“I am so glad we live in a world where there are Octobers.”  I love that quote. Adria designed this and I created the fall wood sign for my fall mantle in my family room. (You can create one, too, at a class at AR Workshop!)

My favorite thing about Octobers is the chance to redecorate and freshen up spaces around the home to make it more cozy.  We just moved in about a year ago (hard to believe) and my husband has been begging me to get curtains!  I just couldn’t decide what color or pattern I wanted but I know I wanted something classic and classy!  With the help of Budget Blinds, I was able to put some gorgeous drapes in my space that completely finished off the windows and the look!

I chose the most lovely color – Woven Textures Sterling Blue.  I chose the grommet panel style with the oil rubbed bronze as the finish.  This matched my hardware perfectly!

I was so happy to hear that Budget Blinds carries a huge variety of products including blinds, shutters, shades, drapes, and specialty products.  I definitely am going to be taking them up on their FREE in-home consultation to decide what treatment is best for the rest of my home.

I love how the drapes that they offer have different finishes for the hardware grommets.  These were SO easy to hang up and they were affordable!

It feels so good to have the room “almost” done (minus the rug, which I am waiting to get until our puppy is a little more trained!).  How simple it was to cozy up the space with the Budget Blinds drapes and my AR workshop sign and decor!

On another note, be sure to keep up with us on social media – we are so busy with the decor side of our business now!

As you may have noticed, Adria and I have been busy bees with our new DIY Boutique Workshop – AR Workshop.  At AR Workshop, you can sign up for DIY classes to create charming and unique home decor in a lounge style boutique setting, with full instruction of course! (and wine!)

We have opened the Pineville location and the Northville, Michigan AR Workshop is also open.  We are headed up to the Raleigh, NC AR Workshop grand opening this weekend and are SO excited!  What wonderful friends and staff we have. 

We have pulled lots of designs from our Anders Ruff library of copyrighted designs that we have created over the years and this new one is one of my favorites. Make sure to check back in with us and on the AR Workshop blog as well for more room makeovers for the holidays!
