May Your Floors Be Merry and Bright!




At Cinderella Carpet One in Salinas our design experts are ready to help you find the perfect floor for the way you live whether you’re completely redecorating or just need a floor to match your existing decor. Check out these tips from our design specialists, just in time for the holidays:

Create a focal point - The holidays are the perfect time to try out a new floor plan. Center your furniture around the fireplace or wherever you hang stockings or stack gifts. If you’re planning a party, arrange furniture in groups to allow for group conversation.

The Fifth Wall - Don’t ignore your floor because it’s the fifth wall to any room! Try out new area rugs to match your holiday decor or choose your festive decorations in a few colors that complement your rugs. Silver, blue, white, red, gold, brown, and green are all great colors to try.

Decorate the whole house- Carry your holiday decor throughout every room. Stand up holiday cards on nightstands in every bedroom. Add scented candles and festive knick-knacks to bathrooms and kitchens. Your guests will be pleasantly surprised!

We recently released a tool to help you prepare for holiday entertaining.  The first is the new fall issue of Beautiful Design Made Simple – a free digital magazine available for Apple iPads and Android tablets.  The Holiday Entertaining issue features articles focused on beautiful design and entertaining tips that are essential during the holiday season.  Features include “Setting the Perfect Table” with designer James M. Davie, “7 Simple Home Décor Tips for Entertaining”, “Hostess Gifts and Wow” and “Mani-Friendly Tips for Hassle Free Holiday designer Entertaining” by Julie Edelman, The Accidental Housewife.


The holiday season is traditionally a busy and stressful time for many people.  Cinderella Carpet One in Salinas is geared towards making the holidays a little less stressful.  Stop in to our showroom today at 6 Rossi Circle and discuss your holiday needs with our design specialists or contact us online.
