Here’s to a Colorful New Year full of colorful possibilities…

Paul with Trumpet Vine

We announced a Facebook contest a couple of weeks ago, challenging our customers and fans to share their colorful New Years resolutions with us. We had an outpouring of wonderful responses! It was extremely difficult to select a winner so we decided to have one grand prize winner with three additional runners up. So here goes…

The 4’6 x 6’6 rug of choice goes to Heather Hilton who resolves to… “look around my life and find positive things in everything I do. I will remember to be amazed at the love around me and not dwell on the negative.”

Runners up who will receive a 2′ x 3′ accent rug include these inspiring individuals….

Pamela Talbot Syverson
I resolve not to make any resolutions whatsoever. Because every day is a new beginning – to discover, explore, learn something new, let go of yesterday, rearrange my life. And I won’t be disappointed if I don’t keep a resolution because I just start all over again tomorrow.

Mary Martin Keller
I resolve to not fear color, but to use it with abandon!

Debra Prescott
I resolve to lighten up and have more fun this year.

And we would like to give a honorable mention to Vicki Ginsburg. We all felt her poem needed to be published for all to read because it is amazingly creative! Thank you, Vicki!

Tuileries_small

I have a “prototype” by Company C,
That truly makes my room,
My wish this year is to be rich enough,
To have my whole house bloom!

I dream and plan that Tuileries
Will grace my parlor floor;
But Maison and Brittany Blue had been on my mind
For a very long time before….

Rise-&-Shine_small

I delight in all the florals…

the petal, the leaf, the plume.

To be surrounded with such beauty

Is more than I can presume.

Rise and Shine each morning
Will greet me by my door;
And the garden of colorful Giverny
always makes my spirits soar~

So now, my Dear Company C,
Please bring me this visual perfume.
And please do not ever tell me
That it will require me having a groom!

My pocketbook is meager
(Oh, I hate to be a bore);
Show kindness to this faithful Fan
And send Love straight from your Store!
