What about Crate and Barrel outlet? I know there is only one in Alexendriia, VA. I guess you have to keep calling to ask otherwise you can go out there for nothing.

Same. It was a good reminder why most peoples’ houses are really ugly. I would only recommend Greenfront if you are bringing an interior designer with you.

Their rug selection was nice, but I would not recommend trekking down there for furniture.

What is the relatively quality of Room & Board and Mitchell Gold? For Greenfront, do they have a large selection in NOVA? (Heading to NC may be a bit more than we can handle for this!)

I'd love it if someone could come to our new house, see the style and the rooms for which we need furniture, and help us with selections. I imagine, though, that an independent designer/decorator may be out of reach for us.


Try Redbird Redesign.

Decorator will do that and will probably suggest custom everything.

Not necessarily - I pay someone $90 and hour to pick out stuff for me and she recommends things in my price range.


Can you link her website?

If an independent designer is out of reach, then so too is Mitchell Gold. $50k is a ton of money. Go read the Money forum and College forum to learn about DCUM regrets.

We have a transitional house and have a lot from Mitchell Golf and Greenfront. Crate & Barrel is a good bet too.

Ew no, their quality is terrible. OP, stay away from Pottery Barn/West Elm, their prices reflect their marketing costs, not the quality of their furniture.
