I did not know this was a thing. I only tried selling from my inventory like you can do with materials. I don't think there should be a furniture limit especially with all of the event items in this game.
As stated previously, they just announced that they would be increasing the furniture limit, but to how high is still unknown.

This is stupid. They want us to spend time in the game to earn items... and then end up limiting the amount you can have. If the game wasn't so darn cute and I hadn't spent so much time grinding to get where I am, I would quit right now. Nintendo just doesn't seem to use thier brains sometimes...
