Happy New Year!!!

Please excuse our delay in blogging...we have been busy house cleaning! Valley Design Co. has taken some time to reinvent ourselves and put together a plan for our interior and exterior shop renovations. The expansion of our design studio will add two island spaces to the main floor and give us more room for paint products! Both will come in really handy for serving our customers better! All of this will coincide with the grand opening of the Farmer's Market (across the street) on May 12th and we still have lots of exciting work to do.

Our biggest change yet, is our store hours. We are now open 9am to 5pm Monday through Saturday. We are pleased to announce that Mr. Warren Robillard has joined the Valley Design Co. team, bringing ten more years of experience with him. Now that we have more hands on staff we should be able to handle more decorating, and paint mixing:) Bring it on!

Last year we had a few projects on the go that didn't get completed before the Christmas season hit. We are happy to announce that most have been completed and we have photos to prove it!!

Remeber these???


Kim's garage sale find....

Kim's ottoman before...





















Amber's chair before... Unfortunately, Amber has a difficult time remembering the "before picture" part for A LOT of projects, this one included. She found this chair in her neighbours garage while helping clean it out. It had sat there for more that 20 years and had sat in her Great Aunt's garage prior to that, for just as long. The lines where beautiful, but the seat had served as a nice, warm bed for mice for a long time!! The legs were refinished and the back and seat rebuilt...the end result is remarkable. You'll have to take our word for it!

The new year wouldn't be the same without mentioning the Interior Design Show that took place in Toronto January 26th -29th. Some of our favourite from the show are listed below. Take some time to check out the links.
