With 2011 wrapping up I am reflecting on the past 12
months and want you to know how I value your continued business,
referrals and support. This year has been very successful for Michele
McCarthy Interiors. We had a big year starting off with moving downtown.
It’s amazing how I forgot how good it feels to start fresh in a new
space. I’m constantly helping clients to achieve that new room feel so
it was nice to personally feel and see the benefits that changing space
provides.

I trust you and your family had a very Merry Christmas.
Here’s to a very healthy and prosperous New Year.

New Year’s Eve Host Presents

I was recently turned on to the following fun host
presents:

Root 1 Wine

You can snatch a bottle of this Chilean wine for only
$12 at Publix or your local liquor store. The bottle is beautiful and
it’s a great wine for the price.

Corkcicle

This is a
great way to always have your wine chilled to perfection. Simply put
the corkcicle in the freezer and then replace the original cork after
it’s frozen for the chilliest wine every time. You can get this great
present from Granada Gourmet.

2012 Design Forecast

I continue to see natural materials like bamboo, wood
and rocks in the industry of interior design for 2012. This trend has
longevity due to its easy application in floors, furniture and walls. I
recommend maximizing your natural feel by adding pops of natural color
to any room like meadow green or sky blue or set up a consultation to
touch and feel the amazing wallpaper I rave about all the time.
Wallpaper (wall coverings) isn’t what they used to be. The look and
feel is very hip and now.

I’m also seeing
more eclectic design in the forecast for 2012. A concept that began in
the 20th century, eclectic design was originally used as a symbol of
wealth and prosperity. This trend is being seen in 2012 designs and is
a crowd pleaser because of its rich culture, art and traditions it may
combine. Modern style meets traditional D for 2012.

Think About Your Desires in 2012

This is a perfect time of year to create a mental (or physical) wish list
of design changes or additions you would like for your space for the New
Year. Whether it’s rearranging an outdoor patio set, adding wallpaper to
a powder room, turning a closet into a work station or making your garage
functional, write down a list of changes you want to make and stay
focused on them. By knowing what you want for the New Year, it will be
easier for you to plan on how to get the look and feel you want. Let me know
how I can help in anyway. I work hourly or by project.
