The Power of Accent Chairs

Add a little drama, and extra seating space, in your home. A well-placed accent chair can add a dose of personality — and practicality — in a living area.

By placing a colorful, comfy chair near a window and adding a lamp and side table, you can create an instantly stylish reading space.

Whether you’re looking to make a style statement, create a conversation space or add a relaxing reading nook in your home, accent chairs can be the perfect solution.

They allow you to express your personal style and add charm to any room. Accent chairs can bring new touches of color, texture and shape, and they are versatile enough to be used in your living room,bedroom, home office or other seating or living areas.

Have a look at our range of Alstons Accent Chairs here.

Looking for a space-saving bed with storage to put in a smaller bedroom?

If the idea of a pull-down bed conjures up images of cramped bedsits, or if a bed with drawers makes you think of tired student divans, it’s time to rethink your preconceptions. Today’s clever bed designs manage to combine style and practicality with aplomb. There are now many multi-functional designs and canny under-bed storage solutions to help you make the most of your space.

Your bed is likely to be the most prominent piece of furniture in your bedroom, so choose a bed type that fits with the style and size of the room.

Make sure to measure your space then decide how large or small a bed you’d like – or can fit – in your bedroom.

Measure your bedroom if you’re moving into a new home, allowing ample space at either side of where the bed will fit to accommodate bedside tables or other furniture.

We carry a great range of space saving beds from Silent Night, Rest Assured, Burgess Beds and Sealy. You can choose from four options; two drawers, four drawers, four drawer continental (2 large and 2 half size drawers) and ottoman beds.

G Plan understands everybody’s different. It’s one of the things that ensures nothing compares to the comfort of a G Plan sofa.

Simply close the door, slip off your shoes, lie back, close your eyes and feel your stresses melt away. What’s even more comforting – knowing how durable it is and that it’s been meticulously crafted to last. It’s why we’re more than happy to offer a 1O-year frame and spring guarantee. True relaxation.

Wow this really is a beauty isn’t it?

A beautiful Alstons Sofa in a very contemporary on trend fabric…this year we expect to see an increase in eclectic interiors that show a willingness to make bolder statements with pattern and texture.

Our lads have just delivered this suite to one of our lovely. loyal customers. And they were thrilled!!!!

Alstons have a huge range of styles and fabrics so you can choose something totally that is either a statement piece or fits with your colour palette.

2016 will be the year to experiment with pattern. We will see an increase in eclectic interiors that show a willingness to make bolder statements with pattern and texture. We will move away from the simple colour and single print combination, and instead favour a contrasting mix of paisleys, geometrics, florals and stripes, all incorporated under one scheme. Use pattern on small pieces such as cushions, rugs or an accent chair and offset against a plain block colour wall for an on-trend look in 2016.

Just in Wycombe Fireside Chair from Hudson Living. This beautifully crafted piece of furniture is from their workshops in High Wycombe.

This family company shares our family values and we’re proud to have such fine British furniture in our showroom. Frank Hudson established his company in 1947 and the business has been making fine furniture ever since. Three generations of family have guided the business, designing and creating classically crafted furniture which can be found in homes and hotels all over the world.

Did you know May Day has roots in pagan Anglo-Saxon customs and the pagan festival Beltane, which marks the beginning of summer.

Typically, on May Day villages and towns across the UK now mark the beginning of springtime fertility.

This would usually be celebrated with large gatherings of communities, villages holding fetes and other fun activities. The May Queen is also crowned on May Day, and often sees local schoolgirls compete for the crown in honour of Flora, the Roman goddess.

But where does maypole dancing come into all this?

Maypole dancing is another tradition celebrated on May Day, and is seen as a way of saying farewell to winter. Even though summer does not begin until June, May Day is a celebration of things coming to life.

Enjoy your weekend.
