Gemstone customized furniture

[aQuaM]

I have been stockpiling those ores for a while now. The problem is they take a lot of space in my closet and I do not know what to use them on. I was wondering if you guys could post pics of your gemstonefurniture to help me decide what to use my own gems on.

Sorry, don't have access to my 3DS now; if you Google your query, you'll find tons of themes & random items that can be ORED. [yes, new word] From the Modern set to the Piggy Bank, different ores will give off a particular sheen/crystallization color!

Small tip: when you've acquired the Museum Store, purchase the available 4x Exhibit Rooms & instead, use them for storage!

I customized a few pieces and didn't like it so sold all my ore. I only save gold for the gold furniture to help my friend complete a set and sell the duplicates she doesn't need.

I don't have pics, sorry but as Ben said you can google it and find plenty of pics

I had Cyrus redo my super toilet in gold. It looks like a shiny gold toilet and is now my favorite piece of furniture.

I'm on my phone and can't upload right now, but I I second using the museum exhibits as storage, they're really useful.

Look for some photos online, people seem to really love or hate the gem ore effect. Personally, I hated it, so I sell all the gems. The gold and silver I do use -- I like silver furniture and while I don't do anything with the gold my friends do.

The only thing I've customized with the gems is using a purple one on my Piggy Bank... But other than that I don't really use them or collect them, because most furniture customized with it looks kind of tacky.

The only series I have bejeweled is the Cabana series, because the gold on it doesn't have that unnatural shine to it. The sleek series is the only other one that I would customize with the colored ore, but I like the looks of the monochrome tone more.

Eh, I quite like customising with the ore and then giving it away to villagers or putting it up for sale at Re-Tail.

Gem stone customizations look awful.

That looks cool! I have a polka dot couch customized with sapphires and it is a much deeper blue (the same color as Jeremiah in your sig)

The gem customizations might be a little gaudy, but I'm open-minded about using them. Sometimes I like to go with extravagant, out-of-the-ordinary themes/furniture (that I often see others criticize for being unrealistic ) because I see AC as a fun escape where I can go wild with decorating, not a complete imitation of what would be realistic in real life. I was planning on making a room with a mix of gem-customized furniture and stained glass windows and stained glass lamps; I think the brightness and variety of color in a room like that could be really pretty if done right. I also love bobthecat's use of sapphire-customized furniture in the aquarium room. The sapphire customized furniture is probably my favorite.

Thanks
I've seen polka dot furniture customized before and it looks great!

Here's my house, the 2 couches in the back are polka dot couches, one is customized with a sapphire and the other with an amethyst. And the lovely dresser (I think?) on the left is customized with a ruby. The chair behind my character is a gold chair, made from 3 gold ore.

I have a polka-dot couch that I customized with emerald. I'm not sure I'd do a whole room of gem furniture (although that aquarium room looks amazing!), but it's fun to do a few.

I'm working on getting the gold series and who knows? Maybe I'll add a gem room later down the road. Like Twisk said, it's fun to have unusual decorating choices for the houses.

You can customize the lovely series with ruby! The finishing is nice, I'd recommend it.
