Educate yourself on flooring before you go shopping

Be in the know and speak the lingo! How wide are modern broadloom carpets? What ever happened to linoleum? Why do I need a different kind of carpet for outdoor areas? What's the difference between a Saxony and a Frieze? Is shag carpet cool? How does tackless installation work? We've got your answers.

If you haven't been in the market for carpet, hardwood or tile in the last 10 years, you are in for a big surprise. Flooring has advanced so much that laminates and tile look like real hardwood flooring. So before you walk into a big box store educate yourself. Your sales person is going to sometimes have a biased opinion about the flooring. Now this could be a good thing based on experience with using the products, but it could also be a bad thing based on higher commissions. This flooring glossary link here will help you educate yourself about the types of flooring, and let you choose what's right for you. http://www.nwtrendsspokanefa.com/flooring-glossary

Spokane Community College uses Molly Scott for Interior Design

This year the Spokane Community College used Molly Scott for Interior Design finish selection for 2013 Touch the Future House located at 3818 S. McDonald Lane, Spokane Valley, WA located in the Pine Rock Ridge development. Molly worked closely with the Spokane Community College Foundation to get exactly what they needed for hardwood flooring, quartz countertops and tile backsplash. Molly created a contemporary design for the master bathroom with a similar tile design in the guest bathroom. Northwest Trends was able to secure deeply discounted products for this project which kept the foundation within budget. A big thank you to our local supplier Cosentino Spokane who supplied the Silestone quartz for the kitchen countertops. This home is currently for sale. For more information on the interior finishes in this home contact Northwest Trends at 509.921.9677 or visit their showroom located at 11315 E. Montgomery Dr. Spokane Valley, WA 99206.

Tile is not just for floors

Tile flooring sure has come a long way. It use to be that in the Inland Northwest you would only see tile on the bathrooms floors, and maybe in a mud room. Now tile is so beautiful and versatile with so many patterns and color options that we can use it all the way up to the ceiling. The tile above is from Emser Tile which is sold by Northwest Trends in the Spokane Valley. Northwest Trends has great floors including many other flooring options like slate, porcelain, ceramic, quarry tile, natural stone, limestone, laminate vinyl tile (LVT), hardwood, carpet, and area rugs. For more information on sizes, prices and availability contact Northwest Trends at 509.921.9677 or stop in the showroom located at 11315 E. Montgomery De. Spokane Valley, WA 99206.

Choosing the right color of window treatments & blinds

The Right Whites

Although it's no longer passé to wear white year round, it is unequivocally recognized as the color of summer—we wear it as opposed to darker colors because it makes us feel lighter and cooler during the warm weather months. The color white also brings to mind a sense of calmness and ease—the color is pure, classic and clean, and always in-style. It's no surprise that out of the thousands of color options for Hunter Douglas window fashions, white is the most popular choice.

What's interesting about white is that there is so much more than meets the eye when it comes to choosing this color. Some may think that white comes in two versions: a stark, crisp white or off-white. But in fact, a lot of whites possess undertones to them, which is the addition of a secondary color that transforms the white. A white with an undertone is still considered white, but it's not quite as stark and when done correctly, it can really complete the color palette in any room.

Interested in a white with an undertone for your home? Use my guide for selecting the right whites:

If your wall color is:	Try:
Navy, lavender, gray, silver or maroon	A slight blue undertone
Sage, green, gold or bronze	A yellow undertone
Pink, fuchsia, red or burgundy	A pink undertone
Orange, coral or salmon	A peach undertone
Brown, beige, taupe	A cream undertone
Black	A cream or gray undertone

Virtually all our window fashions are offered in the color white, including all our Sheers, Shades, Honeycombs, Blinds and Shutters.

As always, I hope my suggestions help you as you shop for window fashions. As you browse, I also recommend you use some of these great Hunter Douglas online resources:

Visit the iMagine™ Design Center to help you visualize what products look like in different colors, styles and fabrics.
Download the new Hunter Douglas Art of Window Dressing™ iPad App to see your favorite products in your home by uploading your own room photos—or choose one of ours to imagine the possibilities.
