In June Rousseau's is celebrating it's 80th Anniversary and we would like to invite you to join us to honour this landmark year.  In appreciation of all the years that our loyal customers have supported us, and as a welcome to our future customers, we will be offering up to 30% off on custom orders of sofas, bedrooms, dining rooms and  occasional furniture throughout the month of June.

Join us for a fun weekend on Saturday, June 13th, and Sunday, June14th for a balloon-popping extravaganza . Pop a balloon and win additional discounts on already well priced in-stock merchandise and many prizes.  Proceeds from the balloon purchases will be donated to one of our favourite charities, the future Abilities Centre, here in Whitby. Light refreshments will be served.
 
Hope you can make it!

(Each month we make you aware of trends and directions in the furniture and interior design industry)
 
High Point Highlights and Trends 
 
Spindle BedSusan Carducci and I have returned home from our visit to High Point, North Carolina.  Once again it was a fantastic opportunity to see what is available in the market and to assess trends and directions.  It allows us to understand how the industry is changing and the best ways to advise our clients.  We look at furniture, lighting, rugs, accessories, etc. of all quality levels.  The good, the bad and the ugly!  Our job is to sort through all of the possibilities and bring the best items back to our store and our customers!  We searched for great products at special pricing.  Click on the picture to see more images from High Point and watch the video in the "Our Videos" section..
 
Come in and talk to us about trends, styles and directions.

OUTDOOR DESIGN - Some Tips on Container Planting
 Container Gardening
At last, the sun is shining longer and thoughts go to beautifying our outdoor living spaces. There are many elements to consider when bringing the indoors out in order to expand our lifestyles to porches, patios, decks and gardens. Container plants are a simple and inexpensive way to bring that WOW factor into your outdoor space. Container plants can be used to define a walkway or particular area in the garden, fill holes in the garden when spring flowering perennials have died down, grow vegetables or provide privacy.
 
Here are some simple steps to consider when designing Outdoor Container Plants. CLICK HERE.
