I know what I want, I want a desert eclectic home

While my husband was in the Navy, we moved around a lot so we didn’t put a lot of emphasis on our furniture. To be honest, most of our furniture was found curbside after other military members moved away. When Jim’s contract finally ended, we settled down in the Southwest and we both swore we would never move again. That’s when I finally decided it was time to get rid of our old, my hand-me-down, furniture and purchase custom furniture that really speaks to who we are. I have always liked the desert eclectic look. Moving around a lot, I’ve made friends in just about every state in this country, plus a few other countries too. That means I’ve seen a lot of living room sets. Still, what I really want is a desert eclectic home with everything made out of wood: wooden chairs, wooden tables, wooden bed frames and dressers, and wooden end tables. Everything should look natural and have that southwestern elegance. I know exactly what I want, it’s just going to take a little bit of time to get it. To start with, I’m going to paint all of the walls in the house white. Then I have some abstract art from Spain that I can hang around. That just leaves the sofa. I’m sure I can get a custom built couch that will match my desert eclectic home. I might have much of the wooden furniture custom built as well. After all, custom built furniture lasts much longer than any of the cheap living room sets you can find in larger stores.
