Don't forget or dismiss resale shops. Bargains and Treasures yielded many bargains and treasures for our first house here. I had never looked at a resale shop before but they only take NICE stuff that is NOT worn. I found a really RED lamp that I painted white and it fit in nicely with the beachy, cottagy feel I was trying to do.
We found a set we really liked in Cincinnati and went to Southern Lifestyles and they ordered it for us at a lower price with free delivery. Don't overlook places like TJMaxx, they have some interesting tables and even chairs and some great lamps and I found some interesting accessories at Dockside in Leesburg.
Happy Hunting!!
