Mexican Pine Furniture
What is Corona Furniture Anyway?
Corona furniture is this really awesome type of furniture that comes from Mexico. It’s not like boring normal furniture that everyone has. It’s special because it’s made from pine trees which makes it look really rustic and cool. Lots of people call it Mexican pine furniture because of where it comes from.
The wood is this really nice yellow-ish brown color that makes my room feel warm and cozy. My dad says the color is called “honey pine” but I just think it looks like pancakes with syrup on them!
Why Corona Furniture is Different and Special
The most coolest thing about Corona furniture is the black metal parts on it. All Corona pine furniture has these black metal handles and corner bits that make it look kinda old-fashioned but in a really cool way. My teacher says this is called “contrasting” because the black metal looks so different next to the light wood.
The wood is really thick and chunky too. My little brother tried to break my new desk by jumping on it (he’s so annoying!) but it didn’t even wobble! Dad says thats because Corona furniture is “solid” and not like the cheap stuff that falls apart.
Corona Furniture for Different Rooms
Bedroom Stuff
My bedroom has loads of Corona bedroom furniture now and it makes me feel like I have a grown-up room. I have a Corona wardrobe where I keep all my clothes and school uniform. It’s massive and has plenty of room for everything, even my secret stuff!
Next to my Corona bed, I have these cool Corona bedside tables where I put my water bottle and books for nighttime reading. The drawer is perfect for hiding my torch when I want to read under the covers after bedtime (don’t tell Mum!).
My sister has a Corona dressing table where she does her makeup and stuff. She’s a teenager so she thinks she’s sooooo grown up now!
Living Room Cool Stuff
In our living room, we got this amazing Corona TV unit where our big TV sits. It has loads of shelves for our game console and DVD’s. The best bit is the drawers where we can hide all the controllers and remotes when grandma comes over (she hates mess!).
We also have Corona coffee tables in the middle of the room. That’s where we put snacks when watching movies, and sometimes I do my homework there which makes Mum happy.
For all our books and photo frames, we have a big Corona bookcase. I get to have one shelf just for my stuff, and I put all my trophies and special rocks I’ve collected on it.
Dining Room and Kitchen Bits
Our kitchen looks so much cooler now with our Corona dining table. It’s where we eat dinner every night and play board games on the weekends. I like running my fingers over the wood because you can feel all the little bumps and grains.
My mum loves her Corona sideboard where she keeps all the fancy plates and glasses that we only use when important people come over. She also has this massive Mexican pine dresser that makes our kitchen look like something from a movie!
Different Colors You Can Get
Even though most Corona furniture is that yellowy-wood color, you can get it in other colors too! My cousins have Corona grey furniture in their house which looks really modern and fancy. You can also get painted Corona furniture in white which my friend has in her bedroom.
But I think the normal pine color is the best because you can see all the cool patterns in the wood. Each piece of furniture has different swirly bits and knots, so they’re all unique like snowflakes!
Why Corona Furniture is So Great
Here’s why I think Corona furniture is the best ever:
- It’s SUPER strong and doesn’t break easy (trust me, my brother has tested this loads of times!)
- It looks cool and not boring like other furniture
- It’s not plastic so it’s better for the planet (we learned about that in school)
- The drawers slide really smoothly and don’t get stuck
- It has a nice smell like forests and nature
I also love my Corona pine desk because it makes doing homework a bit less boring. The drawers are perfect for hiding all my pens and stuff when my room needs to look tidy.
Looking After Your Corona Furniture
My mum says we have to look after our Corona furniture properly so it stays nice. Here’s what we do:
- Wipe it with a damp cloth when it gets dusty
- Don’t put hot cups straight on the wood (use those circle things… coasters!)
- Don’t jump on it (my brother learned this the hard way)
- Sometimes dad puts special wax on it that makes it all shiny
Cool Corona Facts!
Did you know that “corona” actually means “crown” in Spanish? So when you have Corona furniture, it’s like having royal furniture fit for kings and queens! That’s why I pretend my room is a castle sometimes.
Also, Corona furniture isn’t actually named after the virus! The furniture came waaaaay before that and has been popular for ages and ages.
My Favorite Pieces
My absolute favorite piece is the Corona nest of tables because it’s like having 3 tables that fit inside each other like a puzzle! I use the smallest one for my special LEGO projects.
I also really like our Corona chest drawers because they’re perfect for all my clothes and treasures. The drawers are really deep so I can fit loads of stuff in them!
If you want to see all the different types of Corona furniture, you can look at Corona furniture UK where they have pictures of everything. Maybe you could show your parents and get some for your house too!
So that’s everything I know about Corona furniture! I think its the best furniture ever and when I grow up and have my own house, I’m definitely gonna fill it with Corona furniture!
