The American Porch is Celebrated on 6/5 in Libertyville, IL

MainStreet Libertyville is hosting its 7th annual self-guided Historic Walking Tour on Saturday, June 5, from 10am to 2pm.  The focus of this year’s tour is the classic front porch, prominent throughout much of American architectural history.

Many houses in Libertyville feature distinctive front porches, and this year’s tour will focus on a carefully selected group of about twenty. A variety of architectural styles will be represented. In addition, several gardens and interiors will be open for viewing.

Tour participants can enjoy walking, biking, or driving through town to see these distinguished homes. MainStreet Libertyville Volunteers will be in Cook Park distributing the Walking Tour booklets describing the history of the houses and directions to the various properties. These tour booklets are offered for a donation of $10.00 to MainStreet Libertyville.

As a long-standing interior design firm in Libertyville, we were asked to lend our expertise and design one of the porches on the tour. Stop by 205 W. Cook Street to see our interpretation of the American porch!

Rug Sale!

Area rugs are a wonderful way to instantly transform a space. Some rugs become the room’s focal point, almost acting as artwork. Other rugs simply provide a soft surface underfoot and are intended to blend in with their surroundings.

For the month of April, enjoy 25% off these beautiful eco-friendly rugs. Using untreated 100% natural wool greatly reduces the amount of dye used in making a rug. These natural rugs are certified by GoodWeave. Please contact us for sizes, pricing & availability.

Look Up!

We can help you create the illusion of a loftier or cozier space by treating the ceiling.  Consider a decorative finish, mural, medallion or even wallpaper up above your head.

2010 Interior Design Trends

After closely observing 2009’s design styles, Chelle Design Group looks ahead to the coming year and  anticipates the following trends for Twenty-Ten. Here’s the first one! Check back soon for the next trend.

Daring Design and Couture Craft

Get ready to see rooms layered in fabrics, textures, accessories. Bold & graphic patterns with lots of pattern mixing are the new black. And what better way to do so than with wallpaper! Patterns are bigger & bolder than ever before, and will be a stunning statement in any space.  We love Cole & Sons’ Fornasetti Collection wallpaper.
