How to Shop for Furniture??
Hello Friends
1)Decide What You Need:Measure the space where you'll put the new piece, keeping in mind that you'll need room between other pieces for walking and traffic patterns. You might want a sofa but realize that you really only have room for a loveseat or a pair of armless chairs. Write the numbers down so that you can confirm them when you find something that you like. 2)Set Your Budget:There's nothing more discouraging than finding a piece you can't afford. Set you budget and don't look at things that would break the bank. 3)Plan Ahead:Do some research on the internet. Find the websites for furniture manufacturers and see what they have to offer. You'll most likely be able to see everything that each company makes, get exact dimensions of each piece, see the different finishes available, and see the pieces arranged in decorator rooms. If you see something you really like, you can order the company's catalog to be sent to your home. 4)Learn All You Can Without Leaving Your Home:If you find a piece you like, look at the fabric options or wood finishes available. Try to picture the piece in your home. Locate a store in your area that carries the line of furniture you've found. Check their opening hours.
Have a great day

Re: How to Shop for Furniture??
First of all Fix your budget.
Have a mental picture of the space which u want to furnish and also what type of furniture would u like there for eg, vintage or modern etc.
Explore online, because u get a whole varieties there more than what you can get in a regular shop, then make a note of the prices online then go the regular shops, compare the varities and prices, then u can decide whether u want to buy it online or at a regular shop.
Make a note of the color and contrast that would go with the room u want to furnish and the furniture.
Look for comfort rather than style.

* Set Your Budget There's nothing more discouraging than finding a piece you can't afford. Set you budget and don't look at things that would break the bank. While it's a good idea to buy the most expensive and best constructed piece of furniture that you can afford, you wouldn't want to spend every penny you have available on one piece of furniture and then not be able to paint the walls!
* Plan Ahead Do some research on the internet. Find the websites for furniture manufacturers and see what they have to offer. You'll most likely be able to see everything that each company makes, get exact dimensions of each piece, see the different finishes available, and see the pieces arranged in decorator rooms.
