When I needed to come up with a cover for my brochure, I chose a picture of one of my treatments that is beautiful and unique. It is a window style that many of my clients struggle with to decorate. Hope it gives you an idea for your own high style windows!

Small Space Decorating
I have just finished reading the newest issue of House Beautiful Magazine with its feature on small space decorating ideas and suggestions. Those who know me know I live in my own small space and have written an e-book on this topic I have lived with for years. If you get a chance to get a copy and read this feature, I know you will enjoy it. We all have a small space somewhere that needs help.

Environmentally Conscious Fabrics
I now carry a collection of drapery/upholstery fabrics that are made of organic cotton and blends. This material was fabricated with minimal effect on the environment. The group is called "Footprints" and the assortment is beautiful. Using these fabrics for your custom window treatments helps all of us and Mother Earth.

Green Is "In"
Here at Creatively Yours Custom, we firmly believe in green decorating to help our planet and environment. It is not about a green color choice rather it has to do with using eco-friendly products in design. To introduce this practice let’s start with a few simple choices we all can make.
♣Purchase organic cotton bath towels available at most major stores. Cotton is a renewable source and when grown organically, uses no chemicals. You help preserve the soil and get a really soft towel. Cottonis also biodegradable.
♣Bamboo makes a wonderful wood floor. It is a renewable resource and does not use formaldehyde or give off toxic odors in your home. You’ll all breathe better!
♣We all have old draperies, bedspreads, etc. sitting around the house waiting to go to the landfill. You could donate them to shelters, Humane Societies, veterinary clinics to name a few. Think reusable not disposable.
