All I can say is WOW! Color!
I just returned from High Point, N.C., where the Spring Market was held. How exciting to see all the color. Grey has been so strong for the past three to four years, so it’s such a pleasant change to see some colors. One popular bold choice, navy and lime green!
High Point Market is a world all its own. You see everything. If your desire is streamlined or sterile, big and chunky, oversized to miniature, it’s all at your disposal at the market. Just the feeling you have when you are surrounded with the beauty and excitement is almost overwhelming.
If you are wanting to update your rooms for spring, go to Ford’s Facebook page and take a look at the photos from the market that we shared with our Facebook friends. It’s almost like you can share the experience with us.
Don’t be afraid to step out of the box and add color to your prints, pillows, rugs, and accessories and more. This is a small investment compared to plunging headfirst into a larger purchase and being unsure of what you want to accomplish. Remember, this is all about your wants, needs and comfort level. Stop in Ford’s Furniture and see the many new looks we have for spring and summer. Be sure and check out the new bedroom suites from HGTV’s Ben and Erin Napier as well.
