McQueen's Furniture - a family affair

Furniture runs in the family! This is certainly true for the owners of this family-owned and operated store. With over 135 years of combined experience in the furniture business, the owners of McQueen's Furniture are clearly veterans. In addition to furniture, you'll also find accessories, bedding, fireplaces and appliances in any of McQueen's stores in Sudbury, North Bay and Espanola. Have a look at some of my favourites from the North Bay store:

This mirror rocks! It has

everything going for it:

the size, the shape and

the bling! And the mirror

frame is so slick - see 

below.

The frame consists of small, pebble-shaped 

mirrors that provide additional interest and

reflection. 

I like the shape and wooden texture

on these candleholders. Grouped in

three they make for an interesting,

decorative vignette.

Sturdy wooden bowls with a beautiful, clean

design.

As with the wooden candleholders above, 

your stoneware should also be displayed 

in groups of three or more for maximum 

impact. These pieces have a rustic appeal.

Dramatic, yet peaceful artwork.

I'm very fond of sculptural

lamps like these two...

...and how about this one?

It will reflect light both 

from the inside and the 

outside.

Try banquettes around the dinner table!

Combined with chairs, they look elegant 

and sleek.

Upholstered chairs are perfect for lingering dinner

parties. This set has a simple, yet sophisticated 

design. It was perhaps not the intention of the

showroom designer, but I actually think the two

upholstery options can be combined around the

same table. Especially if you want a fun, modern 

feel, and if the colours of the fabrics are repeated 

elsewhere in the room.

Avoid sharp corners with a round coffee table.

Consider one with a glass top - such as this 

one - if your space is tight and otherwise filled 

with heavier pieces. 

Lovers of black-and-white will probably find this 

dresser quite effective. They might also like the 

glass vase below.
