As you all know, I’m working on my first show home. The Logical Living Home. Built by Joey Corp and the custom organizers of Closet Factory. Yesterday, I had to go Kettler and begin to get an idea of what I wanted to put on the front porch, the back porch and deck area. If you don’t know, Kettler specializes in furniture and accessories for outdoor spaces. They have some awesome stuff and I’m so excited about the cool things I get to choose from!
Well, it just so happens that Kirkland’s has some fabulous outdoor product that I can use to help accessorize those same areas and I want to show you these items that may or may not show up in my outdoor spaces (you know I can’t tell you for sure because it has to be a surprise!):
Paper Lanterns – These light up and look so cool at night. If you have an outdoor umbrella, you can tie them to the arms underneath at varying heights and create some nice night time ambiance. Their bright colors make them festive during the day and at night.
Plastic Goblets – These look great, won’t break and have a lid to protect against spills and bugs. Can’t have Mr. Fly doing the backstroke in your margarita!
Stand Up Wooden Cooler – This is absolutely delicious! It’s stylish, functional and since it’s tall, keeps you and your guests from having to squat down all night to get into a normal cooler.
Cover-Up – Ok, not really an “accessory for decor”, but an accessory for the body. They are cute, festive and quite stylish to cover up when it’s time to step away from the pool or beach. (This picture wouldn’t load because it’s 12MB, but keep an eye out in your store. They are really cute!)
Neck Supporter – This is also not really an accessory for décor, but quite comfortable. I have a beach chair that has a self-cushion at the top and I always flip it back because it pushes my head forward and makes my neck hurt instead of supporting it…so annoying. This would be perfect because it goes behind the neck rather than at my head.
Condiment Holder – This is super cute and fun! ‘Nuff said.
I hope you all get to enjoy some great outdoor get-togethers this summer and that some of these items make it into the festivities! I’m looking forward to it myself. We’ll see which of these make it into my Homearama house…. 😉 Chow! Nina

SUFFOLK, VA– What would happen if a custom closet company designed an entire house? Home buyers are getting a chance to find out, as they visit Closets Factory Hampton Roads “Treasure Chest – The Organization Home” in Suffolk, VA.
The house, sponsored by Closets Factory and built by Joey Corp., won the Tidewater Builders Association’s Fall Homearama Critics’ Choice best Home in Show gold awards. The Suffolk, Virginia Homearama is one of the local Parade of Homes marketing events.
Closets Factory Hampton Road’s winning 2011 Treasure Chest – The Organizational Home is a first of its kind house built around custom home organizational designs.
“Eight years ago when I first bought Closet Factory I would estimate 15% of our community knew our name,” says Closet Factory Hampton Roads president Jeff Bruzzesi. “Today itʼs a much different story. I think because home organization is so important in our daily lives not only do people respond to our message, they seek us out.”
The home features 26 organization solutions that can be crafted specifically for any home. Bruzzesi says research confirms the importance of organization as a key stress reducer. Americans feel the better their home is organized, the better they feel and the more time they can spend with family.
A video tour (below) shows designs from the Closet Factory custom organizers are found in the master and other closets, but youʼll also find their custom organization solutions in rooms like: the dining room china cabinet, breakfast room cupboard, mud room, sitting room in the master suite, master vanities, craft room, linen cabinet, theatre room, kitchen, laundry Center, plus some special custom organization surprises.
“People want to live smarter, more efficiently and that often means just being better organized,” says Bruzzesi. “That trend has lead us to design smarter storage for every room of peopleʼs homes. My hope is that by featuring thoughtful, well planned and practical storage solutions for the way people live through their entire home, we will provide greater insight how Closet Factory can improve the function of anyoneʼs home.”
