I have a bone to pick! I am disappointed in our local furnitre stores. It seems that everyone around our area (within comfortable driving distance and delivery range) decorates their houses in country motif! I am sick of it! also we have a rash of people who do classic, victorian and other things you would find out in the middle of nowhere. So when it comes time for me to decorate i cannot find anything! I love ikea. but it is all the way in Canton, MI. Eq3 is all the way in Grand Rapids. And so either i pay through the nose for delivery or just as much to borrow or rent a truck and get it myself. I have tried to get EQ3 from Art van but they Botched the entire sale and now i do not recommend them to anyone because the sales person was not well informed on the product and we did not get what we want and it took them 10 months to resolve our issue!
I have also been angry at a lot of dealers, makers and what-not. What is with the idea that contemporary means black? can't you make it is light colors too?? When you decide you want something contemporary from one of those wal mart or target finds they are in either black or espresso. What about white? what about light maple?? Blond pine?? anything.
Just because it is temporary they make it dark but that throws off my Qi. I cannot do dark colors and sharp corners, too drastic. I like light airy things but shapr and crisp.
So now i have found some things on the net but nowhere in the state to get them. *sigh*
