True Hardwood Story - Bringing New England to Lake Keowee, SC

It’s a warm, sunny day in Seneca, South Carolina. The gentle breeze is wafting off of Lake Keowee and the air is thick with the sound of birds, the rustling leaves, and…the landscapers? Are they cutting down that tree over the walkway?! Ronda Ringo just finished a conference call when I gave her a call, and amidst the hustle and bustle of her daily life as a Solutions Principal for EMC Software, she now feared that her yard was going to be treeless. Thankfully, everything was under control, and I got to learn of the fateful way that Ronda and Carlisle Wide Plank Floors were united.

Outside of her day job, Ronda loves interior design. Over the years, she’s assembled an extensive portfolio of things that have caught her eye - carpet samples, paint colors, design ideas, and supply companies. A long-time subscriber of Coastal Living magazine, Ronda had seen an advertisement for Carlisle Wide Plank Floors years ago, and knew that was what she wanted to have in her home someday. She tucked the clipping into her portfolio without too much thought at the time. When it came time for her to design her own home from scratch years later, the light went on and she remembered that little clipping as she discussed her flooring options with her contractor.

    Leaving shoes by the door is an excellent thing to do. It protects every kind of flooring.

    I wish more people in the UK would take their shoes off at the door.

    I dedicated an whole blog to this subject that you might want to take a look at.

    Hi,
    This blog is about me, and it probably should be updated for a couple of reasons.  First, I no longer work at EMC, and second, I know own Decor On The Lake, LLC.  I have my own blog at http://www.rondaringodecorator.com and my own website at http://www.decoronthelake.com 

    I’d love to figure out a way how we can work togther here in the southeast so that I can recommend Carlisle to other folks around the upstate lake area.

    I can be reached at 864-882-7273.
    I look forward to it!
    ronda
