Indoor Plants add Natural color

Indoor plants add natural color to a room.

Living plants add freshness and natural color to a room, and there are many options that require very little care. If you don’t have a green thumb, you can select from a wide variety of artificial plants that are hard to distinguish from real ones. 

Indoor plants range from large, lush trees to the smallest of African violets, and everything in between. Some of the most popular indoor plants include tropical orchids, cactuses, succulents, banana trees, dracaena plants, Philodendrons, ivy, and many varieties of ferns, ficus trees, and palms. 

Place indoor plants on the floor, on a table, on a bench, on shelves -- or you can even hang them on the wall! 

Have fun with the containers you use, too! Just like plants themselves, containers come in many shapes, sizes, colors and glazes to complement any décor. And you can buy plant stands in a variety of styles that display plants at almost any height in your rooms. 

If you opt for live plants, talk to your nursery about the light needs of various plants, and find out how quickly each plant will grow. Learn which plants are easy to grow, and how much water and maintenance each plant needs.

Keep in mind that plants don’t just come in shades of green. You can select plants with striking hues of red, orange, pink and yellow! Plus some indoor plants feature brilliant flowers in a variety of hues. 

Make your home feel natural and green by adding indoor plants to your decorating plan.

What to Consider when Selecting Window Treatments
for Your Kitchen

As with all rooms, light control is essential in the kitchen -- and so is ventilation. Look for window treatments that allow cooling breezes to enter while providing varying degrees of privacy.

We carry Hunter Douglas window treatments, which offer a wide selection of blinds, shades and shutters for your kitchen. Popular product lines include:

Rose Quartz and Serenity

The Pantone Color Institute has selected Rose Quartz and Serenity as their colors of the year for interiors. Try using these calming shades of pink and blue in your interior plan. These soft shades of calm blue and serene pink make us feel more secure and at peace. When used in home décor, they add to our sense of well-being, helping take away the daily stresses of life in our own home environments. Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director, Pantone Color Institute®, says “Joined together, Rose Quartz and Serenity demonstrate an inherent balance between a warmer embracing rose tone and the cooler tranquil blue, reflecting connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace.” Rose Quartz is “a persuasive yet gentle tone that conveys compassion and sense of composure, while Serenity is weightless and airy, like the expanse of the blue sky above us, bringing feelings of respite and relaxation even in turbulent times.” Whether you use each color alone or use them together in your home environment, this year think Rose Quartz and Serenity for upholstery and drapery fabrics, rugs and carpeting, paint, tile and backsplashes, bed and table linens, and accessories. Soften your home environment this year by decorating in Rose Quartz and Serenity.  STORE HOURS Monday through Friday  10am-4pm We are happy to assist you at any other time, including evenings and weekends...
