Recliner chairs take those moments to the next level, making your time to rejuvenate that much more soothing. The right recliner makes those moments last longer, rewarding your hard work with well-earned comfort.

Catnapper Softie Oversized Reclining Chaise

Known for their luxurious oversized plush furniture, Catnapper recliners are definitely worth a look. Manufactured by Jackson Furniture, these products range from impressive sectionals and sofa sets to distinctive chaise and extra-roomy armchair designs. We love their Softie line for the quilted pillow-top design that begs to be lounged in.

Catnapper also produces more refined looks, ideal for a traditional home. Look at the leather recliners, sofas, loveseats, and chairs in their Sonoma or Buckingham collections.

Start with the walls. Colors typically found in a cottage style bedroom include the yellows of lemons, buttercups and sandy beaches; the blues of a summer sky, a seascape and twilight witnessed from winding country road; and the greens of summer grass, forests and country apples. Soft pastels in milk paint are a good choice. Using painting techniques such as glazing or stenciling are also some other ways to give the room a cottage style atmosphere with a little touch of country thrown into the mix.

The cottage style palette can also be brought into the room through furniture pieces like the Riverside Furniture Splash of Color California King Panel Bed. Cottage style furniture is commonly made of wood. Beds and other types of bedroom furniture like dressers or a chest of drawers might have beadboarding, decorative molding or scalloped aprons. Headboards and footboards commonly have round finials. Finishes are often distressed for an antiqued or lived-in appearance. While wood is the construction material of choice in a cottage style bedroom, a tufted headboard in off-white, cream or a soft pastel such as rose or mint would not be out of place.

When choosing fabrics for dressing the bed, window treatments and/or an area rug and accessorizing, cottage style does possess a certain country air. But expanding on traditional country choices, cottage style fabrics are a happy mix of fabrics: ginghams with silk, wool with velvet, plaids with patterned or striped linens. While they can also include classic floral motifs, cottage style bedding colors tend to be brighter and more intense.

The time to really solidify the cottage style look is when accessorizing by adding those details that matter. Use ceramic bowls to hold jewelry; spare change or small miscellaneous items. Select lamp shades with a floral pattern in pastel shades complete with ruffles or bows. Include candles or hurricane lamps for that real cottage style touch. Mirrors should be decorative with molding or metalwork accents. Cottage or country artifacts like enamelware jugs or porcelain wash basins are perfect cottage style accessories.

Visit again next week for the final part of this mini series where we’ll take a look at the cottage style dining room. Also if you feel so inclined, send me some interior design style suggestions for upcoming min series: I’d love to hear what styles you would like to explore further.

Inspired by European-designed furniture and New York City lofts, Modloft Furniture creates pieces that are big on style, but small on space.

Stationed in Miami, Florida, Modloft’s mandate is to offer pieces in the fashionably modern European style at affordable prices. Providing accent furnishings that feature sleek materials like stainless steel, frosted glass, and leatherette, the look of Modloft is chic and minimal at the same time. Modloft is also an environmentally friendly brand, harvesting their hardwood from sustainable Malaysian tree farms.

Cymax Stores is offering 20% off every piece in the Modloft collection, so you can get the modern look in your home without having to spend a fortune!

Modlift Furniture: Living Room

One piece that’s at the height of modern style and also a great space saver is a convertible couch. They are easily transformed from a sofa to a sleeping area with a few clicks into place. The Modloft Chrystie convertible sofa comes in three shades, so based on the colour that you like best, here are some decorating ideas for your living room:

Modloft Chrystie Modern Convertible Sofa in White

There isn’t a more dramatic, yet classic colour combination than black and white.

Match your white sofa with the Modloft Ann 123″ Wall Entertainment Unit, and to make sure the room isn’t too black and white, center off the space

with the Modloft Mott Low-Profile Coffee Table in Walnut.

Modloft Chrystie Modern Convertible Sofa in Black
Offset the bold black of the sofa with a bright white/steel entertainment center, like the Modloft Eldridge 59″ Entertainment Unit,

or even the sleek glass Modloft Essex 42″ TV Stand.

Tie everything together with the Modloft Park Low-Profile Coffee Table in White.

Modloft Chrystie Modern Convertible Sofa in Chocolate

This gorgeous shade of chocolate will look incredibly chic with the soft black sheen of the Modloft Fulton 78″ Wall Entertainment Center

The Modloft Walker Modern Coffee Table with Shelf completes your modern living room look.

Modlift Furniture: Dining Room
The centerpiece of the dining room is obviously the grand dining table. Here are some examples of Modloft’s bold tables, and the chairs that would match them best:

Modloft Howard Modern Glass Top Dining Table
Fresh, straight lined, and geometric, the Howard glass top table is sure to make a statement in your dining room. Pair it with the Modloft Howard Modern Dining Room Chair for a truly unique look – you can actually push these chairs together and make a bench.

Finish off your dining room with the Modloft Cleveland Modern Buffet Table – its severe lack of detail will not compete with the strong glass table and chairs.

Modloft Varick Modern Square Dining Table
Just like the name suggests, this table is truly a work of art. Chrome accents, softly grained hardwood, and a glass centerpiece make up a luxurious table with hints of modern flair.

The neutral look of the Modloft Forsyth Leatherette Modern Dining Chair won’t take away from the detailing in the table, and the similar dark shade of the Modloft Houston Curved Modern Buffet Table will fit the colour scheme.

Modloft Cliff Extendable Wood Dining Table
Another great space saving option is an extendable dining table. Keep it small when it’s just you or another individual dining, and when entertaining, you can extend the ends of the table to make more room. Its simple hardwood design with tiny chrome accents really showcase Modloft’s minimal look. Surround the table with low-detailed chairs, like the Modloft Rivington Modern Minimalist Dining Chair.

Then, you can complete the look with another piece with chrome accents, like the Modloft Bleeker Urban Modern Buffet Table.

Modloft Hudson 5 Piece Dining Set
If you’re in the market for a dining set, the simple, elegant look of the Hudson dining set will match almost any décor. It has also been constructed from rich, strong hardwood that guarantees a long lifespan for your table and chairs.

Modlift Furniture: Bedroom

Naturally, the most important piece for your bedroom is your bed! Modloft has a selection of innovative, fashion-forward platform beds that will instantly give your room a dramatic, modern look.

Modloft Bed from the Modloft Waverly collection.

For an extremely low-profile look, the Waverly platform bed delivers. Its dramatic deep wenge stain and slightly curved frame gives the bed a certain elegance.

Pair it with the matching Modloft Waverly Nightstand to give your bedroom an overall spectacular look!

Modloft Platform

Hopefully you’ve got the ceiling height to pull off this striking platform bed! The classic black and white upholstery and the tiny tufts in the headboard add a really dynamic look to your bedroom. The Modloft Monroe Dresser offsets the white in the headboard, as does the

Modloft Norfolk Minimalist Modern Mirror.

Modloft Platform Bed

A bit more neutral than the white Ludlow model, the warm brown model is inviting and cozy-looking. Try pairing it with the black, geometric Modloft Columbia Mobile Bookcase and then pop some white into the mix with the

Modloft Ludlow Nightstand in White.

Modloft Prince Recessed Platform Bed

The innovative design of the Prince platform bed actually lowers the mattress into the frame, making you as close to the ground as possible.

Contrast the soft white of the bed with a dark brown nightstand, like the Modloft Ludlow Nightstand in Wenge.

Finish off your bedroom with the Modloft Ludlow Dresser in Wenge in the same deep brown.

Create a modern masterpiece in your home with furnishings from Modloft! Amazing furniture pieces just think of the design you can create with Modloft!

Established in 1991 straight out of Oakland, California, Sitcom Furniture focuses on transitional, contemporary pieces that will never go out of style.

The very first piece from Sitcom was a unique, modern-style folding chair, and their company name was taken from the chair’s function. The chair was meant to be “sit” on, and it was “com”pact, therefore inventing the name Sitcom. Today, the Sitcom brand is known for its creative and up-to-date designs, and recently won the 2008 A.D.I. (Advanced Design and Innovation) award in the Major Collection category.
