What are some good places to get bedroom furniture and bedding?

Q. besides urban outfitters, anthropologie, potterybarn(kids and teens), crate and barrel, and cb2. Thanks!

A. Try small antique stores, local church rummage sales, garage sales, craigslist, etc.


How can I earn extra money while my kids are at school? I already have a daycare in our home.?
Q. I already have a daycare in our home. I can't take any more kids. We desperatly need more income due to MANY setbacks this year. Ideas please?

A. I recently signed up with the international programs office at a local college. I'm now hosting an international student who pays $550/month to live in our spare bedroom. That might be an option.

You could always think about a 2nd job. deliver pizzas or something just to get through the rough spots.

consider selling stuff. Have a garage sale or sell some bigger items on ebay or craigslist.

Try to get extra revenue through the daycare by offering "Date nights" for an extra fee. You could offer to care for the kids who are already in your daycare for a few hours on a Friday evening so the parents can go out for a date. Trust me, there are lots of parents out there who will jump on the opportunity to have a night alone with their spouse.


How much did it cost for your to furnish your place?
Q. I'm wondering how much it would cost to furnish a 3 bedroom, 2000 sq. ft home. We're planning to buy all new furniture.

How much did it cost for you, and what furniture stores did you go to? Do you have a lot of hand-me-downs? Please include how many bedrooms you have and/or square footage.

A. Furnishing you home can be very expensive. I have a 1200 sq. ft home with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Furnishing the living room and the bedroom were the most expensive. These two rooms cost approximately $1500/room to furnish. All our furniture came from Rooms to Go. I waited on sales and discounts before making any big purchases. The kids room and guest room were less expensive to furnish. These rooms were less expensive because we didn't buy room packages and purchased the neccesities, such as just the bed and dresser or nightstand (s). The kids room and guest room cost approximately $800/room. Furnishings for these rooms came from Ikea. The dining room cost approximately $400. The dining room set came from the Room Store. I waited for sales and discounts before making any purchases here too. Most furniture stores have a family and friends day were they give the customer 10 to 20 percent off their products. Use the 10 to 20 percent coupon on a day when there is also a sale. You could save 200 to 500 dollars on furniture. Also, ask for free delivery specials; paying for delivery can get expensive. Note: When buying furniture packages, make sure the price is less than buying the pieces seperate. I found an error in a package price where the package price was more than if I bought the prices seperate. I saved myself an extra $100.

As far as hand me downs, I do not have any. However if you have old living furniture such as sofas, chairs, or loveseats, you can go to a furniture upholstery store or outlet and have you living furniture revamped in the style you want at a cost lower than buying new furniture. Your furniture will be custom.


Where to find cheap kids bedroom furniture?
Q. I have now looked over a million different places to find inexpensive bedroom furniture for my daughter. I have looked in department stores and online however I just cannot find anything around here. If you could throw some advice out for me I would completely appreciate it. Thanks

A. I've had 3 kids and I can assure you they were not cheap! Have you tried the charity shops and auction sales? The YMCA has shops and their furniture is ridiculously inexpensive - don't bother if the wood or metal is not to your liking -m you can paint it to your choice. Provided you cover yourselves up it is a fun thing to do together assuming your child is old enough.
