Renew Your Living Room in Three Easy Steps

The Chinese idea of feng shui makes much of keeping items that only bring you joy, eliminating clutter. The thinking behind this is just as clutter makes it hard to walk around your living room, it also blocks positive energy, known as chi. So if your living room furniture seems worn or dated, it’s probably bringing down your spirits in ways you might not even consciously feel. Time for an upgrade. The pieces that no longer inspire you can go to charity so you can renew your living space and refresh your life.

Step One: Make a Plan

First, decide on a specific theme. What kind of vibe do you want to give? Casual and relaxing? Upscale and luxurious? Fun and family-friendly? Classic such as Victorian? Modern? Futuristic?

Tip: Plants make great table-toppers to liven things up.

Step Two: Set a Budget

Whether you want to spend for an entire living room set or a state-of-the-art sectional sofa, we’ve got your back. Setting a realistic budget is critical. While we do offer an incredible Lay-A-Way program (which allows qualified buyers up to 12 months to finalize the payments), it’s always best not to go too far beyond your means. Before browsing our vast selection of living room furniture, always set a realistic budget for your needs and we will be happy to make the best suggestions we can.

Tip: If your budget allows, add a flash area rug to keep things fresh.

Step Three: Narrow Down the Options

Most discount furniture stores in Philadelphia and South Jersey don’t have as many options to choose from as us. It’s always best to find a reputable dealer that has a huge catalog of couches so you can easily narrow down your top two or three favorite options. Once you have it narrowed down, our product specialists can work together with you and your family to make your selections meet everybody’s needs. We will even work with you if you buy multiple pieces of furniture at once to help make things as affordable as possible!

Tip: If you’ve got a small space, rather than trying to hide this, embrace the smallness by pulling your loveseat and recliner close together with your coffee table, like a TV talk-show set.

Now that the hard part (or not-so-hard part if you use us) is done, it’s time to sit back and relax. Throw on your favorite Netflix series. Have some buddies over for the game. Fire up the Xbox. Whatever your means of fun is, we make the sales process quick and painless, so you can go back to living in style and comfort.

Tip: If you do want the illusion of more space, bright white walls with your favorite artwork mounted in white frames will do the trick.

Like any big life change, refreshing your living room furniture is daunting at first. That’s why our team of experts is here. We’ve sold furniture to numerous people from all walks of life with a variety of themes and color schemes. We’ll even make recommendations based on photos you email us or bring to our store! That’s how Best Buy has become the premier discount furniture store in Philadelphia, PA.
