Home Decor Notes

Every week, when the Sunday New York Times Book Review asks a successful author who they would like to have at a dinner party, they come up with wonderful lists of favorite writers. At Decorative Things, we like to think about which home decor gurus we would like to meet. Sprinkled thru our online home decor store, you’ll find decorating ideas and tips for entertaining from many of our muses, from to B. Smith and The Barefoot Contessa, to Martha Stewart.

Decorating and style gurus all seem to concur, when it comes to room decoration, do what makes you happy. We agree. What makes us happy is to turn ordinary things into decorative things. And we love to share our passion for bathroom decor, table decor, kitchen decor, and home decor with you.

We offer home decor that can turn ordinary things into decorative things in every room of your house. For example, we never ever want to have store bought tissue box covers in our bathrooms, mingled among our desk décor, or holding facial tissues on our bedroom nightstands. Hence, we offer decorative tissue box covers in many materials and designs from fabric tissue holders, to papier mache and clear lucite tissue box covers.

In this age of constant handwashing, our decorative paper hand towels are key to bathroom decor. And our hand towel holders are a fabulous way to showcase them. For kitchen decor, our kitchen paper towel holders will bring you joy every time you reach for an ordinary paper towel.

For bathroom décor, we love decorative fabric shower curtains. The range of exciting, fresh, decorator fabrics available to us lets our imaginations run wild. From classic ticking striped shower curtains to Tommy Bahama beach decor shower curtains, our very cool shower curtains make a statement. And because we make all of our unique shower curtains in the USA, we are able to offer them in many lengths as well as many patterns. We offer extra long shower curtains 84” and 96” in addition to traditional 72” fabric shower curtains.

When it comes to table decor, the opportunities to set the table with decorative things instead of ordinary things is great. Why have plain paper napkins when you can have decorative paper napkins that lift table settings to a new level? For casual entertaining and daily family meals, our paper placemats look great at the kitchen table or the dining table. And for more formal occasions, we offer decorative cloth napkins and table runners to mix with your table decorations and tablescapes.

If it’s window valences you seek, we offer a wide selection of valance curtains. We offer decorative window treatments from kitchen valances to living room valances. Valances are much easier window coverings to install and care for than more traditional window curtains and drapes.

And don’t forget rugs, like our Claire Murray washable rugs which are delightful kitchen rugs, entryway rugs, bathroom rugs…. These washable rugs and runner rugs come in many designs. There are small rugs that are ideal for beach decor, farmhouse decor, rustic decor and more.

Thank you for stopping at our online home decor store. As the sign at one of my favorite roadside flower stands says, “Gotta hunch, buy a bunch!” Whether it’s flowers or decorative paper hand towels, decorative things can uplift our spirits in a beautiful way.
