The Indian Summers in Kansas City are a-mazing! The cool nights and warm days allow us to linger on the edge of autumn a little longer than our northern neighbors. We wear shorts and sandals well into October, living in denial that it is officially autumn. Until this morning, that is. If being greeted by frost on my car wasn’t a smack in the face, the frigid breeze definitely was!
It IS officially autumn and I am officially cold! If you have been dragging your feet as we head into colder weather, now is the perfect time to start winterizing your home. The interior design experts at Design Connection, Inc. have a few ideas to help you transform your home into a cozy winter retreat before the first snow fall. The temperature is dropping, so keep reading!
Oh we are just loving the spring-like days that we’ve had in Kansas City lately but the sad truth is that it’s really fall and Thanksgiving is sneaking up on us very quickly it seems. Of course there is still time to make sure your home looks fabulous in time for any guests you are expecting! If you missed it we had a fun post on Facebook recently where we talked about the two ways you can do color in a room. You still have time to paint a wall to make a dramatic impact or invest in recovering your dining chairs with a beautiful fabric or temporary slipcover. I have a friend with an old dining room table that just couldn’t hold all of her guests, so we are getting her set up with a gorgeous new table and chairs that will look stunning just in time for Thanksgiving! Even if you don’t have time for new furniture this year, keep in mind that I have access to brands and styles of furniture that you won’t find at any of the big retail stores. If you’re looking for furniture that isn’t run of the mill and is unique but comparable in price to what you’ll find in the stores, contact me. I can definitely help before Christmas arrives!
Brrrrrrr. That cold front is moving through Kansas City which means winter isn’t far around the corner. With fuzzy slippers, a hot beverage and warm thoughts on my mind I decided that there’s no better time than the present to share some fireplace ideas that you can cozy up to. Many of us forget that the fireplace can often count as a piece of furniture in a room- oftentimes it is the central focus. With that thought in mind, why not play it up and make it work with your room’s decor and your design tastes? An upgraded fireplace is a great investment not only from a design perspective but with new energy efficient models the impact on your pocketbook could have you wondering why you didn’t make the change years ago. Whether you add an insert to a traditional wood burning fireplace, replace your mantel and surround or install a brand new model, there are many options that will suit every conceivable need. Read on dear ones, and get ready to get fired up about fireplaces!
