If You’re Looking for Funky Colorful Furniture, You’ve Landed Here for a Reason
You’ve just saved time. Why? Because here at Funkthishouse, I’m on the hunt for wild and funky items to feature, so you don’t have to run around the internet like a chicken wearing tap shoes.
It’s not an exaggeration to say I spend many hours scouring the internet to find the funkiest items with pop and punch. The ones that trigger an initial ‘holy cow’ response find their way here or are shared socially. So, follow up and check out some of Lisa’s work below.
Funky Has a Wide Range
Funky carries a different meaning for everyone. If your definition of funky means bright colors with an animated feel, you’ll relate to these suggestions. Easily mix these pieces with other themes. One of the popular themed concepts is Nightmare Before Christmas Decor, and these funky custom furniture pieces featured here would fit nicely.
The bright colors make all pieces suitable for a room where a punch of interest is needed for a full-on themed-out space where artsy-wild-fun leads the way.
How many of us have been at a loss, trying to decide how we can make our child’s room unique? It’s sometimes difficult to be brave with color, even when we want to. However, deciding upon a few vital funky pieces makes decorating that space more straightforward. Just choose one piece to get started, take the colors from that piece, and use them as the steering wheel for the rest of the room.

Are you mixing Patterns? Give it to me, Quick & Simple!
The biggest thing to remember is ‘scale’ and limit the number of different designs in a room to three to five if you mix patterns.
The general rule is to mix patterns, but be sure the designs are not in the same size family. For example, a larger printed pillow can be combined with a smaller printed pillow within the same color base for the room. However, break it up with a solid-colored pillow if the patterns are too close together. Watch the Featured Video: A quick overview of mixing patterns by Emily Henderson (it’s brief and helpful).

How fun! Love the colors, love the patterns, love the funk of the furniture! The video is excellent and really demonstrates well how to mix patterns.
Susan, thanks for stopping by – Isn’t it though, love her work! What a terrific special gift idea for someone special too
Oh, wow! The featured tables are gorgeous! I’m not even sure which I like best. That round table & chairs would be the perfect addition to a game room. It would make a great card table as well as a very impressive piece(s) of furniture.
Cynthia, thanks for stopping by – totally agree, and I especially love those dressers – so much decorating fun could be had with this much color
What fun it can be to decorate with bright colors for a cute and funky look, especially in a kid’s room. When my children were small, I took two small 4-drawer dressers I’d found used through ‘thrifting/garage sales’ and painted one blue with green drawers and blue knobs and the other the same way in yellow and orange – one for the son’s room and one for the daughter’s room. And I didn’t even know at the time that I was creating a ‘funky’ look. LOL.
Pat, thanks as well for stopping by – those furniture pieces must have been really cute, and what a terrific memory too – decorating with color can be a little intimidating, but when done correctly, it can certainly create a one-of-a-kind space can’t it? Yep you were ahead of your time 🙂 – When I was a young girl, my mother bought real wood doll furniture for me and hand painted it – I had a complete doll house (stove, fridge, cradles all done with the love of my mother’s hands) – it was painted purple, orange and other colors too – I used to play ‘house’ in there with my dolls ALL the time 🙂 – Mom also hand painted my bedroom furniture, purple, pink and white – it’s no wonder I love color today! Although I’m guilty of being a little traditional in my decorating style sometimes – our master bedroom is getting an over haul soon, so I’m giving thought to the colorful approach I want to take
This type of funky furniture is all the rage where I live. I’m more traditional, but for a whimsical piece it would be great.
Heather thanks for stopping by as well 🙂 – have to agree, even adding one whimsical piece can add fun to a space
I love those bright colors
Brenda thanks for the visit here. The colors would certainly cheer up a space.
I always thought those funky colored furniture do well in a child’s room.
Sandy, thanks for stopping by; couldn’t agree more, or really fun playroom
Wow, Barbara, that’s some seriously awesome painted furniture! Thanks for sharing!
Hey Margaret! thanks for the visit – it sure is isn’t it
What a fun idea — sounds like something my artistic daughter in law would love to create! Fun fun!
Hi Joan, thanks for stopping by, an artist in the family, yeah!
