We had a wild fall! Carolina Sold by Design wrapped up several large design jobs, staged three homes & finished the beautiful model in Southport.  All in time to enjoy the holidays with our families!  Whew!  The model is so gorgeous; we really outdid ourselves.  The feedback has been wonderful & the Epsteins have signed one contract & are working on several others. A video is worth a thousand words, so please check out the video link!

We drove 4 hours to Winston Salem on Thursday to see the Braxton Culler furniture we have ordered for the Epstein’s model home.  (Yes, we are nuts to spend 8 hrs in the car, but the anxiety levels are very low now)  Amazing!  We are so thrilled.  Everything looks beautiful & I think we surprised ourselves.  The house is going to look coastal, sophisticated, & inviting.  Can hardly wait to get in there & get started!  The flooring is being laid & the final paint coat goes on next week!

Wow! the Parade of Homes begins Oct 19. We have another five weeks to get ready! Carolina Sold by Design is thrilled to be working with Bill & Jane Epstein of PDL Properties. This is the second Parade Home we have done for them & by far, the most exciting! They are great to work with & have involved us from the start with selections for the interior. Bill is an excellent builder & really puts quality first. The furnishings have been ordered (mostly from Braxton Culler) & the majority of the accessories have been planned and purchased!

 Wow! We just got home from the High Point Furniture Market. Best time ever! We got out of our comfort zone & ventured into the outlying areas of the market and made some great discoveries! It was a blast. We found new ways to use early 20th century factory items, several vendors of old European farm antiques & a new technique for refinishing furniture. Our sandblaster is on the way! Watch out! We hit the junk shops with a vengeance today while our ideas were hot. We are eager to put all of this to use on our current model in Southport.
