The home show at Ag hall in Allentown is going on now. Lifetime Services and Ridge Crest Landscaping teamed up together and actually built a house inside Ag Hall. They asked us to furnish it and select the colors and I must say it turned out great. Most exhibitors encompass one booth for their display. Well, Lifetime and Ridgecrest actually took up twenty booths to accomplish their look and to show people what they have to offer. It is truly amazing what they accomplished in the short time they had to get ready for the show.

There is a representative from Lifetime, Ridgecrest and Valley Furniture & Mattress on site to answer any of your questions as you walk through the house and landscaping layout. If you want to see a living room layout with accessories from Valley Furniture & Mattress just stop in. Staff designer Maria Rusciano is there and you can ask her about your space planning needs, color selections, decorating ideas and trends. Valley Furniture & mattress offers complete design services. Maria can come to your home and help you with one room or the entire house.
Your house is a place where YOU live and YOU should feel comfortable in it and love it. That is our goal at Valley Furniture & Mattress and in working with Jerry from Lifetime and Chris from Ridgecrest on this project I know they feel the same way. We all genuinely care about the customer and want them to be happy for years to come.
So, if you want to get out and see a great display and meet some great people stop by the Allentown Ag Hall this Saturday, February 20thuntil 9 and Sunday, February 21st from 10-5. Enjoy!

What Time Is It?
Why does it seem like most of our conversations or things we do revolve around time? I guess it is just our busy lifestyle these days. We have a solution to slow life down….and remember. Grandfather Clocks. Yes, that’s right grandfather clocks. These are not like you remember. We were never able to touch the clocks as a kid, and heaven forbid if we ever asked to wind them. Well, things are different now. Your children and grandchildren can wind today’s clocks without worry, and listen as the chimes mark the memories you create together.
Howard Miller Clocks even provides an heirloom capsule where you can put your record of purchase and hand it down through many generations. They do not take up a lot of space and act as a great accent piece in the room. They are very functional and are a great conversation piece when you have company or gatherings. So come in and listen to the soothing music your new clock will make as you are sitting down and reading a book or relaxing by the fire.

Have you ever been so excited when you bought something that you ripped open the box when you got it home and immediately started putting it together? This process usually starts out very well. You line up all the parts on the floor…. You unfold the directions…. You tell your family to gather round, their TV stand will be ready in a few! About an hour later, you’re still fighting with nuts and bolts and trying to figure out why this isn’t working. This happens all too often nowadays, with furniture from a warehouse, hardware store or superstore. What did you expect from furniture sold alongside fabric, fencing and frozen fruit?
Something I hear quite often as our customers pick up their new furniture is, “What? You already assembled it?” The answer is, “YES!” We assemble everything so you can enjoy your furniture right away. In fact, we open it, assemble it, inspect it, touch up any minor imperfections, make sure everything is working properly, and get rid of all the packaging material before you come to pick up your new furniture. You’re never charged extra for assembly.
We do the same for our deliveries too. We open your new furniture, assemble it, inspect it, touch up any minor imperfections, make sure everything is working properly, and get rid of all the packaging material before we blanket wrap it on our own delivery trucks and bring it to your house and put it exactly where you want it – all with a smile. Oh, and did I mention that we deliver for only $59 locally?
We know how much of a pain furniture shopping can be. We’re doing everything we can to make it easy for you. Feel free to enjoy your new furniture!

Why don’t our homes look like the ones we see on home and garden television shows and in fancy magazines? Well, besides the fact that they are airbrushed as much as a supermodel in a swimsuit issue, these rooms are put together by the pros and accessorized to the nines! Notice how the pictures, lamps, rugs, pillows, and knick knacks bring warmth and personality to the room.
The next time you oooh and aaah over a beautiful room, take time to notice the accessories. Look around your own home. Do you have anything you can rearrange or repurpose to create a similar look? You just might be surprised what you find! You’ll also find inspiration and answers in the real-life room settings at Valley Furniture & Mattress, where each vignette has been carefully coordinated with accessories to make your room sparkle and your personality shine through.
