Musical Furniture

Ever since I was a kid I loved to play "Musical Furniture". I guess I have been an Interior Designer at heart since then. I just cannot leave furniture in the same place very long. It's not that furniture looks bad the way it is in a current arrangement. I genuinely enjoy mixing up configurations, trying new things and seeing how a space can look in multiple ways.

When I move furniture pieces either professionally with my business, Twin Gate Designs, or in my own home, I never consider how hard it is to move. The king size bed, couch, dining room table, computer desk or oversized armoire are all possibilities - and sometimes all at once. You may be thinking that is because I have movers at my beckon call. That is true. I do. But, that's not why I am so obsessed with my favorite game of musical furniture.

I know how easy it is to move heavy furniture. I use FURNITURE SLIDERS. Also called Magic Sliders, Mighty Movers etc. Look how easy it can be:

They come in a package as simple as this:

There are sliders for soft surfaces (carpeting) like you see pictured above and newer styles with felt bottoms for hard surfaces (hardwoods, tile). I like to have multiple sets of each so I can put them under all the large furniture pieces in a room at once and tweak the placement until I'm happy.



LET THE MUSICAL FURNITURE IN YOUR SPACE BEGIN!

This post is dedicated to all the husbands out there helping their wives move furniture. Now the wives can move the furniture without you and you can go back to watching TV - unless she's moving it!
