Susan Haviland
It’s summertime as Poppy’s Home Décor International continues to celebrate the Love of Home.
So many people enjoy the heat of the summer simply by staying indoors where the cool living is easy. People want and need to be in that special place—that place where they live—the ideal place of comfort and climate control.
Poppy’s goal is for everyone’s home truly to be that special place, for everyone to love the interiors and to love just being there. Home is where the heart is, where we put those things that bring us joy. The things we surround ourselves with convey a statement about ourselves.
Yes, Poppy’s has lovely things, from the amazing custom florals and select jewelry, to unique gift ideas. Poppy’s also has home décor.
If you are struggling to make your home that comfortable good-to-look-at oasis about which you’ve always dreamed, Poppy’s has a large selection of furnishings in all styles and price points. You also will find artwork, a wonderful selection of clocks and wall or table accessories, and lots and lots of other very coveted etceteras.
Most importantly, Poppy’s has a highly creative, very talented interior designer, the vivacious Susan Haviland, who also is the owner of Poppy’s. Susan will come to any size home for a design consultation, a consultation solely orchestrated by the client’s needs and desires, not hers. Simply put, her goal is for you to love your home.
No job is too large or too small for Susan. She can come and redesign your entire house or just redo your bathroom. She will hang pictures for you or create wonderful vignettes for your walls. She can help you choose the perfect wall color, sofa, light fixture, floor tile, bathroom tile, rugs or carpeting. She also can address any and all elements of complete home redecorating, or she merely can rearrange your furniture in a more pleasing manner.
Susan also excels at choosing fabrics and putting complex textiles together to design extraordinarily beautiful window treatments, custom curtains, drapes and valances, as well as gorgeous custom bedding. Susan designs everything herself.
Poppy’s team of highly talented professionals executes her designs. This team consists of artisans, craftsmen and workmen, which includes painters, muralists, tilers, upholsterers, framers and people who build custom furniture, ottomans, poofs and custom headboards. Susan also works with those who make pillows and, of course, the always needed electrician. Poppy’s has everything you need for your complete Love of Home.
Design consultations are $100, $40 of which is to be used as store credit.
Poppy’s also designs lovely fresh flower arrangements for all occasions.
In the very hot Valley of the Sun, Poppy’s is open for lunch six days a week or for High Tea, by reservation only, in Poppy’s very charming and ever-popular Picadilly Square.
Poppy’s invites you to take part in Designer Diva Night, on July 19, at 6:30 p.m. Enjoy dinner, dessert, demonstrations, designs and divas. The cost is $25 per person.
