Choosing the Perfect Wallpaper for Your Home
Are your walls due for a facelift? Whether you’re a wallpaper veteran or this is your first time considering it, we can help you choose the best wallpaper for any room in your home. We carry wallpaper from premium brands like Brewster Home Fashions, and Seabrook and have the knowledge and experience to send you home with a wallpaper you’ll love.
Cues from Color
The right color can make or break the mood and setting of a room. Light shades can make rooms appear more open, and larger while darker shades have the opposite effect. Backgrounds with cool colors, like greens and blues, make spaces appear larger and ceilings higher. If you’re going for a tranquil effect, soft, cool colors will do the trick. For drama, use intense shades of cool colors. Warm tones, like reds and oranges, make rooms feel cozy and can make people feel warmer. Regardless of shade, the more intense the color is the more excitement it gives a room.
Be Playful with Light
In north-facing rooms, dark halls, or any space without windows make use of the light you do have. Choose wallpaper that will reflect light around the room. Patterns with light colors and metallic or iridescent inks will also make the most of available light.
Camouflage Flaws
If you have areas on your walls you’d rather not be displayed, the right wallcovering can help you out. Patterns are your friend in this case. They can be textured or create the look of texture, either of which is great for covering architectural eyesores. Patterns with layered designs, like a monochromatic damask behind a floral print, will also give the illusion of a lovely texture.
Choosing a Style
You want your wallpaper to match the fashion and function of the room it will be hung in. Large patterns and dramatic shades of color are great for more formal rooms. Use smaller motifs that are more open, like polka dots, for a fun, bright look. Also, don’t forget about the impact of decorative borders. If you aren’t sure about committing to a wallcovering in a bold pattern, start with a border, instead. They are available in many different styles and can easily establish a theme in your room.
Using Patterns to Accent
Vertical patterns, especially stripes, emphasize height. This emphasis gives the impression of dignity and formality. Vertical patterns that feature a U or V shape will make ceilings appear to be higher. Horizontal patterns accent width. They tend to evoke a sense of quietness and can make narrow rooms appear wider.
Successful Scales
You may find it helpful to narrow down your wallpaper choices by deciding if you want a large or small-scale pattern. Smaller patterns make a room feel more spacious and airier. Large-scale patterns, on the other hand, make rooms seem cozier and more intimate. Therefore, you often see small-scale patterns in children’s rooms, and large-scale in formal dining rooms or home libraries.
Finding the Right Amount
When it comes to bold colors and patterns, finding the right mix is essential. If you have too little going on visually, your room will seem dull, and boring. It may cause an uncomfortable feeling in guests as room decor is often a topic of conversation. On the other hand, too many different patterns can cause the room to feel restless and agitating. When mixing patterns, or transitioning from one area to another, choose patterns that use the same colors, or a value of the colors, to eliminate a harsh change.

Best Countertops for Families
If you have children, you know life can be hectic and messy. The kitchen is one of the busiest areas in your home, and you want your whole family to be able to enjoy it. Whether you’re building a home or remodeling the kitchen in your current house, we want to help you choose the best countertop for your family. We have put together some great kid-friendly options for you to check out.
Before You Buy
There are a few things to consider prior to purchasing your new countertop.
- The color and design. What “look” you are hoping for.
- Durability & Ease of maintenance
- How well it matches your backsplash and other kitchen features
- Cost: Both upfront and long term
Laminate
Laminate is a top choice of material for homes with children. It is relatively low cost, available in hundreds of patterns and colors, and is very durable. Formica alone has more than 250 pattern/color options for its laminate. Laminate countertops are easy to clean with hot water and regular household cleaner, and they do not need to be sealed. It is scratch, chip, and crack resistant. You can also easily install this material yourself as a weekend warrior project. We carry top brands of laminate countertops including Wilsonart, and Formica.
Solid Surface
A solid surface is another great choice for countertops. It’s a tough, acrylic-like material that comes in a wide array of colors. It fits well in any decor style, from contemporary to classic. The solid surface is non-porous, making it very easy to clean. It is also stain-resistant and can withstand mild impact and low heat. It’s tough to scratch but can be repaired easily with some sanding. Another great feature is that it has a little “give”, so glasses dropped by little hands are less likely to break. Check out DuPont Corian for an amazing solid surface countertop.
Granite
Granite has not been popular for families in the past, but new sealant technology is changing that. When properly sealed, granite countertops resist staining and are very easy to clean. No harsh chemicals are necessary to protect your children from germs. Granite is also very heat resistant for those times when you must set a hot item on the counter to rescue a kid from the top of the table.
Silestone
Silestone is a quartz surface that has been treated to combine beautiful quartz textures with extraordinary performance. It is also the only countertop with bacteriostatic protection to ensure the most hygienic food preparation surfaces, perfect for kids who just can’t wait to snag a snack off the counter.

When you’re ready to pick a family-friendly surface for your countertop, allow us to be of assistance.

Choosing the Right Flooring for Your Home
Choosing the right flooring material for your home is an important decision. Whether you’re replacing the floor of a single room or putting down new floors throughout your home, making the right choice can seem overwhelming. You will need flooring that works best for your home, family, and style of daily living. We’ve put together a list of tips to help you choose the perfect floor.
Consider the Room
There are no hard and fast rules about what type of flooring should go in a room, but certain styles are better equipped for certain rooms. What will the room be used for? A playroom or area where a significant amount of time will be spent on the floor may call for carpet or a softer hard floor, like vinyl. Do you want the room to feel cozy or more formal? These are just a couple of things to think about when designing your floor.
Your Lifestyle
What is your home like on a day-to-day basis? If you have pets or kids you will likely want scratch-resistant floorings, such as vinyl or laminate. You’ll need to think about how much time you have to expend on cleaning and maintaining your floors. Carpets hold on to dirt and allergens and need to be vacuumed several times a week and period shampooing which can take up an entire day.
Your Budget
Discussing finances is a necessity when making a major purchase for your home. You don’t want to settle for a floor you dislike but you also don’t want to break the bank. The professionals at Richmond Decorating can help you find a floor you love at a price you like. Be sure to factor in the cost of installation, as well.
Your Priorities
The perfect floor does not exist, but you can get pretty close when your family decides on which floors meet your expectations most closely. Comfort, durability, and the amount of routine maintenance are the most frequently considered aspects when purchasing flooring. There’s nothing quite like the feel of plush carpet on bare feet, and it’s great for helping protect little ones who are learning to walk. Carpet is also quick to show wear, and lighter colors can appear dingy over time. High-traffic areas of your home are best suited for tile, vinyl, or laminate flooring. Rooms that incur moisture, such as bathrooms and laundry rooms would benefit from a waterproof type of flooring. Routine maintenance is more labor-intensive with the carpet but hardwood floors require a fair amount of preventative maintenance to protect from scratches and scuffs.
Now that you what to take into consideration we invite you to visit us at one of our two convenient locations in Richmond and Glen Allen, Virginia. You can also request a quote on our website. We are happy to serve the areas of Henrico, Manakin-Sabot, Midlothian, Mosley, and Chesterfield, VA, and look forward to having you become a satisfied customer.

Create and Customize Out-Of-This-World Carpets with Mohawk Flooring
Believe it or not, something as simple as carpeting can revolutionize the interior of your home, adding beauty and style to every room. With carpets from Mohawk Flooring, you will get notable durability, making them a worry-free investment. We understand carpet choices are vast and can be overwhelming, so our experts will use their knowledge and expertise to guide you through the entire process, answering any questions or concerns you might have. Make a statement with your carpets by using bold colors and dramatic textures or lay it low and effectively cover your floors with grays and neutrals. No matter the design you choose, you will always receive the highest level of functionality.
How to choose the right carpet?
Discovering the ideal carpet for your space and lifestyle can be difficult, but with many years of experience in this industry, we have a few tips to help you out! Start by asking yourself four simple questions:
- How will the room be used?
- What is the mood for the room and your home?
- Is it a formal or casual space?
- Is it high traffic or minimal traffic area?
After answering those questions, evaluate the construction and textures of carpets that best suit the answers. When selecting a carpet is it important to look at the construction of the carpet which plays a huge role in the entire performance of the carpet. Looped carpet is dense and low profile and low maintenance. Patterned construction provides varying loops and cuts that are low-profile and handles high traffic well. The popular texture manufacturing grants long crimped yarns for a casual feel and super-soft feel. The frieze/twist design presents high twisted yarns for a relaxed feel and visual interest and a springy feel.
Carpets by Mohawk Flooring
We are confident in the practicality and visual appeal of all the products we represent. Mohawk Flooring’s Carpet options are top-notch and come in a wide variety, sure to fit every household and lifestyle. After picking the material, select between hundreds of colors and patterns from bold and dramatic to soft and lush. Mohawk Carpets set themselves apart with three main qualities depending on the particular space:
1. Stain-Resistance
The Scotchgard™ protected polyester layer is fiber-washed so you never have to stress over spills, for your carpet will always appear new. We recommend this carpet for quiet or social spaces with moderate to low traffic like bedrooms, offices, and TV rooms.
2. Wear and Tear Resistant
This line of carpet is a perfect match for households with pets and kids. The resilient nylon fiber actively fights against crushing and matting withstanding even the heaviest traffic. Because of this, they are making them great fits for areas that see a lot of action, like living rooms, hallways, stairs, and playrooms.
3. Two-in-One
The Triexta Fiber option is both stains and wears resistant. Their excellent durability and built-in stain and soil resistance make them seriously perfect for every space, but especially high traffic areas like dining rooms. This carpet maintains the softness while also preventing stains and wear.

A Beginner’s Guide to Cabinetry: How to Create the Perfect Kraftmaid Wood Cabinets for your Home
We understand that cabinets can make or break the entire aesthetic of your home. Because there is an array of cabinetry on the market, choosing the right fit for your home can be overwhelming. We aim to educate you on all the unique styles and finishes of Kraftmaid Wood Cabinets, so you feel confident in your design choices.
Step 1: Room Selection
Kraftmaid Wood Cabinets are primarily used in kitchens or bathrooms where they double as storage areas and decorative pieces caressed with intentional detail. However, you don’t have to limit yourself to these typical areas. These cabinets are universal, suitable for any room in your home.
Step 2: The Woods
Just like any other aspect of interior design, there are several customizable choices. For cabinets, you must start but selecting the wood to use for your Kraftmaid Wood Cabinets, keeping in mind that each adds its inherent personality. Our artisanal professionals work with you to make sure these cabinets mesh seamlessly with the design you have in mind.
Alder: The Industrial Medium
Have a home with a more rustic, industrial soul? The Alder wood option features robustness ranging from pale pink to deep brown, detailed with knotholes, burls, and mineral streaks for the look of intentional craftiness.
Cherry: The Deep Reddish
Mirroring the likeness of a cherry, the Cherry woods’ reddish-brown color is married with a smooth, straight grain, adding depth to any room.
Maple: The Sweet & Creamy
The Maple wood is defined by its off-white color swirled with golden tones. Sweet like maple syrup, this wood offers a consistent, fine grain for smoothness and uniformity.
Hickory: The Dramatic
Just like the bold taste of hickory, the Hickory wood candidate compliments any room with pronounced random grain patterns, burls, and knots.
Oak: The Traditionalist
Akin to the classic Oaktree, the Oakwood cabinet selection infuses a wavy-grained rich range of browns popular in traditional styles.
As always, when working with natural materials, it is important to remember that the wood you choose is ever-changing. For most, this aged wood result is coveted.
Step 3: Finish off Nicely
The finishes to your Kraftmaid Wood Cabinets are the biggest influence on their overall look. Each product is finished using Durakraft™ Plus Finishing System, a 14-step layering process ideal for durability.
Paint
Finishing your cabinets with paint is a great way to cover the natural grain wood and add uniformity to your home. Layered with three coats of hand-applied, catalyzed enamel paint, your cabinets’ look will be long-lasting. Want a color we don’t have? We offer you the ability to select any paint on the market with our ColorMatch™ system and to customize any color by adding hand-painted highlights for your charm.
Translucent
Get the pop of paint coloring while retaining the beauty of the natural wood textures. The translucent finish offers your room subtle sleekness and texture. It is one of our many finishes that utilizes the Suede DuraKraft™ top coat for a matte finish.
Stains
The only kind of stains you want on your cabinets! The stain finishes we offer are one of the most popular, as we hand rub each door, a feature that is uniquely us. The stains range from subtle to dramatically brushed, then flooded with glaze, and hand-highlighted, making no two doors the same.
Distress
Get a timeless distressed feel without the stress! Distress finishes mimic coveted dents, dings, and imperfections of reclaimed wood. The look of these features is further dramatized by a darkening stain and softer, matte topcoat.
Vintage
Charm any home with the look of a well-loved cabinet. We over-sand, exposing the natural wood underneath, creating a vibrant heirloom effect.
Weathered
Get the wear and tear vibe without the actual damage. Your cabinets will look like they’ve been exposed to the elements by using a dry brush technique. The soft, matte finish enhances the linear accents for a timeworn appearance.
Aged
Aging your new cabinets by distressing and over-sanding the wood, opens up their antique character. A glaze is then poured over for a crisp, clean finish evoking a rustic personality.
Conclusion
For more information on all of our products and services, please visit us at Richmond Decorating. We offer you endless information about how to make your home perfect. We have locations in both Richmond and Glen Allen, Virginia but proudly serve Henrico, Manakin-Sabot, Midlothian, Mosley, and Chesterfield.

Upgrading Your Sunroom with Natural Flooring
During the upcoming summer, or even just on sunny days, you might find yourself spending most of your time in your sunroom or patio. The more time you spend in these spaces, the more you are aware of the improvements you could make to upgrade the design. When you’re revamping your sunroom or patio, you should start with the foundation of the room: the flooring. The flooring you choose for a sunroom or covered patio can set the stage for whichever vibe you want to create. With tile, stone, and hardwood flooring from Richmond Decorating, you can create a natural feel with durable options.
As a sort of gateway connecting the inside of your home with the outdoors, the interior design concept for your sunroom will most likely include natural materials and finishes. You can build the foundation for this concept easily with natural hardwood or stone flooring. From there, you can customize and choose your favorite type to make the space your own.
There are two main types of hardwood flooring. The first is one hundred percent solid wood, often called solid hardwood. This natural material needs to be attached to a subfloor, and it is very sensitive to temperature changes and moisture. This means if you want a natural wood look in your sunroom, you might want to avoid solid hardwood. On the other engineered hardwood consists of multiple layers of solid wood put together in a cross-ply construction. This makes the material more resistant to varying conditions and can be more easily installed in a variety of spaces since it can be stapled, glued or just floated.
Of course, not all natural woods are the same. Some are soft and supple, while others are stiff and firm. When it comes to choosing a natural hardwood for your flooring, you need to consider the traffic and environment of the room. Since your sunroom is often exposed to different temperatures, you should consider a harder wood. Oak, ash, and maple are popular choices that look great while offering extra durability.
While hardwood flooring can last in a busy space, tile and stone options often offer a little more peace of mind when it comes to durability. With a variety of types, you can choose a natural sunroom vibe or an elegant, upscale space. Porcelain and granite flooring are excellent options for a busy space such as a sunroom. Both styles are durable, and porcelain’s density makes it a great option that can withstand a lot of moisture. For an upscale, high-class design, you can opt for marble flooring which is known for its durability and strength. Both granite and marble offer the added benefit of natural colors that can fit an assortment of designs.
As you spend more time in your sunroom taking advantage of the warmth and brightness of summer, you want to feel comfortable and happy with your space. By upgrading your sunroom or patio with flooring from Richmond Decorating, you can build a foundation for a natural vibe. Located in Richmond and Glen Allen, Virginia, we serve the surrounding area including The Fan, The West End, and the southside of Richmond. Contact us today to schedule a consultation!

Hardwood Floors
When you come into our gallery, one of our experts will help you understand all of your hardwood flooring options and all of the important things to consider when making your final decision. A few things of note include hardwood type, species, color, width, edge detail, finish, and installation. Choosing a hardwood type most importantly depends on the kind of subfloor in your home. Our 100% solid wood option is best for a wooden subfloor, while our engineered hardwood is a good option for most subfloors. Always take this into consideration as you want the best bonding possible between the subfloor and hardwood.
Consider the type of species of hardwood you want in your home as they vary in durability and appearance. Color is also an incredibly important decision regarding the lighting conditions of your home. Board width is more a design choice than anything, so definitely make sure to consider how the size of planks will fit within the design of your home. Edge width, finish, and installation are all more design choices regarding how they’ll fit into the entire design of your home. It’s your home, so let’s design it well!
