No matter how expensive or cheap something is, if it offends you visually, it would become visual clutter.

It is important to buy things you love. If you truly love something for its looks, you can get it repaired even if it is low quality and it breaks.

Then, I went to the local furniture store and found a cherry stained head board that matched my set for $75. Go to some auctions and get comfortable. Keep an open mind on what may work for you.
I got my bedroom set at an auction for 800.00. It was in a 7 bedroom in Milton, MA. This is what the auctioner said??? But anyway it is a heywood or something like that. I went to Bob's discount furniture and what I could get that I could afford was plywood. Jordans wanted 3,000 for a bedroom set. I do not finance furniture. They had great quality but not in my budget.
