In the “spirit of the season” (pun intended), here are a few tricks and treats when looking at rejuvenating your family areas for the upcoming holiday season.
Trick: Count backwards from your special event. This time of year, sofa/recliner factories are running full bore. Don’t put unnecessary pressure on yourself by ordering a 12-week estimated time of arrival piece in hopes it arrives by turkey day.
Treat: Murphy’s locally built Stanton offers an exciting express program (5 weeks for stationary orders and 6 weeks for motion orders.) Remember, add a week(ish) if scheduling home delivery.
Trick: Don’t be afraid of lighter colors. Today’s super cleanable fabrics allow choosing lighter color fabric for your sofa (much needed in these “grey days.”)
Treat: Stanton has 100’s of stain resistant fabric options (Murphy’s primary source for recliners, sofas and sleepers.)
Trick: Slipcovers can be a great temporary fix. A holiday blanket can quickly cover a wayward stain on your existing pieces.
Treat: Pulling off the blanket and tossing it in the washer makes for fast “after-party clean-up.”
Trick: Do double duty with your furniture purchase. If needing extra sleeping spots for out-of-town visitors, consider adding a futon sofa. These easy to convert hardwood frames arrive in days and locally sewn mattresses provide a stylish way to sleep by day and comfy space to sleep at night.
Treat: All sofas, recliners, sleepers, futons and more are on sale the entire month of November during Murphy’s Furniture upholstery sale.
