Expressing Personal Style is the Latest Trend in Kitchen Design
Posted by Sharon Bondie
Can’t buy a home with the kitchen of your dreams…then remodel your current home and express your personal style in every design element! According to the National Association of the Remodeling Industry, business is booming for contractors and others in home improvement businesses. In fact, a recent study conducted by Harvard University's Joint Center for Housing Studies estimates Americans will spend $160 billion on repairs and home improvements in 2007, a 3.2 percent increase over the previous year. The five most popular remodeling projects will be kitchens and bathrooms, additions, and changing the paint, floor and wall coverings.

Incorporate Textures Into Your Home Decor
Posted by Sharon Bondie
Popular home decor and home improvement blog Apartment Therapy has offered a fun entry about getting more tactile in the home. The Article cites several textures that are becoming popular. The use of wicker in home decor is on its way back in for sure. Mixing it with other textures is the thing to do. Consider combining it with hardwood floors. The great thing about hardwood floors is that they can support any decor. As trends come and go, hardwoods are here forever. Wide planks boards are very popular and unusual. They create a very free flow look in your floor not a choppy look that can fight with your decor.

Hi, my name is Sharon Bondie and I am an account manager for Carlisle Wide Plank Floors located in our Southeastern region. I came to Carlisle Wide Plank Floors a few years ago from one of the largest home improvement chains in the world. It is a wonderful to be part of the Carlisle family. I feel like I am surrounded by family all day. They say that laughing is the mystery cure for all illnesses. Well if this is true then we are all really healthy in our Carlisle family.
We have a fun group here in the southeast as you see in the attached picture. The pink pig is a Christmas tradition that has been around Atlanta for about 30 years. People bring their kids every year to ride at Christmas. We thought it would be fun to put a picture of all of us in our Carlisle newsletter (yes, we even have our own newsletter) so we went as a group and took a picture after our ride.
I love to spend time with family and friends. Much of my free time is spent on decorating friends' and family's homes. They call me "the Queen of Returns". I actually leave tags on things for unlimited time frames so that I can get a feel for the flow of the décor. I can give you a run down of the return policy in most stores!!!! Many know me by name!!!! Oh well, if it fits wear it and if not return it except for a Carlisle Floor. This is something that will be with your home for hundreds of years. It is made to outlast us and carry on to be with our loved ones for years to come.
I think that it is truly a blessing to be able to have a Carlisle floor. Not only because of the beauty but because there is so much love and pride that goes into each one of our floors. There is nothing more satisfying than sharing my passion for our floors everyday with all of you out there.
There really is nothing more important than the surface that we live on with the people that we love. That is the message that I will share with people while blogging!!!
