It's a mess!

"You can't take pictures now - it's a mess!" Linda told me when I pulled out my camera. My response: "Umm where?" Finders Keepers Furnishings looked as beautiful and inspiring as always, and I'd already eyed four or fives things I wanted to take home with me. I mean this girl KNOWS a mess - like last weekend when my husband helped me clean out my car, during which he unceremoniously unearthed a book called "Tips to Unclutter Your Home" from a pile of food wrappers, water bottles, a couple of jackets, a pair of rainboots, elastic cables, and moving blankets. Or my purse, which currently holds: my wallet, a smattering of wadded up receipts, a paint-can opener, a pack of bobby pins, a measuring tape, a camera charger, nine fun-sized starburst packs, and an empty box of gum. Linda relented - mostly because she was too busy rearranging ENORMOUS pieces of furniture in the lower level of the store to waste time arguing with a very stubborn me. I'll let you be the judge: do you see a mess? Because I sure don't!

Janet Jackson is Sleeping in our Bed!

Tyler Perry's "For Colored Girls" comes out in theaters today. We at Finders Keepers Furnishings are HUGE fans of Tyler Perry - not only because he's super talented and tackles hard issues in his productions, but also because he's a sincerely nice man. We get the honor and priveledge of working with his set crew when they frequent our shop for set furniture and decor. In "For Colored Girls" most of Janet Jackson's character's bedroom set is from Finders Keepers Furnishings! In honor of our pseudo-cameo, here are a few pictures of other beds currently available in our store:

Ikea King-size Bed

Cannonball King-size bed

Tommy Bahama King-size rattan bed

Couch It

I finally get that expression! To couch an idea - to, ya know, let it sit and ponder for a while. (I also just learned that the word "pondre" in french means: to lay an egg, like a chicken. Kind of the same concept in a far-fetched way.... but I digress. In a nut shell (or a chicken egg...) we've got a TON of couches in right now. From moleskin to finished wood, slouchy to structured, overstuffed to straight lines, gray to purple to green, there's some good places to put your feet up around here and, you know, couch it!
