Livin’ Large (On a Budget): Spice Up Your Home with New Furniture

Blame the heat waves and the comfort of central A/C and your worn-in couch, but lately you’ve been watching one too many shows on HGTV. All the revamping and revealing has made you decide that your humble abode is due for a makeover. Lucky for you, July is statistically a good time to buy new furniture, because furniture store showrooms need to have space to display new fall models and designs. Start small on your makeover journey by purchasing one of these four delightfully deal-icious items:

Chair

Your living room is in need of a great chair that will appeal to the masses. Although Dad may argue that the chair is all for him, your daughter will sink into it after school to do homework, you’ll listen to music on a Sunday afternoon on it, your feet hanging over the edge, and even the dog will get in on the action, using it to curl up and take a nap. Whether you are looking for leather or upholstered, a recliner or massage chair, Cymax.com has something for you. Through July 31, Cymax.com is offering a coupon code for $15 off a $300 purchases, plus free shipping.

Kitchen Table

Now that the First Lady has emphasized the importance of healthy eating with her new “My Plate” strategy, and touted the benefits of family dinners, your current crowded dining table just doesn’t make the cut. Go beyond the traditional round table with matching chairs aesthetic and try a modern square table with mis-matched chairs on one side and a cushioned bench on the other. DiningTables.com  has individual tables, dining chairs, and sets for sale. Plus, score free shipping on any purchase until July 31st.

Lamps

Inspired by all of those design blogs you read during your lunch hour that show crisp, clean bedrooms with great bedside lighting, you’ve decided to add two statement lamps to each side table. Clear stacked bubble lamps are back in style and all the rage, but don’t forget about the classic combination of white lamp bases with cool, colored shades. LampsPlus.com has thousands of styles to choose from, but they also have a neat mix and match tool that will allow you to design your own custom lamp. Right now, with LampsPlus.com coupon codes you can save $10 off a $150 purchase, $20 off a $300 purchase or $40 off a $450 purchase.

Bookshelves

You’re an avid reader, but you’re running out of space to store all of your books. Sounds like it’s time for an upgrade. Solid wood bookshelves are wonderful and timeless, plus they’ll wear well over the years, but, if you’re looking for a more unique solution, you could get two metal baker’s racks and flank them on either side of your television, in place of traditional shelves. BookCasesGalore.com has everything from standard bookcases to barrister bookcases, plus a sweet free shipping on any purchase deal that ends on July 31st. If you take a design chance and order bakers racks, visit BakersRacksCollection.com for coupon code of 5% off of your purchase, plus free shipping.
