Atlanta Market 2018

We took a trip to Atlanta, Georgia

for the Atlanta America's Mart for showroom inspiration and new products.

  

One of the joys of a family business is being able to work together, and being able to take our family along on this trip was such a fun treat.  We located a lovely family home via Airbnb to host us. 

Quite literally such a fabulous house the boys wanted to go "home" instead of exploring the city more. We would highly recommend a stay at The Atlanta Family Home. 

 Having the family in town while at Market made it harder to go and work, but it was so great to get to be with them mornings and evenings. 

We didn't get too many photos actually taken, but displays were looking fabulous! We are looking for ways to successfully implement our favorite features into our location. 

 We look forward to adding this stately collection of pottery for our "Home for the Holidays" collection this fall and winter. 

And are already working on ideas for our spring showroom only 6 months away! :) 

Caring for your Hardwood Furniture

All of our furniture is made of quality hardwood. You don't need to be obsessive to take care of hardwood furniture, you only need to care.

Here are several tips for keeping your furniture looking fine for generations.

Humidity Control

- Keep the humidity in your home

  between 40%-60%.

Water Resistant

- Wipe up those spills and condensation,
  don't allow moisture to sit on your
  furniture for an extended period of time.

Water Based Cleaner 

- Keep the chemicals away.
  We suggest wiping your furniture
  with a clean damp cloth and occasionally,
  a water based cleaner and polish.
  We sell our favorite, ask us for a sample.

You will find natural variations on all your furniture purchased at Kings,

such as knots where tree branches grew.

Character markings do not affect the integrity of your furniture

but prove the use of genuine hardwood, with all its charming irregularities.

White Birthday Party

We celebrated Mrs. King's 60th birthday with a white party with a few friends.  

A white party concept is relatively simple, you decorate with white and base food choices around the color scheme.  When you send out invitations let the guests know that they should wear white to party. You could chose to give prizes to the person wearing the most white clothing.

It was so festive seeing so much white contrasting the beautiful woodland backdrop.
