I err on thinking naffola..hate co-ordinated rooms look

but have a lovely sideboard acquired through ebay and now looking for coffee table and the one I love on ebay looks like it will match the sideboard

they will be relatively close to each other in the room

am worried I may hate the naffy matchiness of them although they aren't actually matching

i am prob being stupid tho

I think that it should either match or obviously not iyswim.

If it looks like your trying to match but they don't match then thats naff.

Only my opinion, your home you do whatever you like even if it is naff Grin

I quite envy people whose house looks matched, or co-ordinated might be a better phrase.
My whole house needs decorating and none of the furniture matches except the sofa and a chair. Would be alright if the overall effect was 'fabulously bohemian' but it doesn't, it looks like a hovel.
If you love it, buy it, would be my advice.

Doesn't? I meant isn't.
I do grammar real, honest.
