Spruce up for Holiday Entertaining!

Can't believe it is already that time of year. If you've been thinking that your home could use a holiday makeover ... why not think of upgrading a favorite piece or adding less expensive dimensions to your design? Revamping something already in your home ... such as a fresh coat of paint or new textiles on a chair ... incorporating some unique pillows with your couch ... adding some vintage glassware ... Upgrading what you already have is a great reutilisation concept and something that Mignonne Décor can help with.

Let Johnelle's vision add some sparkle and avoid those big box stores!

Spring Break!

Does your home need a Spring Break that won't break the bank?

Mignonne has custom services that can help you breathe new life into a tired room or furniture piece.

We have loads of inspiration and creativity to help get that spring project finished. It is surprising how one new feature or some fresh paint can transform a room.

Here's an example of a vintage furniture piece we did a custom look on for one of our clients. This will become the center-piece of their bath (used as a new vanity with a sink on top) and shows how incorporating a vintage furniture item in the place of a standard 'big-box' cabinet can make a world of difference in your design scheme.

Whether it is transforming your piece or one of ours ... or consulting with you on 'relooking' a room ... or having us hunt out the solution for you ... we can help you get that Spring Break in action for affordable terms.

(and PS - don't forget our layaway program!)

À bientôt (see you soon)!

refinishing furniture is recycling, don't ya know?!

as you can probably tell by now, Mignonne is a big fan of refinishing and repurposing furniture. not only is it a wonderful creative outlet for Johnelle, it serves a purpose in the community - supporting sustainability efforts.

choosing vintage, repurposed furniture for your décor needs helps by ...

* reducing the amount of trees harvested for new furniture ... this conserves natural resources and energy!

* reusing existing furniture means one less item in a dump or landfill somewhere!

* recycling by refinishing a piece, transforming it into something new and usable again!

okay, those are all worthwhile contributions. but when you purchase a vintage piece at Mignonne, you can also satisfy your desire for beauty and chic in your living space. Johnelle's art background and flair for customizing furniture means you will have a uniquely beautiful décor piece for your home.

Johnelle can do a custom project for you, whether it is on a furniture element you already have, seeking out a special piece for you, or personalizing something we already have in stock.

Give us a call or stop by the store to discuss further ... and get on board for doing your part to green up our world!
