Happy Thanksgiving to all!!
I hope that all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day celebration. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I wish retailers both small and large would spend a little bit of time to promote it in their businesses. This year seemed like it had even gotten worst. By October Christmas was the main theme in too many stores with little evidence that their was another holiday that was still to come. I am not sure what is happening. Do people not like Thanksgiving anymore? Do retailers not see the value is promoting Nesting and Thanksgiving related products? It is just so annoying to see so much cheap crappy looking Christmas decorations and gift items displayed everywhere so early in the holiday season. Well I guess we just reached the point in society where being thankful for what you are getting (Christmas gifts) is so much important than being thankful for what you are able to give (Thanksgiving).

Well, this post is for all of you who like me really appreciate Thanksgiving. Above you will see some simple elegant Holiday Centerpieces that you can display in your home that will truly bring visual joy during the holiday. These images are from Domino Magazine.

Eco-Friendly Holiday Decorating.....
As a business that has always been considerate in the kinds of products we sell to our customers. I would like to introduce a wonderful new product , Benjamin Moore's zero-VOC paint, Natura. With the holiday season creeping up on us, many people are looking to decorate their homes and freshen things up to make their home look nice for holiday entertainment and family gatherings. With the economy being what it is, families are looking for an inexpensive way to get their homes prepared but in an economic way. While natural paints are more expensive then the ones filled with toxic chemicals. Painting is still an easy way to re-decorate on a budget. Nothing changes a room and makes a home seam fresh and clean then a fresh coat of paint.

At the moment the new paint line is so new that it's only available in California, Oregon, Washington, and Texas.

I am so inspired by these beautiful images. Now this is the kind of Halloween I like. I normally don't decorate my store for Halloween because most of the decorations out there are so darn tacky and cheap looking and don't provide any originality. The beautiful paper products will be available at Botany's Desire in a week. This is only a small selection of the line. We will only have a limited amount in stock so come by early and check them out in person.
