No More Matching Furniture Sets!

Hey everyone, Lesley Myrick here - with a
squeaky chair. What. Is. Happening? Hey everyone, Lesley Myrick here - I'm an
interior stylist and I transform boring beige spaces into kickass colorful homes with an
offbeat edge that are livable, delightful, and unexpected.

Today, we're going to talk about break ups. I'm not talking romantic break ups - I am
talking breaking up that matchy-matchy set of living room furniture with a sofa, and
loveseat, and chair that all matches and coordinates perfectly. These were super popular in the 80s and 90s
and even a little bit into the 2000s, and I'm sad to say that I still see them today,
and they are not a good idea. It's a total no-no to do too much matching
in your home.

Sure, you want things to make sense, have
something visual that ties them together and have a cohesive look - but, I think that's
better accomplished through mixing and matching the right pieces than just sticking with a
pre-made set that some retailer has decided goes together. So, if you have one of those living room sets,
you've invested good money in it, what do you do? Well, friend, it's time for a breakup. The pieces on their own are probably great. It's together when they're all matching, that's
when things get a little bit stale.

So why not repurpose some of those pieces
in other parts of your home? A loveseat or a settee can be a great fit
in a master bedroom, and I love the idea of using an accent chair in an office or on a
landing - somewhere where you want a little somewhere to perch, sit, maybe read a book,
but you don't need a full living room setup. Alternatively, if the pieces have good bones,
but it's just the fact that they're all upholstered in the same boring fabric that's kind of becoming
a snoozefest, you could look at re-upholstering one or more of the pieces. The fact that the frames tend to be similar
and the proportions are good together means that with some change of fabrics you could
totally transform the look without buying all new pieces of furniture. If you do decide to keep your matching set
together all in one room, there are a lot of little ways you can make each piece feel
unique, even though they are all the same.

Different pillows, throws, slipcovers. You can mix and match different soft textiles
and decorative accessories to really give each piece its own personality but still have
it work together as a whole. So, never fear if you are stuck in the 80s
with your matching sofa, chair, and loveseat set - there is hope for you. If you do like it all as a set, you can personalize
each piece and make it work in one space.

However, if you're kind of over the matching
look, break it up, spread it throughout your home, and give each piece new life. If you liked this video, be sure to share
it with a friend and spread the love. And if you want more inspiration to help transform
your home, hop on over to my website at lesleymyrick.Com where you can download my free guide, Bring
Personality to a Boring Space..

I Want To Be A SofaMy Weird Addiction

My name is Olympia, um I'm 17 I'm just a
regular suburban chick and I am addicted to pretending to be furniture. I think
it's it's something I've just loved doing all my life and it stems from you
know one sort of Christmas my aunt Rosemary sat on me accidentally -
she didn't mean to - and I was frightened and horrified at first but you know the
more that I've sort of recalled and remembered it I wish she'd do it again. I have to do it it's a compulsion. I'll be
doing you know the washing up - some sort of regular you know day-to-day activity
and I'll remember that I just love being furniture and I have to just - have to do it.

My name is Nova. I am Olympia's... Let's
say life partner. Olympia is addicted to taking on the roles of various pieces of
furniture.

Well we live in a very small apartment I just don't understand how
she thinks I don't know. She - I don't think she - she has no idea I am very aware of this... I don't want to say sickness? Hobby? Perhaps? Um, when you're standing with a lampshade on your head that's not inconspicuous. I can't explain
it I don't expect anyone to understand it I just fucking love it.

You know an
armchair, a chaise lounge you know I'm there. It's getting to the point now
where it's really affecting - affecting me and I'm... You know... I don't know how I'm
going to tell my family and my friend.

I've got this wonderful partner Nova
and she has no idea that I do it. You're not incognito I can see that you're
standing there with a lampshade on your head. I'm yet to bring this to her
attention though I'm, I'm - I'm worried about what it would be like for our relationship if
I brought this up with her so as - as of right now she doesn't know that I'm - I'm
aware of this. Um, so, I mean, I've brought you here today...

I just, um, I have something to tell you Nova. It's... It's kind of a big deal I suppose
it's kind of hard for me to say this um (What?) I am addicted to being furniture. (Oh for fuck's sake) Um, it's something you know I've had to battle with for a very long time
and I know that you never suspected you've got no idea - Oh I know about the
furniture thing that you do.

No you don't know you have no idea. (You do this, this thing...) Basically what I do is... (Where you pretend to be furniture) I pretend to be furniture - no  you don't know you don't - let me just finish please. Do you honestly think I don't know?! I'm sorry I can't.

I'm sorry.
I'm just addicted to being furniture. I feel it, I am it. I am that armchair. We
already have so much furniture what else could she possibly turn in to? Sometimes I feel like she wants me just to sit on her..
