I am utterly obsessed with my cherry wood furniture even though it’s not the number one preferred furniture for this modern era.
In fact, many of my friends with modern homes believe that my cherry wood furniture is a little bit dated.
My friend Ginny even told me my furniture reminds her of the furniture at her Grandma’s house. While this might be a popular opinion, I still want the classic look and style of cherry wood furniture. Plus, the wood finish comes in so many odd colors so there are lots of variety to choose from. Moreover, I believe that the vintage cherry wood furniture can be paired with other pieces to create a modern or sleek, contemporary look. Personally, I like taking risks when it comes to decorating my home, and it drives me crazy seeing every home with the same style of furniture. It lacks creativity and it tells me that all the people went to the same furniture stores in the village that Ginny and I live in. I like unique accents, and I like antique wooden pieces as well. And if I could find something that is both an antique as well as unique , I have hit the big jackpot. This is why I cherish going to estate sales because I can really find some wonderful wooden pieces there. And yep, much of the furniture at an estate sale is old, but regularly they are in wonderful condition. It beats buying the cookie cutter furniture from the local furniture store in my town. Anyway, although Ginny may not like my taste in furnishings, I won’t change my mind about liking cherry wood furniture. Because unlike Ginny, I don’t believe it’s dated at all.
