Greetings!
Thank you so much for making 2009 a success for New Leaf! We are so aware that you are our greatest asset. Whether you bought or sold at New Leaf in 2009, we couldn't have made it without you.
Tax Season + Low Inventory = $$$ for You!
It's tax season and that means people are buying!
You may have what they want.
New Leaf's growth and excellent December left us low on large inventory. We are looking for Sofas, loveseats, bedroom suits, living room suits and many other large pieces.
The advantage to you when we're low on inventory is quicker sales and no competition.
If you haven't consigned with us before, this is a great time to start. Simply fill out the "quick consign" form on our website or stop by the store with pictures of your large items.
Small items can simply be dropped off anytime if they are in saleable condition.
See you in the store!

Modern Home Decorating on a Budget
By Kathy Wilson
Modern home decorating is often thought of as a design style that's cold and impersonal, but if your taste leans towards contemporary you can have a warm home full of modern style! Here are some modern decorating ideas for any budget!
Modern Home Decorating Guidelines
*Clean away all your clutter and unnecessary furniture. When trying to create a modern look of simplicity, its easiest to start with a clean slate.
*Keep or buy furniture that has simple, linear lines.
*Take a photo of your room, and look at it through a cameras eyes. You may never notice that cluttered table top or that you have too many chairs in a room until you see it through the objective lens of a camera. This is a great tool decorators use to "See" a room.
*Use simple color schemes for your modern home decorating. White or neutral walls work well for decorators new to the modern style. Add color with art and modern accessories.
*Make every item in your room count. Instead of layering the room in objects and collections, use the sculptural or colorful quality of even everyday objects to make a statement.
*When adding artwork and accessories, less is more. Use one larger piece rather than several smaller pieces of art. Don't feel the need to fill every space, empty space gives the eye rest. Use colorful but simple objects to add personality to a room, and repeat them for effect.
Modern Home Decorating Ideas
*Frame graphic style labels as artwork.
*Use simple objects such as candles, bud vases or small potted plants and use 5 to 7 of them in a line on a table top or mantel.
*Frame a large piece of colorful fabric with a contemporary pattern as a focal piece of artwork.
*Plant grass seed in simple metal containers for a modern look that brings life into the room.
*Use gloss finish paint to update tables and chairs- black is always a great modern option and balances white walls and bright colors in artwork. "Sleek" is the keyword of furniture makeovers for modern home decorating.
*Take down all window coverings except basic blinds or curtain panels, and try to have them match the color of the wall. Keep it simple.
Keep in mind that with modern home decorating less is more. Use these decorating ideas to help you achieve a simple, stress free style for any room of your home!
