For those that like to entertain, the dining room is an important part of a home. It's where you possibly host your family holiday meals, celebrate birthdays, or entertain out-of-town guests. It's a place where conversations are shared over a glass of red wine and a big bowl of pasta. 

There are a ton of things that demand our time and attention day in and day out. Jobs, the daily grind of household chores, taking care of your family, making sure the kids' homework is done, getting the kids to soccer practice or dance lessons, paying bills. It's a vicious cycle that can leave you feeling stressed and exhausted at the end of the day.

Selecting the right bedding is essential for creating a dynamic and comfortable space. Bedding is one of the first things people notice when they enter a bedroom. And the type of bedding you use sets the overall tone of the room. Are you going for glamourous and chic or casual and rustic? Whatever your style and taste, it's important to select bedding that reflects your own style and creates the proper feeling or mood for the room.

Lighting is one of the most underestimated elements in interior design. If you have a gorgeous design but do not have the proper lighting, the space falls flat. When it comes to selecting lighting, there are endless options. From floor lamps to table lamps, chandeliers to sconces, deciding what type of lighting will work best for your home and your individual spaces can be daunting.

School is back in session, and the official start of fall is right around the corner. Soon the temperatures will change and so will the colors outside your door. Not only will nature's colors change, but, as usual, the interior design color forecast is changing as well for the upcoming season.

Accessorizing a home is an important part of interior design. Accessories help a homeowner's personality and style to shine through. You can also get creative with accessories and transform a space from drab to fabulous with just a few decorative additions.

We enjoy a strong partnership with Milestone Custom Homes and recently worked with them on this home located in the Cobblestone community. Located in Greenville, SC, this Tuscan-inspired home is all about casual elegance and was designed with a family in mind.

Figuring out how to arrange furniture in your home can be tricky. There are many things you should keep in mind and consider in order to maximize your space and avoid overcrowding.

Purchasing and selecting new dinnerware can be a daunting task. For some of you, you've owned several different collections over the years and are looking for something that fits you and your family in your current season. For others, you might be about to get married and your floral dinnerware and his ultra modern dinnerware just won't mesh.
