That's my thinking too, when we moved it was from a fully furnished house to one with absolutely nothing so we got a lot of things from ebay and freecycle and hand-me-downs from family, so we couldn't be picky! Can't afford to replace anything yet so when we have a bit more cash we'll probably replace furniture one item at a time until it's all the same. Even so, I like such a wide variety of styles and colours and things that if I saw something that I loved, I'd have to have it whether it matched anything else or not, so I'll probably never manage to have a lovely co-ordinated room!
