We are having to rent out our one bedroom flat while at move abroad and I'm desperate for advice on furnishings. We're trying to keep costs down and need to make purchases speedily, so we can't make-to-order anything and we are limited to buying things that are available within 2-3 weeks.
The flat is painted cream and has new light oak floors. We have a budget of about £2500 to furnish the living room and bedroom.
We picked out some ivory painted oak furniture but are having a last minute panic that it won't match the floor - the table tops are a slightly brighter side of oak. Maybe we should be going with all white furniture?
We're looking at furniture in the sales at the higher end - Cotswold Company, as well as M&S and Argos. Not all of it has to be hard wearing and it would be nice when we come back to use some of the nicer pieces in our next home.
We live in a nice and expensive area so we are trying to get furniture in the sales to reflect the higher rent. But we are struggling with choosing from all the options and at the same time limited by our budget. Are we overthinking? Please any advice!
