Holiday Rugs '08

As promised, here are some of our most Holiday creations on sale in our showroom. Remember to stop by our showroom at 1217 N. Merrifield Mishawaka, Indiana. :)

Christmas is coming soon!

Sorry, it's been so hectic lately at our store, I haven't had time to write any blogs! Business has recently really picked up even with the economic struggles. I promise by next week I will have a big detailed blog about all our new holiday rugs and goodies. Wait until you see these Santa pillows I made, they are hilarious! Sorry for the quick blog, but I have to go hang Christmas lights with my son. He wants to go for the Clark Griswald effect this year!

November News!

Yay! My favorite holiday is quickly coming up. I just love Thanksgiving. Preparing all the delicious food and being around the family. What could be better?

This whole month has been crazy! My daughter just had her baby month a week ago, so I'm now a Grandma. It's so exciting. I drove all the way down to North Carolina to visit her, it was quite the long drive.

Well, I'll stop rambling now and give you some info you might be interested in. If you visit indianarugco.com you'll find we have a cute turkey area rug for sale. It's great deal and perfect rug for Thanksgiving decor.

South Bend Museum of Art

Hi there guys, how's it going? Above is the fancy letter I received from the South Bend Museum of Art regarding their benefit auction & dinner on October 2, 2008. We donated one of our rugs to them for their Off The Wall gala fundraiser. The goal of this event was to promote regional artists and to honor artist "Maria Tomasula."

I would like to thank the South Bend Museum of Art for allowing me to join them in their fundraiser and for all they do for local artists like myself. It was a great event to be apart of.

Fall Decorating

Well guys and girls, my favorite time of the year has finally arrived, fall! I especially love to decorate my house during this time of year. Here are some tips I have for fall decorating.

• Celebrate with warm rust and gold hues
  

• Fill the house with cinnamon aroma

• Accessorize with seasonal pillows and area rugs,

• Fall floral arrangements (think wreaths and orange/red flowers)

• Since Halloween is near, bring out all the Halloween decorations and scatter them around
