Lawrence Home Show
The Lawrence Home Show will again be in the Crown Toyota showroom on February 19 - 21.  The dealership empties out the cars and we - and others - move in with our displays.  Each year we create something new that has never been in our show room and showcase it at the Home Show.  Then we move the display into its new home in our showroom. 
 
This year we are featuring special heading styles and current 2016 colors.  The pleat styles butterfly pleat is a pretty pleat with additional fabric folded over the usual style pleat.  The look is softer and fuller.  This pleat looks stylish in a stationary side panel or on a decorative traverse rod.  Add a band of coral trim and you have a fresh spring look. 
 
Many people don't realize we also reupholster furniture so we will showcase a chair we have reupholstered.  If you could see inside the chair with an x-ray machine you could see that we have stripped all the fabric and padding off, checked/tied the springs, checked/re-glued the frame, built the padding back up and then added the new fabric.  It is a new chair when it is done. 
 
We have also added a twist to the ever popular and simple grommet style. tailored pleat with grommets   We added a flat, tailored pleat in-between each grommet that softens the look.  This pleated grommet heading works well as a stationary panel. Add a decorative iron rod to coordinate with your room hardware.
 
You will see that our displayed colors have a gray/sand/neutral theme.  We are finding that many customers are wanting and liking this new look and actually we have a lot of samples with those colors. Of course we have a lot of samples in many colors if the grays do not suit your color palette.
 
Call us for free tickets to the Home Show.  We will have specials that you can only get by visiting our booth at the Home Show.  We will offer a discount coupon on window treatment fabric or a discount on installation with an order of blinds, shades, or shutters.
 
Come by and say HI!  
 
Frequently Asked Questions
      
How high should the rod be?  
  • My answer is that depends - on the size and scale of your room, the size of your rod, the height of the ceiling......   What we don't do anymore is mount the rod just above the frame.  Now that many homes have higher ceilings, the proportion is just not correct. 
Did You Know.. 
  • We make custom window treatments.  So that means we can make your window treatment any size, any height. We can put the rod wherever the rod is proportionally correct and make the window treatment to fit wherever the rod needs to be mounted.

Monthly Tips
  • Coordinate the color of your decorative rods with the ceiling fan, cabinet hardware, or fireplace trim colors.
  • Coordinate the style of your rod finial with other designs in your room.
