Loving Linen...



Whether slipcovered on a sofa or in gorgeous window treatments such as the ones below, pure linen offers natural comfort, durability and elegance to any room in your home. The versatility of the natural look that linen provides is unparalleled. Keep it casual with cottons or dress it up with velvet to bring luxe to your life. I know, I know: linen is not a perfect fabric. It wrinkles easily. But isn't that part of the charm? Take a look at these wonderful ways to add linen to your world.

Private Label Candles - Coming Soon!

Okay, really, how frustrating is it to spend a ton of money on a candle only to get it home, light it and have it have no scent? It drives me crazy. So I decided to do something about it. I've been working with a scentologist and have found a great company designing my own scents for the Window Scene. It was like I was on an underground search for the secret to finding a candle that actually smelled like something once lit! So I decided to call them Black Market Candles. They are soy-based, clean burning, and have a super long burn time with a great price in a pretty container. Say good bye to the big candle factory candles that don't last and are super expensive. Say hello to Black Market Candles. Coming soon! We will have a little contest to see what scent would be your favorite! I will submit a list soon and whichever scent receives the most votes will be the winner and become a Black Market signature scent.

The Testy Tastemaker

I really love this article. It hits the nail on the head. It is what (not all the time, but sometimes) we go through as decorators.

New England "Living" Show House

We are pleased to announce that we have been invited to be one of the world class designers of the 2011 New England "Living" Show House!

Mini-Trends

Ikat... Even though it's been in vogue before, Ikat keeps resurfacing in the fashion industry. I think it has had its run again, but in small doses it still makes a nice statement.

Glass Lamps.... Are virtually timeless. They will work in a Retro, Traditional or Modern setting. A nice blown glass lamp always a great accent in any room.

Modern Floral.... Designers love this mini-trend. It's flower power at its finest! It works just fine on a traditional chair as well as on any contemporary piece. I love to throw it into a space for a little flair!

Chain Link..... You have to love this one! All though it hasn't caught on just yet, it will and it will be a fabulous additon to accent most decors.

Letters..... Okay, I love it! On bags, pillows, art, you name it. Monograms, words on walls. It just says COOL in your design plan.
It makes you stop and look, and isn't that what we are looking for?

So here are a few design mini-trends for you to use in your home. Need help trying to figure out which one? Give us a call or send us an email. I'm sure we can help!

New Color Palette! Yellow and Gray!

Okay, all you "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" fans: Tom Filicia, the interior decorater from that show, has now embarked on a new career as a textile designer for Kravet.
Thom Filicia's new fabric collection for Kravet introduces a style that is "fresh, modern and accessible." He is known for his thoughtfully personalized interiors, which feature richly layered textures and colors for a lived-in yet highly sophisticated look.
