Tassel Trim

We discussed brush fringe last week so now it’s time to touch on tassel trims for upholstery items! Tassel Fringe combines the stylish border of a braid or flat trim with the sophisticated look of tassels. Much like brush fringe, tassel trims can add that exquisite finishing touch to curtains, throws, cushions, and valances. Tassel trims come in various color assortments, lengths, and widths of tassel. Tassel fringes hang particularly well on curtain edges and serve the purpose of making curtain fabric edges more elegant, robust, and luxurious. Depending on tassel size, it can protect them from sunlight and also from dirty marks when drawing them back. This type of decorative trim can liven up any space and add a small spark of elegance to a drab drapery or pillow.

Textile Craze: Missoni Stripes Strike Target

Italian luxury design house Missoni partnered with Target to launch a 400+ item line, all hallmarked with their signature zig-zag textile patterns. The Target Corporation, however, was outdone by its own marketing & promotion on Tuesday, September 13th  when the highly anticipated Missoni home goods and clothing line exclusively for Target launched, then sold out online and in most stores its first day, even haulting the powerhouse retailer’s website for nearly 12 hours.

According to their website, the company refers to the assortment as “Target’s largest limited-time designer collection to date, Missoni for Target reflects the Missoni values of family, color and quality. Offering a modern, fresh take on the late 1960s, an era during which the Missoni brand flourished into a global force in fashion, the collection features intertwining textures and patterns in a variety of bold colors such as purple, blue, black and coral.”

The Missoni for Target home goods collection included draperies, rugs, pillows, towels, and dinnerware. The legendary textile house was initially supposed to sell this exclusive line through Target until October 22, but the company reports that unprecedented demand for the goods may prevent them from doing so.

What Can Roman Shades Do For You?


Roman shades present a blend of gorgeous colors and tones with their fabric that give every window an entire space completely decorated with brilliance. Fabric Roman shades also happen to be great light controllers (offering 75-95% UV-protection) and provide ambience within a space. The style of Roman shades is versatile and a perfect alternative to traditional draperies.  They can perfectly blend into any window and interior decorating style, while looking clean with classic and uncluttered lines. Fabric Roman shades come with choices of tear-drop or flat-fold operations and can also be found in a wide array of different finishes, patterns, and colors. They can be accentuated with valances, fringes, and tassels. At Creative Interiors, we can help you select a fabric that suits your style, reflects your personality, and compliments the room and its décor. Our associates will help you select a customizable shade choice and have it accessorized to your liking.

Fall Outdoor Decor!


Fall is slowly creeping upon us! It’s a time for people to move indoors and welcome guests with scents & hints of cinnamon, pumpkin, and apple cider. What better way to greet your guests than with a beautifully decorated entrance. Using materials you may have in your yard or garden, the outside of your home can look as warm and welcoming as the inside. Traditional fall plants, pumpkins, and gourds are customary fall decor items, as well as grape vine and ropes of berries. Scraggly twig wreaths and decorative topiaries can also set a fall entrance apart from the usual.  Scarecrows and bundles of corn stalks can also add to the harvest look, accented by mums and squash.
