Designer "Tear Sheet" Thursday - FLOR

Do you know FLOR?  


If you're in the Dallas area tonight, you can participate in the opening of a brand new FLOR store. 

Flor is one of the most innovative flooring options that's ever been created for people who live in the real world.  They have designed great looking carpet tiles that stick to one another in a semi-permanent way, but allows you to remove and replace tiles that get soiled or stained.  Their FLORdots are self-adhesive and stick the tiles to one another, making it easy to mix and match and replace.  Genius!

They  are even "green" minded in that they will take your old tiles and recycle them!  Good for the planet too!

They make great rugs or wall - to- wall applications.....suit yourself.

And talk about great designs!   Check these out and visit their website for more ideas and designs.  www.flor.com

Botanicals - Moss

Channel Surfing 

Haute Stuff

House Pet - Hamster



Passage Way - Citron

Shaggy Sheep

Souk Chic - Blue

As a designer, I think there are so many practical and stylish uses for the Flor carpet squares.  The options for creativity are endless and it fits into the budget of the most discerning client.  With children and pets in a home, I think they provide a great solution to high traffic areas.  

Although FLOR tiles are not exclusive to the trade, when you need help designing your space with these cool tiles, don't hesitate to call your favorite interior designer.  

(I haven't been compensated in any way by FLOR for this post....I just think they're cool and I wanted to pass the love on!)

Designer Tear Sheet Thursday

This week I've been up to my eyeballs in drapery designs.  We're designing panels, valances and shades for several projects, and it's important that the right hardware is chosen to enhance the style and fabric of the design.  


Fabricut has created a beautiful collection of drapery hardware in many styles and finishes.  




Look at the shiny gold and the cut crystal!   A real trend setter!  This collection is available in chrome, pewter and brass.




Always a popular choice, the classic traditional styling of this collection works in so many of my clients' homes.  It is available in water gilded gold and silver, 18th century gold, fruitwood and espresso.  

These collections and many more are available through Sally J. Designs.

Designer Tear Sheet Thursday

I've been buffet shopping this week for dining room buffet.  My challenge was a small room, larger (but gorgeous) table which didn't leave alot of room for the buffet the client wanted.


We loved this one from American Drew, the Bob Mackie Collection. 




We loved the clean lines and the different colors of wood which goes beautifully with her table.
Pretty huh?

Designer "Tear Sheet" Thursday

This week's designer tear sheet is a pair of chrome lanterns from the Winsor Collection from Riado and available to the trade at Taylor's on Ten in the Dallas World Trade Center. I love the sleek, rectangular shape in highly polished chrome juxtaposed to the chunky leather handle.
Available in two sizes, they look great together or can certainly stand alone.  

But lanterns are not new.  We know they were carried around in the middle ages, so how difficult is it to bring something fresh to this ancient accessory?

Made to look old, these classic lanterns make a statement when grouped together.

Traditional shapes, colonial or French renaissance, continue to be a popular choice for pendants and chandeliers.

Contemporary designers have streamlined the lantern shape making this classic fit well into more transitional spaces.  Whether candle-lit or electrified they bring a beautiful ambiance to every space they grace.

Urban Electric Lanterns

And even if you get creative and make your own, lanterns bring a great style wherever you decide to hang them!

Designer "Tear Sheet" Thursday






When I'm shopping "To the Trade" showrooms for something specific for a client, I'll ask the showroom for a "tear sheet".  That is a picture and description of an item that they are selling.  I can then share the tear sheet with my client and keep a copy in their folders so I have all the pertinent info.  


I thought it might be fun to do a post each week and call it Tear Sheet Thursday.  it will be an opportunity to share some of the newest products and furniture that have crossed my path that week with my readers. 


This week, I've been shopping for a chaise and I found this one!  This modern, modified wing-back chaise has great style and shape!  This would look amazing in so many spaces!

Isn't she a beauty!


Here's some inspiration for using a chaise in your own space.
