Sebring Lift Top Cocktail Table from The RoomPlace

The various tables in your living room don’t have to be boring—many occasional tables actually have a lot going on. They can be more than just a way to hold cocktails and coffee cups. Let’s look at four ways coffee tables are unexpectedly functional.

Sedona Storage Cocktail Table from The RoomPlace

  1. Drawers & Storage

Maximize your living area’s storage space with a living room coffee table that features drawers and storage compartments. Tables like the Ross give you space to store TV remotes, DVDs, coasters, books and other items. This extra storage space allows you to keep clutter off the surface of the table and easily access your items when you need them.

Le Mans Lift Top Cocktail Table from The RoomPlace

  1. Lift Tops

Some cocktail tables have an innovative hidden feature that makes them all the more convenient and functional—lift tops. Lift-top cocktail tables like the Arcadia are perfect for making mealtime easier or creating a raised surface for holding your laptop, books, hobby supplies and more. When not in use, these lift-top surfaces can be easily lowered for a streamlined look. We also love the Ellis, which features a brilliant black base and a striking, faux-marble top in gray for a super sleek and modern look.

Lexenburg Console Table from The RoomPlace

  1. Shelves

Shelves are another feature that add storage space to your cocktail tables, and they’re also a great way to display home accents that express your style. Options like the Lexenburg Console Table or Sebring Lift-Top Cocktail Table feature shelves that give plenty of space to store and showcase your belongings and décor.

Vinton Charcoal Nesting Tables from The RoomPlace

  1. Nesting Tables

Perfect for smaller living rooms, nesting tables have the convenience of multiple tables without taking up too much floor space. Simply slide out a smaller table from underneath when you need it, and put it back when you’re done. The Vinton Charcoal or Wayhill nesting tables are two excellent choices for your family room.

With these ideas for functional living room coffee tables, you’re sure to find a table that works for your space and sense of style. At The RoomPlace, we carry a wide variety of multi-functional coffee tables, cocktail tables and accent tables that are stylish and affordable. Shop our entire occasional table section online at http://www.theroomplace.com or visit us at one of our store locations to find the piece that’s perfect for you.

When shopping for a new living room sofa, sectional, armchair or other upholstered furniture, it’s important to consider not just how they look but also how they’ll hold up to the wear and tear and everyday life. Factors like durability, stain-resistance and ease of maintenance will help you decide what type of fabric is best for your furniture. Let’s take a look at the benefits and downsides of a few common options.

Image: Florence Charcoal 3 Pc. Leather Sectional From The RoomPlace

Leather

Leather is one of the best options for people with young kids or pets. Durable and classic, it’s easy to clean with a vacuum or damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, you’ll want to use a leather conditioner or saddle soap to ensure your leather sofa or leather sectional set looks good for years to come. Check out our past blog post on the topic for more information on whether leather is right for you.

Image: Denali Smoke 3 Pc. Polyester & Microfiber Sectional w/Chaise From The RoomPlace
Image: Denali Smoke 3 Pc. Polyester & Microfiber Sectional w/Chaise From The RoomPlace

Faux-Leather

You can get the look of leather minus the hide maintenance with a faux-leather fabric. While not as durable as genuine leather, faux leather can withstand scratches and scrapes better and is not prone to cracking or peeling. It’s also a much more affordable option if you’re working with a tight budget.

Microfiber/Polyester

Another durable and popular choice, microfiber upholstery is easy to keep clean and stands up well to everyday wear. Microfiber is made of polyester, and there are other polyester-based upholstery options as well, including polyester canvas, some faux leathers, tweed and twill. Some polyester blends include natural fibers like cotton, which can be more prone to staining, so it’s important to check the sofa label for its exact composition. Microfiber furniture can also generate static and attract pet hair or clothing lint, which is a downside of the fabric.

Other Synthetic Fibers

Polyester is not the only synthetic fiber used for upholstery fabrics. Other made-made fabrics like olefin, rayon and nylon are often blended with other fibers to improve durability and stain-resistance. In general, synthetic materials are stronger and more practical than their natural fiber counterparts.

Cotton

Cotton upholstery provides good resistance to wear and fading, but not much resistance to wrinkling and staining. In general, 100% cotton sofas can be a great choice aesthetically, but may not be right for active families with children or pets. Cotton canvas and certain cotton blends are more durable choices than softer cotton weaves like chenille.

Linen & Silk

While linen and silk are quite different fabrics, their downsides as upholstery options are similar. Both are best suited for formal, adult-only living areas that are free of kids and pets, since they won’t withstand heavy wear. Silk and linen furniture must also be professional cleaned if soiled, which is another reason why it’s not a good option for busy, high-traffic rooms.

3 Tips for Choosing a Sofa Fabric for Your Home

Now that you’re familiar with the pros and cons of some of the most popular sofa and couch fabrics, here are some additional tips for how to choose the material that’s best for your needs.

  1. Always consider how much use your sofa will get, as well as who will be using it. Toddlers, dogs and cats can be particularly rough on upholstery, so for family rooms and other busy areas, it’s best to choose a durable material like leather or microfiber.
  2. Fabrics with higher thread counts (number of threads per square inch) are denser and therefore more durable. To get the best possible strength and quality out of a fabric like cotton, opt for one that features a high thread count.
  3. To ensure your new sofa or sectional has a long life, we recommend applying a water-repelling upholstery protectant like Scotchgard. This will help create a barrier to reduce the chance that spills will stain your furniture.

While finding the right upholstery fabric for your sofa takes a little bit of time and effort, we make it easy for you at The RoomPlace! You can browse all our sofas, sectionals and loveseats by material when you shop online. And when you visit one of our showrooms in Chicago or Indianapolis, we’ll help you choose the fabric that makes the most sense for your home and lifestyle.

3 Trendy Ways to Style Sectional Couch Pillows

Sectional sofas are meant for lounging, whether you’re watching TV, reading or just hanging out. But just because a couch is warm and comfy doesn’t mean it can’t be stylish. Putting throw pillows on a sectional is an easy and inexpensive way to also add depth, texture and unique style. Throw pillow can also help tie other design elements into the room or offer a much-needed contrast or pop of personality. With so many options to choose from, finding the right throw pillows—and figuring out how to style them—can be a bit tricky. Here are three exciting, innovative and original ways to make the throw pillows on your sofa look amazing.

1. Mix a bold pattern cushion with a more subtle cushion.

malibu-5-piece-sectional-cuddler-reverse

When paired with a solid accent-colored pillow, patterned throw pillows can add symmetry and provide a cool contrast. The subtle textured fabric of the Mesa gray sectional pairs perfectly with geometric, colorful abstract throw pillows such as the Vargo gray multi.

  1. Add a little shimmer with metallic pillows in gold or silver.

newcastle-platinum-2pc-sect_v1

Metallics are a hot trend this year and metallic pillows in gray, gold or silver add warmth, comfort and style to a contemporary sectional sofa. These throw pillows incorporate the sofa color while also offering some much-needed contrast and texture.

3. Don’t be afraid to add a little color to a neutral sofa.

monroe-new-white-2pc.jpg

A white sectional sofa practically cries out for a pop of color, and red throw pillows do just the trick. Matching your throw pillow to the color of an accent wall in the room or to a red hue from a piece of art hung above the sofa will also work well.

When styling sectional sofas, there are several ways to get the look right. Repeating the mix of cushions in each of the three corners creates a harmonious look while still offering plenty of comfort. You can also try a mixing up patterns in the same color scheme, or just going with the colors, patterns and styles you like. Sometimes the most random assortment of pillows looks the best.

At The RoomPlace, we help our customers get it all: sectional sofas in a range of styles, colors, and sizes, including leather sectionals and small sectional sofas, all at an affordable price. Shop our entire selection online at www.theroomplace.com or visit us at an of our store locations for sectional styling inspiration.

A Guide to Matching Floor Lamps in Your Living Room

Floor lamps

The right lighting can make your home feel like a warm and inviting place to be, while the wrong lighting can easily make you feel like you are living in a hospital room. Placement, style and even the type of bulb you choose are all key factors in finding the right lighting to transform your home into a relaxing oasis. It’s also important to make sure you have matching floor lamps that blend in seamlessly with your room’s style. Here are some expert tips to help you master the art of lighting and floor lamp style.

Placement

The proper placement of light fixtures is important for creating a functional space for your needs. For example, floor lamps tucked into dark corners or along each side of your sofa can completely change the feel of a room. If you have a fireplace as the focal point of the room, consider getting matching floor lamps for each side.

Style

Your floor lamps should complement your existing décor. If your furniture is very traditional and you choose contemporary floor lamps, your living room may feel off-kilter or appear imbalanced. We recommend staying within your chosen color scheme, but if you find a lamp you love, remember that the floor lamp shade can usually be changed to work with your existing palette. Arc floor lamps are a classic look that have been redesigned for just about every taste and style.

Size

Scale is also important when it comes to matching floor lamps in your living room. An oversized floor lamp next to a tiny table or love seat can make a living room or den appear uneven. Try pairing large floor lamps with sizable sectionals and save the small lamps for side tables or accent chairs.

Type of Bulb

The type of light bulb you select will also have an effect on a room’s lighting. There are many choices when it comes to light bulbs for lamps, and each has their own pros and cons.

  • Incandescent: This standard bulb gives a warm, flattering light. It’s dimmable and inexpensive, but not terribly energy efficient
  • CFL: Short for compact fluorescent light, these bulbs are extremely energy efficient. They produce a very bright light, are not dimmable and are higher in cost than incandescents, but generally pay for themselves within one year.
  • LED: These bulbs are even more energy efficient than CFLs and last up to five times longer. Some are dimmable, however, the light doesn’t spread as well as with incandescent bulbs.

The long-term cost and energy savings of CFLs and LEDs are undeniable and they’ve come a long way. Choosing an LED bulb labeled “soft or warm white” and “dimmable” will give you the same light quality as a traditional incandescent bulb and you won’t have to change it for decades.! For a brighter, more energizing space, CFLs are best.

With these expert tips, you’ll be able to find the perfect lighting to suit your home and your style. Stop by any of our store locations in Illinois, Wisconsin or Indiana for more lighting inspiration or visit us online at www.theroomplace.com to shop our complete lighting collection from the comfort of your home.

Bar Stool Height Guide

Finding the perfect bar stools can be tricky. Not only is there color, style, and material to consider, but the right height is critical to a stool that is as functional as it is stylish. Narrowing down the right height for your bar, counter, or table is a great place to start when picking stools.

How Much Space Do You Need for Bar Stools?

When adding barstools to a counter or table, you need to bring legroom into the equation. You should leave about 10 inches between a seat and the counter or table. This distance is usually the most comfortable for someone of average height. To figure out how tall your chairs should be, grab a measuring tape, pencil, and paper. Measure from the floor to the top of the counter or table surface. Write down that number and subtract 10 inches to get the height of the stool you need for that space.

Remember to also measure the length of the counter to determine the number of stools that can fit in the space. A good rule of thumb is to allow 28 inches for each place setting.

COUNTER STOOLS

counter stools.jpg

What is the Difference Between Counter Height and Bar Height?

Overall, counter stools and bar stools are pretty similar. They both come in similar styles, and you can find options with and without backs. However, there is a bit of a height difference between the two. Counter-height bar stools tend to have a seat height of 24 inches, which makes them a great choice for most breakfast bars and kitchen counters. Keeping the 10-inch legroom rule in mind, they’re ideal for dining tables in the 34-39 inch range.

Bar-height stools are slightly taller and usually have a seat height of 30 inches. You may also see these called pub stools, and while pub stools are typically the same height, you always want to double-check product specifications. Bar stools work well with tables in the 40-43 inch range.

BAR STOOLS

bar stool

A third stool option is the table stool, but these aren’t sold at a standard height. If you want table stools, you’ll most likely need to purchase them as part of a dining set, but sometimes you can find them available individually. For a standard height table, look for a short stool or bench in the 18-22 inch range.

TABLE STOOLS

table stoolIf you have a non-standard height counter or table, adjustable-height bar stools will be your best bet. The seat height on these stools can be adjusted up to 10 inches to perfectly fit your space. At The RoomPlace you’ll find dozens of stools in all sizes and styles.

Glam Bedroom Makeover

glam-bedroom-set

our obsession with Hollywood: The glam style trend continues to be white hot. With luxurious fabrics and metallic accents, the glam style is showing up everywhere, especially in bedrooms. After all, who doesn’t want to wake up feeling glamorous?

What is Modern Glam Style?

Modern glam is becoming increasing popular, but what exactly constitutes as glam style? While you might be picturing flashy and glittery rooms, glam is on the subtle and sophisticated side. Don’t worry, there is plenty of sparkle involved, but it’s incorporated in a more refined way. Modern glam is often identified by neutrals, jewel colors, pastels, lots of texture and reflective surfaces like mirrors, metallics and crystals. Some common features seen in modern glam spaces are tufted furniture, faux fur ottomans, metal accent pieces and dramatic lighting fixtures such as crystal chandeliers.

How Do I Make My Bedroom Glamorous?

You don’t always need to buy all new furniture to put together a modern glam room. You can easily cover the basics with some décor and accessories. To get the glam look in your bedroom, bring in plenty of texture, like chenille and feathers, with throw pillows and blankets. Use metallic hardware, lamps, and candle holders for sparkle and sophistication. Put a soft area rug under foot, and hang a chandelier, and your glam bedroom makeover is complete.

Here are some more glam bedroom ideas:

  • Use dark, textured wallpaper as an accent wall behind your headboard
  • Get a silky gold throw blanket or a faux fur blanket for the end of the bed.
  • Add throw pillows with feathers, jewels, and ruffles.
  • Hang a trio of decorative mirrors above the bed.
  • Use mini chandeliers for bedside lighting.
  • Gray is a good pallet for a glam bedroom.
  • Add pops of color with a magenta velvet ottoman or a turquoise throw pillow.
  • Glam decor is big on floral, so fill crystal vases with all white flowers for your nightstands.

How Can I Make My Bedroom Look Upscale on a Budget?

Just because the glam style trend looks expensive, it doesn’t have to break the bank. If you’ve been searching for affordable bedroom makeovers, you’ve come to the right place. You can get a complete glam bedroom for less at The RoomPlace. When giving your bedroom a glam makeover, you want to find the perfect furniture set.
