that is less harsh.<br /></div></div><div><br /></div><div>Learn more about <a href="https://baers.medium.com/">Baer's Furniture</a>.

<h2>The Colors of Florida Décor</h2>
Just as the sound of the waves can create a relaxing atmosphere, so can adding Florida colors to your décor. Soft tropical colors such as seafoam green, cream, sky blue, living coral, sandy brown, and gentle gray are often used in Florida décor. Deeper blues and bright citrus colors can be added to create impact. Against these colors, accents of coral patterns and decorative glass are especially striking.

</p><h2>Benefits of Glass Top Dining Room Tables</h2>
Glass-topped dining tables come in many styles, from traditional to modern. Whatever their design, they can give your dining room a classy and sophisticated look.
Glass tables create an open yet formal feel in the space, inviting guests to stay awhile and turning family dinners into special occasions. Here are some benefits of glass-topped dining room tables.
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghu5jVYsZ_h0K0w2qFSKDyL3A3fIQib20FTXrEMhNi7EnBiM4LllSzh_Ig0i2DL3hmcN_8A3KOlvt2EwOY3S12VlACaGLph3UuyhdXpGkceC-VCk2VRLclmRgBtL10eOODuTYR0drkELQ/s2048/bernhardt-glass-top-table+%25281%2529.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px; text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghu5jVYsZ_h0K0w2qFSKDyL3A3fIQib20FTXrEMhNi7EnBiM4LllSzh_Ig0i2DL3hmcN_8A3KOlvt2EwOY3S12VlACaGLph3UuyhdXpGkceC-VCk2VRLclmRgBtL10eOODuTYR0drkELQ/s400/bernhardt-glass-top-table+%25281%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<h2>Adds More Than a Touch of Elegance</h2>
A glass top table with a metal base can make your dining room look chic and elegant. For instance, the <a href="https://www.baers.com/item/interiors-gustav-dining-table/972340216">Gustav Round Glass Top Dining Table with Polished Metal Base</a> from Bernhardt Interiors creates a sleek, modern feel that can easily shift from formal to casual. The round glass tabletop sitting above the bold polished steel pedestal base gives the space a glamorous feel.
<h2>Brings Light into the Space</h2>
The transparent quality of the glass distributes light throughout a room, giving the space a fresh and airy feel. But more than that, a glass top gives visual lightness to your dining room, making it look larger and wider. Your home will feel more spacious and modern. This makes glass-topped dining tables a great option for breakfast nooks or small dining rooms.
<h2>Highlights the Beauty of Wood Furniture</h2>
Wood and glass complement each other. Glass brings out the beauty of the wood while wood enhances the qualities of glass. This combination creates magnetism and attraction, making a harmonious whole when used together in a dining room table.
<h2>Glass Topped Tables with Pedestal Bases</h2>
The reimagined glass top dining table is gorgeous with a streamlined pedestal base, or double pedestal base, depending on the size of the table.
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBoyZoyCNOu4-ZKv7CJELxmMHrddymu0iuRXaOTqg5bXld16PAos6do5ETvq0a1SxUrLGx736a0YabaEFgtD5Qb8GepWNzIK6jObjCV3C99fQEBXDs2H_iwpnayfynWG82_cbM_y8DohM/s2048/tommy-bahama-home-ocean-club-glass-table+%25281%2529.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px; text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBoyZoyCNOu4-ZKv7CJELxmMHrddymu0iuRXaOTqg5bXld16PAos6do5ETvq0a1SxUrLGx736a0YabaEFgtD5Qb8GepWNzIK6jObjCV3C99fQEBXDs2H_iwpnayfynWG82_cbM_y8DohM/s400/tommy-bahama-home-ocean-club-glass-table+%25281%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<h3>Single Pedestal Table Base</h3>
This type of base can be simple or complex but is always one central base that looks like a column upon which the glass top is balanced.
The creativity and types of pedestal bases continue to grow, as seen in this stunning <a href="https://www.baers.com/item/ocean-club-south-sea-round-glass-table-w-54in-top/1597194013">Ocean Club 54 Inch South Sea Round Glass Table</a> from Tommy Bahama Home. The eye-popping, geometric, distressed base takes this table to the next level. Because the tabletop is round, you can dress it up for a formal dining space or dress it down for a casual dining nook.
<h3>Double Pedestal Table Base</h3>
The name says it all, this type of table has two pedestal bases supporting its weight. This type of table is larger and often used in high-traffic areas such as the kitchen where you may need extra durability but still want a full measure of style.

Choosing the right headboard can make all the difference to the look and feel of your bedroom. There are many headboard options, made in many different materials, so knowing what to look for and what you want will help you find the one that suits your life and enhances your style. <br /><br />
These four tips can help you choose the right headboard for your space. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkS9VHpgOOoEAJHY2wNl-YxAPNoy3md5DI1FbdbyBLIUh-xEjVfPEw2wvjs4GdMsS2kPwntvzsrCsLzL5lQhADxCrIRLh0jRLB3gSuQJvXq5x-B_Ln8R28JXKuC22dgjLJ-gRpG6JKvi8/s2048/vanguard-furniture-color-michael-weiss-turfted-headboard+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkS9VHpgOOoEAJHY2wNl-YxAPNoy3md5DI1FbdbyBLIUh-xEjVfPEw2wvjs4GdMsS2kPwntvzsrCsLzL5lQhADxCrIRLh0jRLB3gSuQJvXq5x-B_Ln8R28JXKuC22dgjLJ-gRpG6JKvi8/s320/vanguard-furniture-color-michael-weiss-turfted-headboard+%25281%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p><br />
</p><h2>1. Focus on Your Headboard Style</h2>
The right headboard will add an element of interest and fashion to your bedroom. The most important thing to remember is that your headboard should reflect who you are. Material and texture will make a difference.<br /><br />
A classic, elegant example is a tufted headboard such as the <a href="https://www.baers.com/item/bowers-michael-weiss-queen-tufted-headboard-bed/1684128050">Michael Weiss Tufted Headboard Bed by Vanguard Furniture Bowers</a>. <br /><br />
Embellishments such as lace, metallic, or, in this case, deep button tufting, add to the overall interest of your headboard. The deep button tufting on this headboard makes this bed a polished centerpiece in the space. The winged shape and chic edging keep the look timeless. <br /><br />
<h2>2. Headboards Come in a Variety of Materials</h2>
When you start shopping for a headboard, you’ll soon notice that they are available in a multitude of materials, from wood to metal to fabric. <br /><br />
Wooden headboards can be either traditional or contemporary, and come in many types of wood, such as mahogany, teak, pine, and walnut. Different stains and shapes create a wide variety of options.<br /><br />
Metal headboards can be simple and clean, or elaborate patterns that evoke a different era. Whether modern or traditional, these headboards may come in wrought iron, steel, or an alloy, and some feature coatings so you can customize the color to your heart's content.<br /><br />
Upholstered headboards come in an array of fabrics, from satin to leather. With upholstery, you can get creative with color and detailing, such as buttons, patterns, and trims. <div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFIPPS1_UrNj7a5QHXJn2TY-nIc521G4NgsSezmKQW6pQatOXg2Qcngme9ollclr4TO0Mjq72W_ErVj6xEqgLRIQ7gXIFyT-j0TP3pc_zP8mdw5oa-vZlRkQQr4N4WVXFSiMHSa1l-5r4/s2048/aspenhome-color-oxford-wooden-headboard+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFIPPS1_UrNj7a5QHXJn2TY-nIc521G4NgsSezmKQW6pQatOXg2Qcngme9ollclr4TO0Mjq72W_ErVj6xEqgLRIQ7gXIFyT-j0TP3pc_zP8mdw5oa-vZlRkQQr4N4WVXFSiMHSa1l-5r4/s320/aspenhome-color-oxford-wooden-headboard+%25281%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div><br /><h2>3. Headboard Size Matters </h2>
Of course, your headboard needs to fit the size of your bed, but you also need to take into consideration the size and proportions of your bedroom. Most headboards are offered in king or queen size, such as the <a href="https://www.baers.com/item/oxford-queen-sleigh-bed/860277379">Oxford Transitional Queen Sleigh Bed with USB Ports by Aspenhome</a>. <br /><br />
If you have a smaller space, you may want to opt for a more compact headboard, and likewise may wish to forego a full-frame bed in favor of a headboard accompanied with a simple metal bed frame.<br /><br />
In a larger space, if you want to make a statement, oversized headboards are on-trend as we move into 2021. Some options extend your headboard to ceiling-height, while others can span the width of an entire wall, adding texture and dimension to your bed. <div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Baau94CtkEYiKCMq5RBiakxPZLLBY9goCzkk2DPr6kF85bW1rgM24TIeN3OnMyMagitX3ybdBPPnnGdb2yv_-vwFUdLKsY_QwBLCOwEPYrXSkkYTat-3K7gOSgk7Njcp_34pCeg9Fbw/s878/tommy_bahama_home_color_island+fusion.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="878" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8Baau94CtkEYiKCMq5RBiakxPZLLBY9goCzkk2DPr6kF85bW1rgM24TIeN3OnMyMagitX3ybdBPPnnGdb2yv_-vwFUdLKsY_QwBLCOwEPYrXSkkYTat-3K7gOSgk7Njcp_34pCeg9Fbw/s320/tommy_bahama_home_color_island+fusion.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><h2>4. Headboard Style and Color</h2>
Whether you buy your headboard first and design your space around it, or it is the finishing touch on your design, you need to keep the overall look you want to create at the forefront of your mind. If you’ve got a feminine design, you’ll want to enhance this theme with your headboard. A tufted headboard or embellished headboard will match your bedroom’s aesthetic. If your style is minimalist, go with something simpler with clean lines.<br /><br />
Similarly, you’ll want your headboard to support your color palette. You can go two ways with this: <br /><br /><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>
Complement your palette: choose a neutral shade that goes with your palette to give your bedroom a light and airy feel. Calm, soothing colors work well in bedrooms, creating a relaxing atmosphere for sleep.</li><li>
Contrast with your palette: choose a darker headboard that will stand out when used with a lighter palette, or vice versa.</li></ol><br />
The juxtaposition of the dark wood in the <a href="https://www.baers.com/item/island-fusion-6-6-shanghai-bed-headboard/1292384547">Island Fusion King-Sized Shanghai Bed Headboard</a> from Tommy Bahama Home against the lighter wall behind creates a stunning look in this bedroom. The natural materials and neutral palette keep it calm and soothing, while the fretwork on the headboard creates depth. The Pan-Asian design brings harmony and balance to the otherwise contemporary space.<br /><br />
Keep these tips in mind when it's time to shop for your headboard. Choosing the right headboard doesn’t have to be a chore. Armed with knowledge, you’ll find the one that suits your space and style.</div></div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Read <a href="https://porch.com/stuart-fl/custom-furniture-builders/baers-furniture-154338969/pp">Baer's Furniture Reviews</a>.

It’s the little touches that make a difference, as you can see in this warm living room. Rich <a href="https://www.baers.com/browse/leather-furniture/681">brown leather furniture</a> and creamy white walls work well in any season. All the room needs are subtle touches.<div><br /></div><div>Creating a centerpiece filled with red apples, dried flowers, and some greenery, will make the room feel extra special for the winter holidays and beyond. Another idea is to add some scented pinecones and up the ante with the comforting aroma of cinnamon and vanilla. These touches create an atmosphere that easily moves in and out of the holiday season.</div><div><br /><h2>Add Winter Pillows and Throws</h2>
Comfort and warmth are a major part of winter feels. Liven up your space by adding crisp white or jewel-toned fabrics. <div><br /></div><div>In the kitchen and bathroom, you can update your dishtowels, hand towels, and even washcloths in ruby red, hunter green, or sapphire blue to make the holidays bright. In your living room and throughout gathering spaces, add pillows and throws in these colors to create a nice touch for the season. The bedrooms can also get this treatment, whether it be your windows or your bed.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyUtdRmdyxIq5HJUYcx2WI_vfB95hvvoXArHhz4IY3o_j6jOkZ-lM3t74u9_ryDID0PHod2A9S9D5RLt2FjoQs9HEV_rCzuDyijyxpUh6TKCv312D-ynR7gdnIF0Mr1ALgOwaEey3KG88/s2048/pexels-jessica-lewis-1652402+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1362" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyUtdRmdyxIq5HJUYcx2WI_vfB95hvvoXArHhz4IY3o_j6jOkZ-lM3t74u9_ryDID0PHod2A9S9D5RLt2FjoQs9HEV_rCzuDyijyxpUh6TKCv312D-ynR7gdnIF0Mr1ALgOwaEey3KG88/s320/pexels-jessica-lewis-1652402+%25281%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div><br /><h2>Adorn Your Door for the Winter</h2>
Get your guests into the spirit of the season by hanging a festive floral arrangement or wreath on your front door. Look for rustic ones with twine, greenery, dried oranges, and cinnamon, or fancier ones with brightly-colored flowers. When it comes to door displays, the options are endless. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOEJbMu3IN8jOegC_3mY1AbzlD1UdNEKutOOkJH2jodZCcd0gZSS8qlWbFc1WoQb6gL57HxGpNFCPOACblISbZnRRMUa04Iw1rZp0wnus4Thzsq66el8k8ti_jcY-yl8H3u-2NDclYSnk/s1439/hooker-furniture-winter+%25281%2529.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1439" data-original-width="1061" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOEJbMu3IN8jOegC_3mY1AbzlD1UdNEKutOOkJH2jodZCcd0gZSS8qlWbFc1WoQb6gL57HxGpNFCPOACblISbZnRRMUa04Iw1rZp0wnus4Thzsq66el8k8ti_jcY-yl8H3u-2NDclYSnk/s320/hooker-furniture-winter+%25281%2529.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div><br /><h2>Add Winter-White Flowers in a Pretty Vase</h2>
If you don’t want to go all out, that’s okay. Do it subtly by adding a pretty vase of winter-white blooms to the <a href="https://www.baers.com/browse/dining-room-groups/489">dining room table</a>. It will freshen up the space and bring a little reminder of the season into your dining room. It’s easy to spice it up a little for special occasions, or just let the flowers speak for themselves.<h2>Scent Your Home with Winter Flavors</h2>
Fill the air in your home with scents of the season. This can easily be achieved with candles in cinnamon, vanilla, and pine scents. </div><div><br /><div>If you're feeling DIY, you can make your own scent mix with a simmer pot on the stove. Just add your favorite fall spices, such as cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger. Add some sliced oranges or cranberries, and even a dash of vanilla. Experiment until you get the scent you want. These scents will add a special touch to the wonderful winter colors that fill your home.</div><div><br /></div><div>Read <a href="https://www.baersfurnishing.com/search/label/baers%20furniture%20reviews">Baer's Furniture reviews</a>.

No matter what your living room style, at some point, you may feel like you are stuck in a rut with the same style you’ve had for the last decade or so. Or even just season, depending on your need for change.</p><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;">You’ve probably spent a great deal of time, effort, and thought to achieve the look you want, one that reflects your aesthetic and your personal style, so you may hesitate to give that up. Luckily, you don’t have to. If you still like your aesthetic and feel it reflects who you are, but may need a little refreshing, you’ve come to the right place. You can easily freshen up your design without tossing everything out and starting over.</p><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;">Begin by looking at your living room with fresh eyes. It’s not about getting rid of those things you’ve lovingly chosen for your home, it’s about looking at them in a new way and tweaking your design to give your space a refresh. So, you may not have to get rid of your grandfather’s secretary if you don’t want to, you may just end up placing it in a different room where it has more use and freeing up the space in your living room for something else.</p><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;">Here are some living room style ideas to refresh your home and update your design.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF2ogzYsS0T2ENVeL1JNVMC5P-BEbDfw93FgS05qv29sTHFKf8BmX1vhlC3wSYifYxSI0Nhz3Rq7_jbulhWKGmOjyOIyxKx4zNnbZT7h1KDPH3aeBgo9r2m8HTa1qFULRdhyphenhyphen1wFoG9Iw/s2048/customized-chair-with-nailhead-trim.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" height="230" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF2ogzYsS0T2ENVeL1JNVMC5P-BEbDfw93FgS05qv29sTHFKf8BmX1vhlC3wSYifYxSI0Nhz3Rq7_jbulhWKGmOjyOIyxKx4zNnbZT7h1KDPH3aeBgo9r2m8HTa1qFULRdhyphenhyphen1wFoG9Iw/w410-h230/customized-chair-with-nailhead-trim.jpg" width="410" /></a></div><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;"><span style="font-size: 2rem;">Rearrange Your Furniture</span></p><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;">A great way to refresh your living room is to rearrange your furniture, and maybe add a new piece or two. Begin by clearing the space to see what you have to work with. Make a list of what you have and what you think you’ll need. Sketch out a few ideas, or use a free design app, that way you won’t have to move the furniture too many times. Your helpers will thank you for that.</p><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;">Then add pieces back mindfully to create the look you are going for. This will also help you see where you have room for something new. The <a data-gc-link="https://www.baers.com/item/upholstery-barrier-chair/1515723964" href="https://www.baers.com/item/upholstery-barrier-chair/1515723964" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit; color: #006eff; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Lexington Upholstery Barrier Swivel Chair with Nailhead Trim</a> is a great choice.

It’s easy, and you don’t have to move furniture around if that’s not your thing. Adding some bright, tropical pillows gives your room a pop of color, or you may prefer some lighter, woven pillows for a more hygge design. If you’re going for a more modern look, try a geometric print in black and white.</p><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;">Playing with throw pillows is also a safe way to test adding new colors to your palette. If you like the way one of these colors goes in your space, you can consider adding a chair or area rug that pulls in more color.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQGN7p4PSgLb0wlEBY0B0MLQgqPfMy7zhHmzSGY__YIhEKIA3MCo2l_hszpbvXDlgsxR-yvqVlI2zxP6FCv9D_z9PGYzhtfZRJr2-9Ls8uzNwkEaXvjXtVegYFFFmLoMO0rvmepQFEyQ/s2048/sectional-sofa-with-statement-art.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1152" data-original-width="2048" height="288" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQGN7p4PSgLb0wlEBY0B0MLQgqPfMy7zhHmzSGY__YIhEKIA3MCo2l_hszpbvXDlgsxR-yvqVlI2zxP6FCv9D_z9PGYzhtfZRJr2-9Ls8uzNwkEaXvjXtVegYFFFmLoMO0rvmepQFEyQ/w512-h288/sectional-sofa-with-statement-art.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;"><span style="font-size: 2rem;">Add a Piece of Statement Art</span></p><p style="background-color: #fdfdfd; box-sizing: inherit; color: #29333d; font-family: "IBM Plex Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.688rem; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 10px;">If the same statement artwork has hovered over your sofa for more than a decade, it may be time to switch it out for something new.

It’s great to hear guests marveling at how well coordinated your home décor is, and even better when you relax, in comfort, for a little family time.<br />
<br />
When looking to beautify your home, remember to choose things that make you happy. Chances are you’ll find that all the things that make you happy go well together in your space. Keep an eye on maintaining a sense of harmony and balance in the space. And remember to add a bit of color here and there to liven up a neutral space. With that in mind, here are some interior décor tips to level up your space.<br />

<h2>
1. Add Some Eye-Catching Shimmer and Shine</h2>
Nothing catches the eye like a little shimmer and shine, so it’s a good thing this is considered a great idea for interior design. Adding crystal accessories and furniture with metallic accents is a great way to do this without going overboard.<br />
<br />
With a perfect balance of shine and sophistication, <a href="https://www.baers.com/item/la-scala-7-piece-dining-set/917963074">A.R.T. Furniture Inc La Scala 7 Piece Dining Set </a>gives your dining room a unique glam yet contemporary feel. The flared legs lead the eye up to the warm pearlescent tabletop with its wraparound metallic trim.<br />
<h2>
2. Arrange Attractive Seating in Unexpected Places</h2>
Placing pretty chairs just inside the front door makes your home both practical and polished. A few chars and a console table give an unmistakable air of comfort and invitation to your home. You can choose a pair of chairs and a console table, or a small bench. Whichever you choose, this practical and cozy arrangement will make an excellent first impression on your guests.<br />

3. Put a Console in the Foyer</h2>

Read Baer's Furniture reviews about service and quality, and how they handle things when they don't go right the first time.<br />
"… Baer's not only promises but delivers. The salesman was easy to deal with. … Where they really shone was after sales service. They went to bat for us on a chair that was out of warranty. They got the Manufacturer to replace it with a new product. Would not hesitate to go back …"<br />

<h2>
You Know a Furniture Store by How It Handles Mistakes</h2>
As much as you try to be the best 100% of the time, sometimes things go wrong. No one likes it when this happens, but how a business reacts when something goes awry says a lot about them. Here are some examples of how Baer's Furniture has handled mistakes and missteps and tried to make it right.<br />
"… Sales staff and the delivery folks are the best … But the company they have used for repairs … more than frustrating to deal with. … they would get 5 stars except for a one-star on furniture service calls. Eventually had to get to top management, and they fixed it."<br />
<strong>Response from Baer's Furniture</strong><br />
"Mr. Taylor, We apologize for the delays while our in-house technician was on medical leave, but we are back to full staff now. Jennifer Coachman, our customer relations manager, will be reaching out to you shortly to see how we can improve. Thank you, Baer's Furniture."<br />

"I purchased extended warranty on an $1800 recliner … seat cushion collapsed … the warranty service I purchased inspect the chair … admitted the seat had lost structure … received the report and they will do nothing … Even though I loved Baer's, I'll never return … Such a hassle trying to get something fixed."<br />
<strong>Response from Baer's Furniture</strong><br />
"… adding to this negative review … Had a call from a customer service associate this morning. What a pleasant surprise. They are sending a service tech out next week to assist me. As I told the customer service rep, she has restored my confidence that companies do care about their clients. Thank you, Sue."<br />
