Watson’s 87 Furniture is a family-owned and -operated business opened in 1977 by the late Jack Watson.
It offers quality and value at prices equal to or lower than competitors, as well as personal service in a friendly atmosphere. With years of experience, Watson’s offers practical advice to help you enjoy and maintain your furniture for years to come.
Are you remodeling this spring or summer? Let Watson’s plant some seeds for thought. How do you plan to use the space? Draw a sketch of your ideal area and imagine your family and friends using it. How will you lay out furniture, entertainment items, TV, gaming systems, etc.? Get realistic wall and floor measurements of furnishings you are thinking of.
You can begin by measuring the pieces you have and comparing what’s available. Check sofas, end tables, entertainment stands, tables with chairs, bed sizes and bedroom pieces, whatever you think you want. Keep these in mind when placing windows, doorways, stairs, fireplaces, cabinetry, built-ins, closets, electrical outlets, lighting, ceiling fans or any non-movable items.
There is nothing worse than a new area where you can’t get the furniture or appliances through a door, around a corner, down a hall or up the stairs. Or the beautiful new bay window being the only wall a sofa will fit on because the 55-inch TV is taking up the only other wall in the room without openings or other immovable items.
It’s awkward not to have enough electrical outlets in entertainment areas. We’ve all seen the chandelier not centered over the table because no one measured with chairs or considered traffic flow around it.
One last thought, will there be a way to rearrange to add longevity to your furniture and flooring by changing traffic patterns and seating habits?
