Measure Measure Measure!
Measuring each room is the first and most important step in furnishing your new home. Knowing your measurements will help you to choose furniture that will fit effortlessly into each room.

For a large and open living room space consider a sectional that can accommodate your room size and seating. For your dining room choose a dining table that can fit your space and seating needs. Take time to measure your bedroom and decide whether the best fit is a queen or king-size bed. Consider if you can add a dresser, mirror, and nightstands to your bedroom space!
