Part of our Rug Buyer and Associate Rug Buyer’s jobs are globetrotting to India. How cool is that? It’s there where some of our most beautifully designed rugs are handmade, and Kim and Lily get to see it all in person (plus experience some pretty cool things along the way). The process – which Kim and Lily (and us included!) have a great appreciation for – is nothing short of impressive.

It’s amazing that a furniture style of the 1800s could be so relevant to today… what goes around comes around is true in all instances. Arts and Crafts style is all about tradition and celebrating the work of handcrafted pieces. Shades of wood, straight lines and art glass characterize the look and feel of this ever-popular decorating style. And let’s not forget a lack of excessive decoration. Simplicity is this look’s main mission in life which is great for such a fast-paced world. Designing an Arts and Crafts-style space is easier than you may think. Just keep “simple yet elegant” in mind and it’s mission accomplished.

There are two metallics you can’t go wrong with: gold and silver. We like to think of them as the fraternal twins of decorating. If you want shimmer and shine, either of them will work but each evokes its own distinct character. What better time to highlight these valuable favorites than the final day of tax season?
Silver may make you think of a dime, a medal or even a wedding ring. But when it comes to decorating, this one’s got elegance down to a T. Infuse touches of silver into your home for a little glamour and sophistication. This classic metallic is sure to impress, whether in paint or a decorative pillow.
And gold? Well, it’s worth its own weight. The Egyptians believed gold to be divine and powerful and we must say, we agree. If you’re looking for pizzazz look no further than this bold metallic. Gilded pieces will give your room the grand ambience you’ve been looking for with a touch of sass. No matter your choice, either is sure to be a wise one.

Today’s decorating endeavors are all about the mix. Mixing patterns, mixing colors, mixing styles, mixing function. And since we’re all about mixing things up around here, we’ve given the farmhouse style a modern touch. By uniting rustic pieces with straight-lined furniture and a handcrafted rug, you’ve got a balance between country chic and modern sleek. Uniting wood and metal is key. But it’s not always what’s on the surface that counts. You can also choose pieces that have a vintage look with modern practicality to achieve this look too. Take inspiration from our eclectic mix to pull together your own modern farmhouse look.
