Modern Fall Centerpieces

> Keep it simple & monochromatic. Paint pumpkins or gourds of varied sizes the same color. For a nuetral look try painting them white or silver. If you are looking for more 'pop' paint them a bright color such as apple green, or harvest orange. Photo from DwellStudio.com

"To sit, to sleep, to dream."

What is the first thought you have when you think of fold-out sofa sleepers?

"Uncomfortable," or "Sleepless night" maybe?


We have all slept on those horrible fold-out sofa sleepers where you can't get a minute of 'shut-eye' resulting from the bar or spring pressing into your back, or you just can't get comfortable because the mattress sags in the middle and you keep sliding to the center of the bed. Because of sleepless nights experienced on these type of traditional sofa sleeper, many people tend to shy away from them.


Well, there really is a better solution. We promise!!


A sofa sleeper that is comfortable as both a sofa and a bed...










No bars, no springs, and no sagging!!!


-Winner of the Comsumer Digest's best value in sofa sleepers-










So, what makes it so different?



A lot of things...



-Patented 24/7 platform sleep system features a solid platform base under the entire mattress, hence you bars protruding into your back.

-The mattresses are covered in Crypton fabric, which is a waterproof & stain-proof covering that also resists allergens and dust mites.

-The mattress is made up of 5 inches of plush, high-density foam that provides ergonomic support. The Comfort Sleeper can also be ordered with a Tempur-Pedic mattress.

-The Comfort Sleeper is available in a variety of sizes ranging from a King to a Cot to fit any room.


-A choice of over hundreds of fabrics and over 80 premium leathers.

- Nine different styles to pick from.

-All hardwood frames.

-Lifetime warranty on frame & suspension.



Come into one of our showrooms to try out The Comfort Sleeper.
That's right come lay on one, just no drooling!




We promise you won't find a better sofa sleeper!

How to Spice up a Room




1) Add some color.

Just adding a 'pop' of color to a room can make a huge difference. This can be achieved through painting a wall an accent color, painting the inside of a bookshelf a contrasting color, adding some colorful throw pillows to a sofa, or placing an intriguing rug on the floor.

2) Splurge on an 'eye catching' piece of furniture.

This could be acheived through using a zebra ottoman, a wildy upholstered chair,
or a funky cocktail table, to name a few examples.

3) Place bold accessories in the space.

Instead of cluttering up a space with small trinket-like accessories use
bold accessories that stand out and make a statement.

4) Hang a mirror(s) on the wall.

Mirrors can make a small space look larger. Look for mirrors that are unique in shape, or have an interesting frame - there are a lot of really cool mirrors out there (we have some in our showroom, come check them out).


5) Update the lighting fixtures.

Consider adding a little 'bling' by hanging a unqiue chandlier instead of your average flush mount lighting fixture or a dull ceiling lamp. Use hanging pendants over a bar or counter instead of recessed lighting. Find a funky table lamp to sit on the end table, instead of that boring lamp found at Wal-Mart for $15.


6) Place a fresh floral arrangement on the cocktail table.


7) Clear away clutter.

Just making a few small adjustments can really add a 'wow' factor to your room.
