Whenever we want to buy some furniture for home, we practically think of our expenses and try to save money too. But then why would you want to waste money on items that you don't need to spend that much on? On the other hand, there are a few items that do need our extravagant purse. Don't get confused, we have put together a list of what you should spend on and on what you can save.
What To Spend On
Fixtures & Appliances
If you buy something 'sasta' in this arena, you will end up spending a lot on maintenance issues. Spend money on these things like refrigerators, faucets and all. However, you can save on your lighting and the textures as you can get good quality at affordable prices for these.
Sofa
Get a nice sofa, good quality is prime for this. You have to buy something that will last and not become problematic in two years. Get pieces with eight-way hand-tied springs and with something that has cushions stuffed with the downmix and not polyfill.
Mattresses
Now this one is very important especially for your back. It is sleep that we are talking about over here. How can you compromise on something you will sleep on?! Buy the best mattress you can afford.
Linen
Splurge on nice sheets on which you sleep. Get the high-quality European linens which will get at good prices in stores. It is sale time at the moment so what are you waiting for?
Meaningful Objects
Your home should tell the story of who you are, what you love... basically your personality. So if you see something you love or is of prime importance to you then pick it up and display! 'Mann mat maaro', buy it if you love it that much! BuyArtshai Mini Antique Look Camera Model, for Rs 1599, here.
Save Money On These
Desks & Dining Tables
Invest in tables but don't go extravagant as after a few years you tend to get bored with them. People tend to notice your chairs and the tableware more than your desk and dining table frankly speaking. When the table is set, it sort of disappears.
Headboards
The headboard is frankly useless as they do not give you comfort in your sleep but just gives the room a good look. So buy something simple and sleek perhaps... don't overspend.

Window Treatments
If you are planning to buy some drapes then do a bit of homework and believe me, you will find really good deals on them. All you need to do is keep it simple and measure correctly.

Anything in Bold Colors
If you want an orange sofa... you sure will get bored with it in a few years. Which is why many buy neutral coloured ones. So buy nice pillows and throws but not the big items like a sofa.
Throw Pillows
You can spend thousands on a decorative pillow, or a few hundred and still make a statement. You get bored of these things so you can toss them out in some time as well... but if you spend oodles, you will not throw them and the buy will bite you. BuyAEROHAVEN Satin Decorative Throw Pillow/Cushion Covers (12 x 12 Inches, Multicolour) - Set of 5, at a discounted price of Rs 458, here.
Children's Furniture
Buy something safe when it comes to children's furniture but don't spend a bomb on them as the kids will outgrow them soon.
Flowers
Why on earth would you spend a lot on floral arrangements? Even few well-cut roses are good so why get extravagant flowers which die in a day or two?
