WINDOW BLING...THE HARDWARE by POSH INTERIORS,LLC- ATLANTA INTERIOR DESIGN
As a designer, fall season is usually the rush reason. Everyone wants their house to look great for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I am in high demand for window treatments and designs. Besides from selecting the fabric, making sure it flows and drapes perfectly, hardware selection is just as equally important. I think the hardware gives you the opportunity to add a little "Bling" to your window.

COLOR...WHAT'S HOT? WHAT'S NOT? by Posh Interiors, LLC
Well, I will first answer the title question. All colors are hot. It is not the color that you use that makes a statement in a room. It is the combination of colors that create a "WOW" effect to a space. Your designer can work with you to create a color combination for a long lasting impression on your visitors.
So, with that said, do not limit yourself to the colors you see in a magazine. Yes, this helps with inspiration, but can also lead to boredom once you no longer see that color while flipping through your home decor magazines. Choose the color you like and leave the rest up to your designer.
One of my favorite colors is pink. Take a look at how nice these rooms look painted pink:
Get Inspired with Color!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL by Posh Interiors, LLC Atlanta Interior Design
I absolutely love using mirrors in design. Mirrors are both fashionable and functional. They can even make the size of a room appear larger. In order to capture the best use of your mirror, make sure you have the right type of mirror for the space.
When assessing homes prior to working on design projects, I frequently see functional mirrors in places that should have fashionable mirrors. One such place is over the mantle. If you are going to use a functional mirror over a fireplace mantle, check to see if it reflects something pretty, such as a chandelier. You do not want to look in the mirror and see the pickets of your staircase. I prefer fashionable mirrors over fireplaces such as the Aria or Raindrops mirror found on http://www.pinkdoordecor.com/. Both of these mirrors are a piece of art. You really don't notice the reflection that appears in these mirrors. Your eyes remain focused on the beauty of the design.
Functional mirrors work wonders in small spaces. The reflection makes the space appear larger. You can use a functional mirror anywhere, just make sure you pay attention to what is being reflected. The Galeton and Winsford Venetian are great examples of functional mirrors, both found on www.pinkdoordecor.com
Here's a great link that talks about the uses of functional mirrors from a feng shui perspective:

PILLOW PAIRING...SIZE DOES MATTER by Posh Interiors, LLC Atlanta Interior Design
I am excited because I just received my new throw pillows from Pink Door Decor. The pillows look great on my 13 year old reupholstered sofa. Changing out your throw pillows give an old sofa a face lift. The size, pairing and inserts of your pillows do matter if you want to create a savvy look for your sofa. As a designer, I love mixing patterns and fabrics. If you use solids, throw in a few prints. I also think it is important that the pillows are of different sizes. In my illustrations below, I have paired 22x22 inch pillows with 18x18 inch pillows. I have even thrown in a 14x26 inch pillow in the ikat design.
All of Pink Door Decor inserts are feather/down filled and removable. With feather/down pillows, you never have to worry about your pillow losing its shape. Foam inserts are less expensive, but overtime, the pillow becomes flat and you can not fluff it out. Finally, when I dress the sofa with the pillows, I love leaving a chop on the front pillow for pizzazz.
I would love to get your feedback on this blog subject. Send me your comments!
