For the last few years, I’ve slowly been updating my century-old house and it is no small job. Walls have been replaced, new flooring has been put down, wiring has sometimes needed work…the process has sometimes seemed endless but bit by bit the house is looking better and better. And while some of the work is tiring, some is actually quite enjoyable. I may not enjoy pulling down lathe and plaster walls, for example, but I absolutely love picking out new furniture for an updated room!
My last major furniture update was new beds and mattresses for my boys and it was so much fun setting up the pieces in their rooms and putting on new bedding for both of them. Even better, since replacing their worn-out coil mattresses with new, comfortable memory foam mattresses, both Zackary and Benjamin have been sleeping better too!
But the furniture purchases for our house are nowhere near complete! The next major purchase I’ll be making is a new living room set to replace my current outdated set and when I’m ready to start shopping, I’ll be heading to Leon’s! While Leon’s has been a Canadian institution for decades now, the store is freshening up its merchandise with trendy new styles at incredible prices.
In fact, Leon’s recently turned to its Facebook fans for help showcasing some of its hottest new furniture offerings. Fans had the chance to design the cover shot for the Leon’s flyer by voting on their favourite colour scheme and furniture. Seeing as how this is the exact room I need to furnish, I was pretty excited to see which look won.
The Palermo sofa and Architect coffee table that fans chose were absolutely gorgeous, but it was the colour schemes and accessories that were added to the room that really inspired my creativity. The light brown and gold theme that won was my personal favourite; it would look amazing with the chocolate-brown walls of my living room!
Need a little decorating inspiration of your own? Check out the latest Leon’s Looks for Less commercial to see some of the store’s hottest new pieces and design ideas. From trendy kitchen sets to stylish sofas, creating a great look for any room in your house has never been easier!
It’s clear that Leon’s has plenty of options for anyone craving a modern new look for their home, but the store’s affordable prices make a good thing even better for anyone that’s redecorating a room. Take a look at the selection for yourself and find a style that suits your home perfectly without spending a fortune!
