Buying Tips - Measuring your Home

Why it's important and how to measure your home for new furniture
Before buying furniture, it is important to measure the space it will go into. However, there is more to this than just measuring width, height, and depth. A common reason for furniture being returned to the retailer is that the furniture doesn't fit into the room the way the customer expected.

A quick and simple way to test for a furniture fit is to lay out pieces of string with the width and depth of your furniture on the floor. Then have a friend hold another piece of string the height of your furniture from one of the front corners while you stand back in the room and visualize the piece in your room with the string dimensions as a guide. If you are having difficulty visualizing the piece, you can tape cardboard boxes or panels together with the dimensions of your furniture for a more definitive model.

One problem that is not uncommon with large pieces of furniture is that customers will measure to make sure the furniture fits in the room, but do not measure if the furniture will fit through the home to the room it is going in. Common holdups are most often doorways and angled hallways. Please make sure your furniture will not only fit in your room, but also that we can get it there.

Many pieces of furniture are designed with a certain scale in mind. Some couches, for example, are designed to be placed away from the wall in a large room to allow reclining, while others are designed to fit against a corner or wall to maximize space in a smaller room. This is true for all types of furniture, from home entertainment and dining to office and bedroom. Make sure you are buying an item that is appropriately scaled to your room.

Decorating Guide
Furnishing your home can be a wonderful, exciting experience, but it can also be quite frustrating. To ease some of this, Oakwood Furniture has created a decorating guide. We hope this will be helpful.

Style Decisions
The first step in choosing your furniture and accessories is deciding on your style. Are you traditional, contemporary, country, eclectic, or transitional?

Traditional
Traditional categories include the English style Queen Anne and the French style Louie Philippe, with their rich tones such as cherry and mahogany and carved turned legs.

Country & Cottage
Country lines are simple or slightly adorned. Woods are usually oak or pine, and are finished in a light to medium stain. Some pieces are painted in one color or in a combination of colors. 

The cottage look is available in many colors and can have bead board backing.

Contemporary
Contemporary lines are smooth and straight. Wood tones range from natural to dark, as well as many painted finishes. Woods can be oak, maple, alder, and hickory. Frosted or tinted glass can be a nice accent in some of these pieces.

Eclectic
Eclectic is the most versatile of all, as you can mix and match styles, woods, and even incorporate family heirlooms into any room. It is truly your own style. Contrast is the most important element. Take modern or contemporary and add one or two pieces of Louis Philippe or country. Try not to make it an even match. Two thirds of one style and the balance different is usually a good rule of thumb.

Transitional
Transitional is an easy-to-live-with style, blending contemporary with the best of the past. This style works extremely well with open floor plans such as great rooms where you have living room and office or dining in one large area, creating continuity from one to the other.

Accessories
Once you have decided on your style, you can move forward with accessories and create your own beautiful living space.

A wide variety of accessories are available to complement any decor. Lamps, Pictures, boats, and antique cars are just a few.

Glass pieces in vibrant color can enhance the look of any room. Pillows and rugs can do the same.

Woods
We offer a variety of woods and finishes such as oak, cherry, pine, maple, hickory, and alder. Many of our manufacturers offer the same piece in many woods or finishes.

We also work with several companies that offer standard products that they can customize for you, including design, options, wood, and finishes. This will allow you to have a truly unique piece of furniture.
