Decorating With DownEast Home
If there’s one thing that I’m really not good at, it’s decorating my home. I need to see the finished picture of what something will look like, otherwise I buy random things and it just doesn’t flow. My sister is great at it and a lot of the decorating done in my home is because of her. She has that vision that I don’t have. Luckily for me, stores like DownEast Home exist.
DownEast Home has locations in Utah, Arizona and Idaho. They also have the DownEast Basics clothing line available in California, Colorado, Washington and Nevada. I headed out to one of the Utah locations of DownEast Home to see what they had to offer. If you aren’t familiar with the store, they offer brand name furniture and home decor for a fraction of what you would normally pay if you were to shop in store with that brand name. The displays when you walk in the door are eye popping.
My kitchen is one of those rooms that could stand a little bit of updating, mostly the kitchen table. I love the rustic country feel of this table. The aqua colored legs are a nice contrast color and I love the detail, right down to the dishes on the table. Everything that you see in the picture DownEast offers for sale.
The next area that caught my eye were some of the living areas. My living room is done in gray, yellow and white and some of these accents would be perfect. I’m really liking the bright yellow vases that you see in the top right hand corner.
Here is another living space that gives a fun, funky feel with orange. Normally, I would never think to decorate with orange, I’d just shy away from it. Looking at this room all put together though, it makes me feel a little differently about the color.
DownEast Home has a great selection of kids and baby furniture and decor as well. Wouldn’t this white bed be cute in a little girl’s room?
While in the store, I was looking for a crib. I want a white, modern crib for baby girl’s room. They had some fabulous sturdy cribs marked up over 50% off, but not in the finish I wanted. The nice thing about DownEast Home is that they are constantly getting new inventory in, so I’ll be checking in over the next couple of months to see if I can find a crib to go in her room.
To find a DownEast Home near you, visit their store locator. You can also like DownEast on Facebook for more information, contests and ideas.
They have some beautiful stuff. I especially love that dining set.

I love shopping for new and also used furniture. Down East has some great products and items. I do a lot of my online shopping at http://4-chairs.com/ which is Four Chairs Furniture.
Hmm, it’s rare that EVERYthing they use is for sale there. I love that they create the ‘vision’ for those of us that just don’t have it.

It’s actually really nice. I’m not allowed to mention name brands in my post but it’s definitely 50% or more off of the name brand prices if you were to compare in their store. I’m not sure if they just get great deals or extra stock from companies but they always have cute stuff that is pretty affordable.
I had no idea they sold furniture and home décor too! I have some of their clothes and love them!

I knew they had the clothing line but I didn’t know about the home decor. I’m excited to look at more of it. What I see here is really pretty!

Yeah, I wish the home decor line weren’t limited so much, I’d love to see them grow. It’s only available in a few states.
I have never heard of this store but it looks like a great place to shop for your home.

We have DownEast Basics (just clothing) here in Las Vegas but not the home store. Although I am yearning to stop in, that may be a blessing in disguise.
