furniture trends

Over the last few weeks, I’ve been reading up on the furniture trends for Summer 2013. One trend that seems to keep popping up is wrapped furniture. The furniture can be wrapped in anything from leather to eclectic fabric to textured materials like jute or rattan. I’ve seen wrapped dressers, wrapped side tables and wrapped headboards. Well, what about wrapped TV lift cabinets? Luckily for you, TVLiftCabinet.com shopper, you can stay right on trend with one of our trunk TV lift cabinets!

Antiquity and Carlton are almost identical, save for their different color leather – Antiquity is brown, Carlton is black - and distressing that is unique to each trunk . Both cabinets have hardwood straps with hand hammered nail heads for a chic vintage look. When not in use, the cabinet looks like a stylish leather trunk. When you want to watch TV, use the small remote control to magically reveal your TV and components!

Another trunk that fits perfectly with the wrapped furniture trend is Bermuda Run.

1.       Recycled wood – In order to live “green”, many folks are using recycled wood in their home furnishings.  Try furnishing your home this year with an Amish TV Lift Cabinet made with recycled wood.  Using recycled wood is a great way to reduce carbon footprints.

2.       Oui la France! - French influences are gaining momentum this year. Expect to see The Old World romance of vintage French pieces from the 1930s and 1940s. French motifs such as fleur de lys and quatrefoils add excellent soft features to any room.

3.       Metallic and copper accents – Can we say bling?  People want luxury! Shiny metallic and copper finishes achieve this glamorous look on a relatively affordable budget.

4.       Patterns, patterns, patterns – people will always love patterns.  This year expect to see bolder, more colorful patterns with more African tribal and Mexican influences.

5.       Color me gray – This year gray is the new neutral.  Keep a lookout for washed out purple grays
