Hot off the press in the furniture world this week. With the Spring Highpoint Market now 2 weeks away our inbox is chalk-a-block with new product previews. More sneak peeks that caught our eye this week (we are taking pre-orders; if you see something you must have Ask a Stylist to put you on the list) Stanley Furniture is debuting a new European cottage line that says relaxed living like [...]
Rattan. Seagrass. Wicker. If those words conjure up thoughts like this ... you are about to be completely reformatted! More than 40 years ago, Allan Palecek, son of a Kansas fame, began traveling the world seeking inspiration in a centuries-old tradition of basket-weaving from the indigenous peoples of Asia (Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines). Amazed by their use of quickly renewable materials he returned home to design [...]
Highpoint is the end all and be all for those in the furniture biz and we have to say the volume of our inbox has increased 4-fold in the last week as we count down to the April 17, 2015 kick off.

Hello April .... at long last. We're counting the minutes until we can head out doors - without the layers and for an extended period of time.

Nestled [...]

True or False: We don't just sell pretty new things? True - and we couldn't be more elated about that! To transform houses to homes you need pieces with stories and not every story need encompass a labour of love, though there is definitely some love in this one but of a different kind; a love of seeking out unique, exotic and true to form [...]
Pillows have been a hot topic around here this week- as has spring. Combine the two and what do you get? Hyancith's on a pillow of course! White goes with everything; purple qualifies as a jewel tone (hot for 2015) and these would absolutely breathe new life into a chair, a sofa, sectional and so forth.
