I would totally furnish it with Craigslist furniture!! Look at this stuff I found:
What a cute couch!! Sage, only 1 year old, and $275. Baaaargain!
This adorable, natural maple-colored dining room table with 4 chairs for $75 total.
When I bought my chairs for my dining room table, I paid $75 for ONE chair.
2 side tables and a matching coffee table for $100 total. You can’t beat that!
Here’s a little TV cabinet where you can put DVDs inside. Mahogany! A darker stain would match those coffee tables nicely. You could even use this as a little buffet for storing wine, games, etc. inside. Imagine some cute clearance vases on top for decor. Viola! Oh, yea… $35!
Ivory & green, criss-crossed loveseat to match the sofa. $50
Tada! Downstairs furnished for $535.
