Wine and Roses

For Valentine's Day, it's hard to come up with a more dazzlingly beautiful bouquet of home furnishings than that of Oscar de la Renta – a box of chocolates for the home and the very definition of luxury.

Century Furniture makes this fine furniture collection with pitch perfect taste, representing de la Renta's own designs and extraordinary adaptations of his collected pieces from over 40 years. The collection may be special ordered through Toms-Price Home Furnishings.

Mr. de la Renta's three homes are the inspiration behind the collection: His New York City residence, his country estate in Connecticut, and his oceanside island retreat in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. What scope and variety!

Designing Your New Living Room

The look of living rooms has changed. These days we like things informal and some homes have completely done away with the old style, unapproachable living room in favor of the great room or media room.

 Azure Jewel Tones

Even if you still love an elegantly appointed living room, the fabrics being made now have evolved, they are generally longer-lasting, more wearable, comfortable and forgiving. And, there are so many colors and patterns to choose from.

Here are some fresh fabric combinations from the Toms-Price design studio. There are thousands of fabrics choices for any upholstery you buy at our stores. If that sounds daunting, then be assured that our designers are here to help you. They will work with you for free in the store - it's a good idea to make an appointment - or you can schedule a consultation in your home for a nominal $250. That amount is reimbursed if you make a minimum purchase of $2500 within six months.

Just wanted to share this post from Decorator's Best blog with you.

Decorating Naturally

Going to Williamsburg around Christmas is like going back in time... holiday dinners in the taverns and all the fantastic natural decorations using fruit, dried flowers, shells, baked goods and evergreen.

This house is decorated with burlap swags and dried magnolia leaves. It has little star and gingerbread ornaments.

The mice on this wreath and in the shoe are holding up "Liberty or Death" banners and using balls of yarn to tie up the cat. So original!

 

 Pineapples and unusual fruits on this wreath.

Imaginative Leather

When it comes to thinking up fabulous creations in leather, Century does an extraordinary job, as you can see in the beautifully designed sofas here. They offer a lot more styles too. So, if you want to invest in a really unique statement piece, these may be special ordered at Toms-Price.
