Happy New Year 2024!

This blog aims to showcase what we do and the products we carry to enhance your home. Over the years, we have transformed what we offer based on our client's needs, and as the years have gone by, that has changed, and I aim to showcase that! Marcia Cotter started Decorative Interiors 49 years ago, dreaming of providing the Lakes Region with paint and wallpaper. Marcia created Decorative Interiors out of the need to provide a source for interior finishes and décor. As time has gone on, Decorative Interiors has developed into offerings that reflect what our clients need and deliver quality products.

So now, in 2024, we specify the paint of Sherwin Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Farrow & Ball to enhance your home.

In the last year, we installed wallcovering on walls for Zoom meetings, texture for an accent wall in a dining room, and a large-scale graphic metallic accent wall for a professional office reception. So, a lot has changed and continues to change! But what has remained is our dedication to selecting the perfect paint or wallcovering for a space or accent wall tailored to your project.

Now, we are so much more than specifying paint and wallcovering - we specialize in kitchen and bathroom design, flooring, cabinets, countertops, window treatments, and custom window treatments, and we also assist with plumbing and lighting specifications.

Let us be your guide in this vast world of interiors. There is much more to Decorative Interiors than you think you know! (Check out our Trade Partners Page for a few of our vendors)

A few months ago, someone told me, "Decorative Interiors is like an elevated box store. All I see is tile, window treatments, and flooring. Why shop with you and not at a box store?" I listened to those comments and felt quite the opposite -for me, when I shop at the box stores, it lacks the connection to anyone personally, and like I hate asking for directions, I hate asking for help. The experience with our clients is that we help guide them through the process so they feel confident in their decisions. We work together as a team through selections, so Decorative Interiors is unlike a box store. As my mother has been saying for over 20 years, our aim is that "we make it easy" for our clients to create the best designs for them, and it is a collaboration. We don't design for us. We create for you and your family.

We are excited to share how we can help you navigate the interiors of new construction and renovation as we close in on our 50th year! Wow, that is wild to write!

Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

When my brother worked at Decorative Interiors he designed this tile installation for our entry using Genrose tile porcelain travertine tile with an absolute black polished granite tile of the Decorative Interiors interpretation of the Fleur-De-Lis - pictured with these olive colored Valentino shoes because I love fabulous shoes I feel is a great way to enter this blog journey - S.
