Duvet Covers

2007 Trends for bedding and textiles is full of colors and lots and lots of luxurious fabrics.  Mixing fabrics for a bedding ensemble is becoming the norm and if you look at vogue home decor magazines you are sure to see bedding with a beautiful marriage of cottons, silks, chenille and fur.  Highlighting the designer fashion bedding is decorative pillows which further enhance the bedding ensemble and give your bedroom decor a designers look.  Decorative pillows help give your bedroom a finishing touch especially when scattered around your room: try placing one on a chair, a few on a lounge chair, placed in a small group on the floor perhaps with an accessory prop such as a basket or any other place you could use something to bring your entire room together. 

While neutrals are becoming very popular again along with blues and greens, any color you love will work as long as you are not afraid to mix fabrics to make you bed dressing more exciting and rich in decor.

Spring Means Garden Enjoyment Time

Well...it is official Spring begins Wednesday, March 21st.  Is it me or does it seem New Years was just over?  For many of us, this time of year is when we start our spring cleaning and think about tidying up the yard, patio and garden areas so we can enjoy our outdoor living space.  All of the garden centers and home improvement stores are making room for plants and garden accessories and outdoor furniture.

Teak Furniture

Over the years more people are opting for better quality products for their extended warm weather living areas.  Teak furniture has always been popular all around the country due to its durability.  Deep seating sets and larger furniture pieces like double loungers have increased in status for the comfort and amount of seating space they provide. 

While the initial cost of outdoor teak furniture is more expensive than aluminum or other types of wood furniture, the longevity makes the price a fantastic return on your investment.

Our new Monterey Double Teak Lounger is fast becoming a best seller.  It's stylish adjustable seat variations combined with its elegant style customers have said is what makes is so popular and why its a "must have for their outdoor decor".

If you've been looking for an accent piece of furniture around your pool or on your patio or deck; consider the extra roomy 55 inch teak lounger.  Imagine having a piece of paradise in your own backyard oasis. (Note: Cushion shown is optional)

Outdoor Garden Planters

The International Home Show this January in Atlanta, GA had a few surprising twists when it came to consumer wants for outdoor accessories.  Besides furniture, lightweight garden planters was the number one item home decorators are in the market for.  Those that are familiar with Decorative Visions Home Collections is aware that we carry a variety of planters including terra cotta, fiberstone planters and fiberglass planters in various finishes and sizes but we discontinued our Copper planters to make room for a new market introduction: LavaStone Planters.

  LavaStone planters, are imported from the Phillippines and are hand-crafted from volcanic ash.  The lightweight structure and durability factor of the lavastone garden planters make them suitable for either indoor or outdoor use.

If you've been looking for a simple way to enhance your front entrance or add a focal point to your patio or garden a lightweight lavastone planter would be a
wonderful choice.  While the planter can be left outside year round, you may wish to bring the elegant planter indoors to house either a silk or live plant.
