MADE IN THE USA!





There are many advantages to buying products made in the USA. Purchases of products manufactured in the USA help to keep unemployment rates down. In fact, according to MadeinUSA.com, “each manufacturing job creates 5-8 additional jobs, such as suppliers, accountants, technical support, distributors and retail personnel who sell the products.” Purchasing products made in the USA also assures consumers that those products were made by workers who are treated fairly.  Cinderella Carpet One Floor & Home in Salinas and San Luis Obispo offers many options for consumers looking to purchase products made in the USA.

Many of our customers don’t realize how many options they have for purchasing flooring that is made in the USA.  Carpet 
One has a long history in the USA. According to the Carpet and Rug Institute 98% of all carpet in use in the United States today was manufactured in the United States. The first carpet mill opened in 1797 in Philadelphia, PA. Today, the carpet industry in the United States is heavily concentrated in Georgia where approximately 80% of carpet made in the USA originates. Carpet One Floor & Home works closely with carpet mills in the United States to develop products that meet their customers’ needs.

The newest innovation in carpet is super-soft fibers like those found in Carpet One’s Tigressá Cherish and Innovia Touch products.   New technologies allow for the production of ultra-fine carpet fibers that are still strong enough to stand up to household use. This gives them carpets that are softer than ever before without compromising performance.

Although not quite as common as carpet manufactured in the USA, Cinderella Carpet One also offers many hardwood flooring options that are manufactured in the USA. One of these options is their Invincible hardwood. Invincible products stand up to heavy traffic and families with active lifestyles and feature a 50-year limited warranty.

Cinderella Carpet One’s exclusive line of pink ribbon welcome mats is made in the USA as well. Welcome mats help to protect floors inside the home by trapping dirt that can stain and damage floors. Carpet One Floor & Home’s welcome mats also support the Breast Cancer Research Foundation – 25% of the sale price of each mat sold is donated.

Cinderella Carpet One is a locally owned flooring retailer serving Monterey County and San Luis Obispo area. They are part of North America’s leading floor covering co-op. Their showrooms carry a broad selection of beautiful carpet, wood, laminate, ceramic, vinyl, and area rugs including exclusive brands like Bigelow and Lees. They offer a unique customer experience with the exclusive SelectAFloor merchandising system that simplifies the shopping experience and The Beautiful GuaranteeTM, which guarantees that the customer will be 100% happy with their floor.

Our professional sales staff has the knowledge to help you choose the right floor to match any lifestyle and decor.  Contact us today for your free in-home measurement and consultation.

CINDERELLA INTRODUCES TIGRESSA CHERISH






Cinderella Carpet One Floor & Home in Salinas recently introduced a brand new addition to their popular Tigressá carpet line – Tigressá Cherish. Tigressá carpets are known for their combination of strength and softness, which is a winning combination in flooring.  Our customers want beautiful, soft carpets but they don’t want to compromise performance. Tigressá Cherish has it all.

Tigressá Cherish is the softest Tigressá yet thanks to ultra-fine fibers that are 20% of the thickness of an ordinary carpet fiber. These super soft fibers also have a unique shape that allows them to be bundled more densely in the carpet. This creates a carpet that is stronger and more resilient. Tigressá is also made from Type 6 nylon which means that it is not only stain resistant, but it is also recyclable.
 To introduce our customers to the softest Tigressá yet, Cinderella Carpet One is having a Sweet Dreams promotion through June 30th which offers customers up to 50% off Tigressá and Tigressá Cherish as well as up to 30% off select hard surface flooring. We are also offering extended financing to qualifying Tigressá customers.

The new Tigressá Cherish products are also covered by Cinderella Carpet One's exclusive Beautiful Guarantee which promises that if customers are not 100% satisfied with the way their new floor looks, we will replace it – FREE.

Our customers have been excited about the selection of stylish and soft carpets the new Tigressá Cherish has to offer, And, they’re even more excited by the value during our Sweet Dreams promotion.  To learn more about what makes Tigressá Cherish so soft and yet durable, visit http://www.carpetone.com/tigressa-promo.

DECORATING WITH WINDOW TREATMENTS






We all want to make our homes beautiful, but let’s face it, functionality is important too.  When it comes to your windows, you can definitely have both.  At Cinderella Carpet One in Salinas we can help you  change the whole look and feel of a room by simply changing your window coverings.  Below are some of my favorite trends in window fashions that can turn any window into your new favorite focal point.

•Exposed wood grain in blinds and natural woven shades are joining the ranks of bamboo as popular choices.  They let in diffused light so you can see what is going on outside while providing some privacy.

•Decorative hardware had been dominated by metallic and sparkle for years, but now is returning to wood and natural textures.  Bamboo is also popular for its sustainable, environmentally friendly quality.

•Another trend is to layer shades.  A blackout shade might be installed right next to the window with a sheer shade in front of it. 

•Brighten up a room with cheerful draperies.  As a popular window designer says, “Yellow epitomizes warmth and a sunny outlook toward the future”.

•Stainless steel is making its way throughout the home.  Threading stainless steel and other metallic curtain rods through simple eyelets at the top of the panels to create a simple look has become very popular.

•Instead of sticking with solid fabrics, look for creative patterns.  If your home is more contemporary, use large-scaled, geometric-patterned draperies to create a dramatic focal point.

•Charcoal and slate are the new neutrals and blend beautifully with the metallic trends.

•Window blinds can now be controlled by remote, a light switch or even the Internet.  Just because your windows have gone high-tech, it doesn’t mean they have to be stark and uninviting.  Layering fabrics with high-thread-count cottons is one trend sure to accentuate your windows.
•How about a panel-track system made of fabric or woven-wood panels. These panel-track treatments can look cook contemporary or even European depending on the fabric that is used.

Window treatments often turn into a design challenge or major investment, but if you neglect your windows for another design focus in your home, you’ll be left with a “bare” view.  Whether you find yourself in need of fresh window treatments, or are starting from scratch, Cinderella Carpet One in Salinas can help you dress up your windows.  Contact us today to discuss the current trends in window treatments for your home.
