Entryways are not just for passing through. No matter the size of your foyer, it can be both a welcome into your home as well as space to use creatively for your own lifestyle. Calling cards used to be left on the hall table furniture when people visited.

Reflections on Mirrors

by Hooker Furniture on 09-06-2012 at 04:16 PM
I’ll admit it, I am a decorating fanatic. I love to talk decorating—anytime with most anyone. But most especially, I love browsing for inspiration in magazines and on websites.

Casual Opulence, Rough Lux & Relaxed Elegance

by Hooker Furniture on 05-22-2012 at 11:03 AM
You wouldn’t expect the words “casual” and “opulent” to hang out together.
After all, casual means “easy style” and “suited for everyday use,” while opulent is anything but ordinary. Opulent means luxurious, effusive, extravagant, gilded and glittery.
But, as the saying goes, “Opposites attract.” And in fact, when “casual” and “opulent” get together in the design world, they make beautiful home décor together.
