New Vendor: Tritter Feefer




Named for the owners' grandchildren, Tritter Feefer is a small, eco-friendly furniture company out of Georgia. In addition to their fun name, we love the look of their pieces (like the above tables) and that they come in a wide variety of finishes.

Halloween 2008




We had a great time getting into the spirt of Halloween by carving pumpkins. It is not as easy as I remember. B.D.

A Few "Unexpected" Surprises....

One of our many eclectic design finds at market was an over-sized silver hand, big enough to seat us all!!! We came across this on our way to more exhibits, and decided it was the perfect excuse for a fun photo op!!


While we were there, we were even fortunate enough to run into the Wizard of Oz gang! Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Lion and Tinman, were helping promote one of our new favorite vendors, "Paragon", and handing out iced "Toto" cookies to munch on our way through. LMH






Star Sightings High Point fall 08




While perusing the latest offerings from Hickory Chair we spotted Thomas O'Brien and his entourage and as we went through the Baker showroom we saw Margaret Russell, the Editor and chief of Elle Decor as well as a judge on Bravos Top Design. I wonder if she had anything nice to say about Baker? She certainly has little nice to say on Top Design. B.D.

Guild Master




We found this great showroom at the High Point Fall 2008 Market. Guild Master is the name of the company. They have incredible furniture that could work with any style. The show room displayed a variety of scenarios that was creative and inspiring and made use of all the product, including furniture, mirrors and accessories. Guild Master was my favorite vendor at this market. DM

Market Favorites, Round 1

At the Fall Market in High Point, NC, the DMD team spent two days perusing new furniture and accessories offerings from around the world (not to mention stalking a few celebrities in the process). We saw too many beautiful and unique pieces to include here, but we did think that we would give you an overview of each of our favorites from the trip!






Several vendors showcased metal and otherwise industrial-style casegoods at this season's market, which I found to be particularly interesting and inspiring. The above metal chair, wire dress forms, and medical cabinets are from Vagabond Vintage Furnishings. They (and other vendors like Go Home, Ltd) mixed this look with weathered wood and eclectic accessories to create an atmosphere that is at once both modern and nostalgic. - esb

Great Idea



A client recently shared with me an easy way to turn on lighting at dusk and it can also be use to turn on seasonal decorations. Simply attach a timer to the fixture, it will always be lit when you need it!

Mirror, Mirror




With new shipments from Uttermost and Evergreen, the DMD studio is bursting at the seams with beautiful accessories. These iron mirrors from Uttermost range from the ecclectic to the traditional. While the sunburst Haviland style makes the most dramatic statement, the various leaves are just in time for some seasonal decorating!

New Schumacher Modern









Dial Meyers has just received the latest fabrics from the Schumacher Modern Collection. What we love about these three in particular is how a simple pattern, hint of metallic or a pop of bright color freshen up a neutral palette. They would be perfect for simple window treatments or throw pillows to give your living space an updated and modern look.

Another Great Before and After




Another Transformation has taken place in Rosemont. They were such a pleasure to work with. We updated the clients den to a grown-up chic space with the family in mind. A sectional is a great way for your family to have lots of room to enjoy viewing the television or just spend some time with each other. The mirror on the wall gives back some reflective light and mimics the motif from the fabric on the window treatment while also making the space seem larger. What a great before and after. DM

The "Latest and Greatest" from Lee Jofa!

Now's the time to spruce up your "roost"
before the hectic holidays (and holiday guests) arrive!
New wallpaper books from Lee Jofa have just
arrived at Dial Meyers, and they are packed with some
spectacular new designs.
