We have just secured a trade agreement with Pier 1 to allow Argent Decor to purchase furniture and home decor items at a discount. I am super-excited about this one for the little items - knick knacks, table settings, etc. They always have a great selection at affordable prices!
Have a great weekend!

OPENING JULY '09 - "ARGENT DECOR - THE STORE" IN DOWNTOWN SCOTTSDALE!
We are opening soon, but wanted to let everyone know of one of our "Grand Opening" specials!
We just secured special pricing on silk banana trees - I have used these in a lot of my home staging and vacation home installs. They are SO lifelike, people go to touch them to check all the time!
These trees come in 8' and 9' heights - that measurement is based on the leaves sticking up, not canopied out like the photo to the left. If you want it to look like the one on the left, know that canopying out the leaves drops the height by about 1'.
For our Grand Opening Specials, the prices are:
8' Banana Tree: $119 + tax
9' Banana Tree: $139 + tax
These trees make great housewarming or closing gifts, and sell for $159 and $189 respectively at another local furniture store!
Please call in your pre-order to 602-774-2294. If you would like more info, feel free to e-mail Sharon@ArgentDecor.com. Delivery is available for a small charge.

It was a long, LONG weekend, but we essentially finished the Maricopa vacation home installation! The clients requested we finish the install by Sunday when they left, starting Friday morning - and it's a 2300 sf house!
In the end, we have just a few items to deliver; a couch was damaged, and a desk went MIA. I am no longer going to use the furniture source I used on this one, for that very reason! With "Argent Decor - The Store" opening this month, I don't have to - I can go factory-direct.
The clients were SUPER cool! It was two couples from Edmonton AB that went in on the home together. They were so much fun; we stood around and talked almost as much as we worked! ;)
I am still recovering from the marathon, but am so proud we got it done!

The cuckoo clock to the left is symbolic in TWO ways this time:
1. Am I cuckoo?
2. Clock is tickin'!
I have an install in Maricopa AZthis weekend for a vacation home. What started out as a pretty simple "I like this theme" ballooned into "I want to do a custom package, select all my pieces, and I'm on a super-budget - and can you do the full install in a week?". I agreed, under the premise that the client sign off on all selections and send payment 3 wks in advance. This allows for the custom-selected furniture to arrive, and gives me time to "pre-shop" for accessories and decor in a non-standard theme.
Naturally, it took far too long to select pieces, make additions, budget revisions, etc - so payment arrived 7/3. Closing is 7/16 at 4PM. The client goes back to Edmonton on Sunday, and wants all 2300 sf of their Fulton Home furnished before they leave - 3 bedrooms, den, formal living and dining, family room, kitchen. They omitted some of the small stuff (kitchenwares), some of the stuff I wish they had kept (silk plants!), but added 2" blinds AND window treatments.
With roughly 48 hours to complete furnishing and decorating a 2300+ sf home, I feel like I should have a reality TV show on Home & Garden Network (HGTV)! HGTV, I am ready for my close-up! ;)

OPENING JULY '09 - "ARGENT DECOR - THE STORE" IN DOWNTOWN SCOTTSDALE!
GREAT NEWS in Argent Decor land today! I no longer have to side with Tom Petty re: "The Waiting is the Hardest Part" from my blog the other day!
We were awarded the model unit install at the "Retirement Resort"! Still waiting to hear on the patio install; may be another 2 weeks, so I get to sweat that one out.... I am amazed that I beat out their staff designer, plus at least one other designer's bid, but so proud that I did!

ARGENT DECOR, THE STORE OPENS FALL '09 IN OLD TOWN SCOTTSDALE!
Argent Decor is a full-service furnishing company for homes and condos in the greater Phoenix area. We specialize in vacation homes, model homes, second homes, furnished rental units, hospice/long-term care homes, and home staging. Our packages range from classic, affordable designs up to custom home-caliber pieces - let us know your budget and tastes, and we will gladly work within your parameters!
Since we are not affiliated with one particular furniture store, we can use pieces from a variety of sources and shop around for the best possible prices. We also have wholesale accounts with a number of vendors, and are able to pass those savings on to our clients!
Our goal is to deliver turn-key homes - everything is included in our home furnishing 
packages - not just the furniture! All packages include:
Every detail is thought of; all you need to bring is your toothbrush!

We are a proud member of Local First Arizona, a group dedicated to promoting locally-owned businesses - thus keeping tax revenue in Arizona!
Argent Decor furnishes vacation homes and condos in the greater Phoenix metro area, including: Scottsdale, Tempe, Fountain Hills, Paradise Valley, Arcadia, Desert Ridge, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Ahwatukee, Cave Creek, Carefree, Anthem, Peoria, Surprise, Sun City and Sun City West, Glendale, Avondale, Goodyear and Buckeye. Our services are also available in Pinal County, including Maricopa, Queen Creek, and Gold Canyon.
All of our furniture and decoration items are BRAND NEW - we NEVER install reupholstered or used furnishings! Just because this is your vacation home doesn't mean it needs to be filled with hodge-podge, musty old furniture. We choose timeless pieces and coordinate them to give an incredible presentation at an affordable cost.
To save time, we have pre-arranged packages in themes - Beach Cottage, Rustic Mexico, Spa Retreat, Tuscan Sun, and Uptown Classic. Don't see what your heart (and home!) desires within these packages? Not a problem! We can customize one to your tastes, and e-mail you options to approve!

We also offer individual plants and decoration pieces - please ask! They make great closing gifts!
Trying to sell your home or condo after you've moved out? Statistics show furnished homes - even if they are simply staged to look as though they are still lived in - sell much faster and show much better than vacant homes. Contact Argent Decor for a home staging consultation - we'd be happy to help improve your odds of a fast sale in this trying market!
