Greetings!
 
Peggy GillisGreetings and apologies for a slightly late newsletter.  November turned out to be an exceptionally busy month for Rousseau's. The weirdly mild, but not unwelcome weather has had me lulled into a false sense of security with regard to preparations for the holidays.  It really is less than a month 'til "the big holiday!"

I hope that the visual presentation of our recent activities will inspire and help you in preparing for the holiday season.
There is still time to pop in to the store to pick up a last minute chair, lamp or accessory (all at a 20% savings) to help make your home comfortable and welcoming for family and guests for the upcoming holidays.
 
I look forward to seeing you.

The grand opening of the second phase of the New Amherst development in Cobourg was a spectacular event.  Rousseau's was responsible for decorating the three model homes.  The turnout was tremendous on a most beautiful day.  Click on the house above for a photographic compilation of the day's events.

in-store eventOur first in a series of in-store seminars was a great success.  Our store was filled with 50 plus attendees who were given three presentations in different areas by two designers for each subject.  We received excellent feedback from the attendees and we will continue with these events in the New Year.
