Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda....

I am here in,
Camp Grenada,
camp is very,
decorating,
counselor says our color scheme
she is just hating....

As I scan the news headlines, I am continually amazed how teens are becoming more and more aware of home decorating and design.

I grew up in a design family; instead of a lemonade stand, I set up an imaginary furniture store and would invite my family to come shop. I guess you can say I have it in my blood. But none of my friends really cared about home furnishings like I did.

I guess I was born um, "twenty nine" years too late ;-)!

RALEIGH -- Instead of the traditional fishing and canoeing at summer camp, 11 teenage girls sketched rooms on graph paper, lugged rugs and slid sofas during Tuesday's session of Moon Interiors Decorating Camp"

I have been selling carpet for over 20 years, and every other year they introduce...

The next big thing!!!

Remember Scotchgard? That was hot once upon a time, now you can't even buy it. Bad for the lungs or something...

I like to keep it real simple with carpet. Here's a question I get all the time.
