The Three F’s of Custom Furniture Design

Going to High Point Market in North Carolina to see all the latest offerings in furniture and interior design. I’m excited to be spending time at the C.R. Laine showroom because they are a vendor I use quite a bit. The quality of their furniture, fabrics and finishes is superb and I am so excited to introduce them to those of you who may not know about them. If you are looking for custom furniture in Kansas City and like what you see, I hope you’ll think of me and the team at Design Connection. We can help you design furniture that is perfect and tailored specifically for you!

Arlene shares some Design Connection inspiration on outdoor design this week.

Could Painting Be Good For Your Health?

I’m talking about that hot topic these days of non-toxic paint. Commonly known as zero or low VOC paint, the VOC stands for Volatile Organic Compounds- which is basically the stuff that compels you to open a window after breathing a few too many fumes. If you are considering painting, now is the time to learn more about low VOC paints and the impact using them can have not only on your style, but your health.
