Archie Bunker had one, Ralph Kramden had one, and even Homer Simpson has one. Accent chairs, recliners and other living room chairs have been household staples for years! But these furniture items have come a long way since the days of your grandfather’s tattered and stiff chair that he loved so much. There are different sizes, styles and comfort levels to suit all members of your family. This holiday season, get your loved one a piece of Americana with a new and stylish living room chair! Here are three tips for picking the perfect seating:

1. Decide Who the Chair Is Really For

The first question you want to ask yourself is who will be using this chair. Will it be your husband for watching the big game? Or will you be curling up with a good book after a long day? If this is true, you want something very comfortable and great for lounging. Microfiber or leather chairs are both good choices. Microfiber is velvety soft and will provide long hours of comfort. Plus, it’s simple to clean. Leather is equally as easy to maintain, and the sleek material complements most existing living room furniture.  

If you are buying a chair for an older person, choose a chair that is sturdier and has arms. This will make it easier for the person to get in and out with ease. A firm chair with a high back will offer ample support and the comfort they need for reading, drinking or watching TV.

But if you are simply looking for a chair that will enhance your room's decor and occasionally act as additonal seating, then a chaise or patterned chair may be exactly what you are looking for. Picking a chair with a unique design will show off your sense of personal style. A chaise is a great choice becaise it gives any room a feeling of elegance and can quickly become the focal point. Choosing the right chaise or patterned chair will give your room a look of class!

2.  Know the Floor Plan and Function

Before you fall in love with the perfect accent chair, make sure you understand your living room's floor plan. You don’t want to pick a chair that is too large or too small for the room. Accent chairs come in many different sizes, so you need to know how much space you have to work with. You want to make sure people can navigate comfortably around the room without it feeling like an obstacle course. Larger furniture can be complemented by a smaller chair, giving the illusion of more space. It is important to remember not to over clutter your room with bulky furniture it can't handle. If the room looks too busy, it will take away from the beauty of your new accent chair.

You also want to keep the chair's function in mind. Accent chairs are great for additional seating. If you plan on using your chair in other rooms, like the dining room, pick a chair that is smaller and lighter. This way you can easily move it from room to room. If your chair is going to be used solely in the living room, make sure it is comfortable enough to sit in for long periods. Perhaps you will want one with an ottoman that can act as a bench seat when needed. Once you know how you plan to use the chair, you can better pick the right one for your space.

3. Pick What You Love

The most important thing to remember when choosing a new living room chair is to choose one you love. If you pick something that serves a function but does not appeal to you, you’ll regret your choice. You can easily mix and match an accent chair to complement existing living room furniture. Pick a bold pattern to spice up a neutral sofa and loveseat. Or add a sleek, modern look with a dark leather chair!  If your room is already bright and bold, you can soften it with a neutral chair.Take your living room rug, walls, lamps and curtains into consideration. You can bring out the colors in these items with the right accent chair tp create a balanced look.

Remember: Have fun and play around with design and pattern. The right accent chair for your living room with make you look like a design expert and have all your friends talking!

People love when a home is full of eclectic pieces that work well together, but many find it difficult to mix and match living room furniture on their own and still have an overall sense of style that holds the room together.  It can be scary to pull off, but with these helpful tips you can add some excitement to your home with a mix-and-match living room! 

Mix & Match Finishes & Textures

Have fun mixing and matching furniture finishes. Darker wood and lighter wood can combine and complement each other nicely when done right. For example, if you have a dark wooden coffee table, you can lighten the room up by adding light wood-finished side tables. Or try a rich burgundy entertainment center with a lighter oak cocktail table. This contrast will make the furniture pop.

Another simple way to play with texture is to match the chair and sofa but throw in a leather chaise to mix things up! Or you can add a corduroy or textured loveseat. This is a great way to break the room up and add interest.

Color & Pattern

Don’t stop at the furniture's finish and texture. Change up color and pattern, too!  If you are nervous about adding color, keep it easy and stay in the same color family. You can choose warm colors for fall, like orange, yellow and red, for your color scheme. Or  if you prefer a cooler color try grouping light blues and greens. Staying within these realms will help you maintain the room’s cohesiveness

Patterns can be another good way to express your personal style and eye for design. Adding a patterned accent chair, ottoman or rug to your already existing living room set can spice up your decor. If you have an earth-toned sofa, add a chair with a funky pattern that includes the same shades. The key to mixing and matching patterned living room furniture is to fill the room with pieces you love and try not to overthink it. Home design should be fun!

There are no strict rules when it comes to mixing and matching living room furniture. Your first priority is to please yourself by picking pieces that inspire you. If you do this, you will be sure to create a living room you love!

For years, we all thought a man’s best friend was his dog, but now we know this is just not true. To have a happy husband, father, brother or son, you need to give the gift of leisure! A home that is equipped an entertainment room where he can sit back comfortably and watch the big game is heaven for most men.

Seating is one of the most important furniture buys for creating a great entertainment room!  First, choose the type of seating. Do you see yourself relaxing on a recliner or other motion furniture piece equipped with cup holders? This type of living room furniture is extremely relaxing and can make you feel like you are at the movies! Or do you need a sectional with plenty of space for your large family and lots of visitors? Another thing to keep in mind is fabric. Leather will give a room a sleek, modern feel and is easy to clean, and microfiber is extremely soft and has a velvety feel, perfect for relaxing, either would be great choices for this space.

#2 HDTV

Buying a new TV is very exciting, and now they come equipped with many different features. You can easily upgrade to an HDTV, LED or 3-D technology at a reasonable price. A plasma screen is made of glass and may show more glare, but the colors on an LCD TV are not as vivid. Consider all your options before making your big purchase. Talk to family and friends and find out what they love about their televisions -- it may help you choose what would be best for you! When considering screen size, you may be tempted to go big, but remember, your TV needs to wotk with the size of the room. If you go too big, you may regret it later on. And don't forget to give your new TV a home in an entertainment center. These units also come in many different styles and sizes and can offer fantastic storage capabilites.

When creating your entertainment, area don’t forget the rest of your household. These days, man caves are not only for the men.
