One of the first questions everyone asks an interior designer is, “What are the new color trends in design?”  The forecasts for 2014 are in and it’s going to be a very colorful year.  Please join us to celebrate Color & Design: 10 Steps to a Perfect Room.

Brenda Fredrick, interior designer and owner of Beyond Blinds will welcome internationally known speaker and designer, Sally Morse.  Guests will learn about the trends for Color & Design and walk away with some ideas of how to use the newest trends in their homes.  Whether you're building a new home, moving into an older home, remodeling or just wanting to improve what you have, this is the seminar for you.  You’ll learn where to start plan, then something about adding furniture, lighting, windows, walls, floors and accessories.  The 'rules of thumb' demystifies the process of decorating and makes anyone feel like a pro.
