             Think Spring with Garden Planters

If you've been thinking about your garden or your outdoor space there is no better time to consider adding a few new durable garden planters to your outdoor space.
While it may still seem early spring is just a week away and soon everyone will be wanting new planters.  Right now is the best time to find the perfect garden planter to add as a focal point for your patio, deck or entrance. 
We have a great selection of durable fiberglass and fiberstone planters in many sizes and styles to fit your outdoor decor.  Fiberstone and fiberglass planters look and feel just like real stone without the back breaking weight making them easy to move from one spot to the next and the best part is they are durable and can withstand all weather conditions.  A quality planter will last for a very long time and add elegance and style to your surroundings.

                                            Elegant Gift Baskets Made-to-Order

Our designers have been busy creating unique gift baskets for a memorable gift your recipient will not soon forget.  All of our baskets use home decor items as the containers which the gift receiver will be able to use in their own home after the goodies are gone.

Our baskets are not massed produced but rather made-to-order ensuring your recipient will receive fresh gourmet delights and confections!  You will not find a lot of fillers in our gift baskets either, we only use enough fillers to secure the delicate items in the basket and for presentation.

If you would like other items in your gift basket our designers would love to create a custom basket just for you...no basket is too small or too big.  Having a fundraising activity? We'll be happy to assist you by creating a deluxe gift basket for your silent auction or raffle. 

We feel that when you give a gift basket the recipient should be able to enjoy the basket as much as the contents and as the gift giver wouldn't you like your recipient to enjoy the container in their own home rather than putting it in the attic or worse throwing it in the trash?  We would and that is what sets our baskets apart...quality products, gourmet delights and home decor accessories...when only the best will do.

Well after settling back into business routine after the International Home and Gift Show in Atlanta, Ga. I can say there will be lots of color for 2008.  While visiting vendors showrooms I saw a lot of color being used in home decor which seems to be following the fashion trend.

Blue and brown is still a hot color and I think this will continue well into 2009 and possibly 2010 so if you like those two colors you'll be very stylish.  Also popular is brown with green.  Chocolate brown is being used a lot from dishes, bath towels, bedding to kitchen canisters not to mention all kinds of accent pieces for the home.

Surprisingly, I found a lot of red being shown by manufacturers and the colors really add a lot of excitement!  I'm normally not one to decorate with reds but after seeing so many bright beautiful shades I may just change my mind about using the color red in my home.  Colors are being interchanged alot with the use of red paired with neutrals for counter top accessories and kitchen canister sets.  It is kind of refreshing to see color being used more in home decorating!  We'll be receiving our show shipments soon which includes red kitchen canisters in two different shades and a chocolate brown canister set new colors for Decorative Visions this year.  We're also waiting the arrival of new canisters in neutral colors with an elegant scroll pattern with a sophisticated high glaze finish accented by decorative bases.

We're also adding new shower curtains and matching bath accessories in many new styles including nautical maritime bath collections, chocolate brown with geometric patterns in gorgeous spice colors, something both men and women will like equally and of course Kathy Ireland bath sets.  Keep an eye on our website as our shipments will be arriving shortly.

This is just a quick post to let everyone interested in home decorating and the latest trends that buyers from Decorative Visions Home Collections will be attending the International Home and Gift Show in Atlanta, Georgia January 11-14th.  Our buyers will be looking for color trends in textiles and accessories to help give your home a bit of your personality.

Have you been looking for something specific?  Our buyers have a customer list of items they would like to have in their homes and we will be on the look out for those items during the show.

As soon as our buyers are back from the show we'll be posting what we have learned to be the "in thing" for 2008 in decor.  In the mean time please visit Decorative Visions Home Collections where you will find a wide variety of home decor and accent accessories to make your home beautiful.
