The Dallas FLOR Store has invited me and all of you MyCRAZYSavings readers to be guest designers at a Dallas’ top creative competition. On Tuesday, April 14 from 5-8, FLOR will host FLOR’s National Design Challenge 2015 and will give us a chance to come to the store and design a sample rug, win your creation and have it added to the upcoming FLOR line for everyone to own as well. How fun is that? They will have more than 400 sample tiles available for us to work with and design our own unique entry.
This is your change to create that perfect rug for your living space!
Robin Wilson, Texas native will also be on hand singing copies of her just released book – Clean Design: Wellness for Your Lifestyle. Press Release below. She shares tips and tricks to detoxify your interior spaces and to help you create a more stylish and healthy home. Being plagued by allergies and asthma since infancy, she has become an expert in Clean Design–creating allergen-reduced home environments that comfort and protect families. Using Wilson’s four principles of design–sustainable, reusable, recyclable, and nontoxic–every room in the home can look sensational and stylish while reducing ”your wheezing and sneezing.”
I love this!
At FLOR, you can create unique, eco-friendly area rugs, runners, and custom creations to fit any personality and every house.
This fun event will take place at the Dallas store located at 4527 McKinney Avenue on Tuesday, April 14th at 5PM!
Don’t live in Dallas? Don’t worry! FLOR will host similar events at 10 FLOR store locations: Austin, New York City, Houston, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Georgetown, San Francisco, and Portland. Wilson will be at all of the events signing copies of her new book and helping to select the top rug designs. The 11 finalists will win an 8 x 10 version of their rug design (retail value $900).
From July 6 through July 15, the 11 finalists’ rugs will be posted on www.FLOR.com/designchallenge where anyone is invited to log on and vote for their favorite design. The top vote-getter will see their rug in a future FLOR line. In addition, 50 percent of the net proceeds from the sale of the rug will go to a charity of the winner’s choice (in collaboration with FLOR). The winner will also have the opportunity to name the rug, which will be on display at select FLOR retail stores across the country.
