Hey there, lovely homeowners!

As the seasons change and we seek new ways to refresh our living spaces, one often overlooked
aspect of home design is the window treatments. These humble yet essential elements contribute
to your home’s aesthetic appeal and significantly enhance comfort and functionality.

Today, I want to explain why I only sell Hunter Douglas window treatments and why they are a
cut above the competition.

Craftsmanship and Quality:

When it comes to window treatments, craftsmanship and quality are non-negotiable. Hunter
Douglas has been a pioneer in the industry for decades, setting the standard for excellence. Their
commitment to quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship ensures that each window
treatment is not just a piece of décor but a long-term investment in your home’s beauty and
functionality.

A year in Review. Let’s begin in January.

January was somewhat quiet until the end of the month when I attended the Kitchen and Bath show in Las Vegas.  the flight was long and drawn out because of flight delays.  I was trying to get in early enough to attend an evening Soiree.  My flight was six hours delayed.  I was flying SWA with a connection in almost every city between Arkansas and Las Vegas.  But, arrived late that evening but Kitchen and Bath did not disappoint.  Especially, seeing so many of my designer friends and learning about new product technology, color, and design trends.

In the spirit of the season, we’re thrilled to share a tale of a remarkable transformation that turned a humble hay barn into a magnificent holiday haven brimming with warmth and festive cheer.

As the leaves turn brilliant shades of red and gold and a crisp chill fills the air, it’s that time of the year when our thoughts turn to Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is more than just a holiday; it’s a time to come together, express gratitude, and celebrate the warmth of family and friends. At the heart of this beautiful holiday is the notion of a warm and welcoming home where people gather to share in the joys of the season. This blog will explore the significance of a warm and inviting home in celebrating Thanksgiving.

The holiday season is just around the corner, and it’s the perfect time to get your house in order.
Decluttering and organizing your living space makes your home more welcoming and
comfortable for guests and reduces the stress that can come with holiday preparations. To help
you get started, here are seven steps to declutter and prepare your home for the upcoming
holidays.

Set Clear Goals:
Begin by setting clear goals for your decluttering project. Make a checklist of the areas you want
to tackle, such as the living room, kitchen, dining room, and guest bedrooms. Having a plan will
help you stay organized and motivated throughout the process.

Start Small:
Decluttering your entire home can be overwhelming, so starting small is best. Begin with one
room or even just one area within a room. Once you’ve completed a section, move on to the next.
This approach makes the process more manageable and less intimidating.

Declutter Room by Room:
Focus on one room at a time. Within each room, work through the following steps:

a. Clear the clutter: Go through your belongings and decide what to keep, donate, or discard. Be
ruthless about getting rid of items you no longer need or use.

b. Organize: Once you’ve decluttered, organize the remaining items. Storage solutions like
baskets, shelves, and containers can be used to keep things tidy.

c. Clean: Give the room a thorough cleaning, including dusting, vacuuming, and washing any
curtains or linens.

As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, it’s time to welcome the cozy and enchanting fall season into your home. With its warm hues, rustic charm, and a touch of nature’s elegance, Fall provides the perfect inspiration for decorating your living space. Whether you want to create a welcoming atmosphere for guests or enjoy the season’s magic alone, here are some creative fall decor ideas for your dining tables, buffets, fireplace, front door, and entry gate.

Wallpapers have the power to transform a space, adding personality and charm that paint alone cannot achieve. Thibaut is a beacon of creativity and quality among the many wallpaper options. They offer an array of designs for accent walls and encourage you to think beyond the conventional by considering the “5th wall” – the ceiling. In this blog, I’ll explore using Thibaut wallpaper on accent walls and ceilings to create breathtaking interiors.

1. Making a Statement with Accent Walls: Accent walls are an excellent way to inject character into a room without overwhelming the entire space. Thibaut’s wallpaper collection boasts an assortment of patterns, colors, and textures that cater to various design aesthetics. Whether aiming for a contemporary look with geometric patterns or a classic ambiance with floral motifs, Thibaut offers an extensive range to suit your preferences.
