Hudson's Furniture Donates Thousands to Children's Miracle Network

Last March, Hudson's Furniture Store hosted their Customer Appreciation Night. At the event they announced they would take a portion of their proceeds and donate them to the Children's Miracle Network. The event turned out to be a huge success as they were able to give $2,000 back to the community. This money is going to help thousands of children in the Central Florida area. 

“Having children of my own, the work of this foundation really hits close to home. Giving back to the community is very important to us at Hudson’s, and we seize any opportunity we come across to help out,” said President Joshua Hudson.


The Children’s Miracle Network raises money for 170 different children’s hospitals across North America. The foundation has raised more than $4 billion total to support research and training, purchase equipment, and pay for uncompensated care for children. Hudson's furniture is proud to be able to donate to the Children's Miracle Network, and give back to the children of Central Florida. 

Painting Ideas: Simple ways to add your personal touch on your home

There are many different ways to customize your home to make it adhere to your style. One of the cheapest and easiest ways to do this is by painting! A quick and easy paint job can turn the style of your home from drab to fab in no time.

1.  Add texture to your wall. Transforming your plain walls with a sophisticated finish is a simple way to style to your room. Painting over crinkled tissue paper is a simple way to do this. Add a layer of paint on the wall, apply the crinkled tissue paper, and then finish it off with another layer of paint. 

2. To create a classic, elegant background, paint parchment stripes on your wall. First mark the stripes on your wall with a water color pencil. Then, simply put a small piece of tape on the stripes to keep it all straight. Last, mix your paint with one part water, and one part glaze in separate containers to get two separate colors. Now you’re ready to paint your stripes!

3. Transform a plain accent wall with a distressed paint job. Using simple household items, this is an easy way to create an antique finish on your walls. Paint your walls with a toilet brush to create rough streaks to give your walls a distressed look.

4. Spice up your furniture with an antique look. By adding your favorite stencil to your furniture pieces, you can easily get an antique feel to your room.  First cover your furniture with an oil-based primer. Once it dries, paint your favorite stencil on with a satin finished paint and blot with a towel.

Once your new style is adapted by your painting technique, complete the remodel with furniture to match. Check out all of our different styles of furniture at http://hudsonsfurniture.com/.

Smart Design Ideas for Small Spaces

Making the most out of small spaces is easy with these simple design ideas. All it takes is a little creativity to optimize your living space.

1.  For tight kitchen spaces, consider open shelves instead of cabinets. This will give you an open feel to your kitchen, as well as provide you with plenty of organization space.

2.  To create a work space in a small bedroom, add a small nook with a desk. Add shelves above the desk to create more storage and to be sure not to let any space go to waste.

3.  Narrow wall shelves are the perfect solution to a crammed bathroom! Invest in small baskets and containers to store extra towels and bathroom accessories.

4.   Use light colors for furniture and walls. Keeping the major color pallet in the room light will make your room appear bigger. Add darker and brighter colors as accents, such as pillows or wall decorations, to make your room look less bland.

5. Use a curtain divider to turn two spaces into one, or to add more privacy.

6. Utilize any and all space you can! Use the extra space underneath your stairs for added storage.

7. To make your walls appear larger, use floor to ceiling length window treatments. This is perfect to make your living room appear more spacious.

8. Add mirrors to walls and closet doors. The reflection will make your room appear bigger and is a quick and easy way to visually expand your space.

Hudson’s Furniture awarded Florida’s “Distinguished Retailer of the Year”

We are proud to announce that our very own President Josh Hudson and Vice President Adam Hudson have been awarded “Distinguished Retailer of the Year" by the Florida Home Furnishings Representatives Association for their outstanding work dedicated to the furniture industry!


“My father's business philosophy was to separate Hudson's Furniture from other furniture retailers by
focusing on selling quality brand name furniture and following it up with the highest standards of
customer service,” said Adam Hudson. “Josh and I continue to operate the business under that same principle. The key is to put the customers first, and that’s what we try to do.” The brothers are honored to receive this award, just as their father, Fred Hudson, did in 2000.

After being given control of the operation at a very young age, Joshua and Adam have maintained
Hudson’s reputation as the Southeast’s premier choice for fine furniture. During the ongoing recession, they have managed to produce some of the best numbers that Hudson’s Furniture has ever seen.

According to the Florida Home Furnishings Representatives Association, the Hudson’s possess the
unique qualities that the award represents—“A retailer that has distinguished itself by contributing to the furniture industry through creative skills, management expertise, hard work and loyalty in a manner that has enhanced or influenced the furniture industry in the state of Florida.”

Congrats Adam & Josh!
