What can we say? Sometimes even the most clever designers get stuck and need a jolt of inspiration. Here at the offices of The Home Stylist what we love most about summer is the chance to get out, see what’s going on in our area and re-ignite our imaginations . From Garden Walks and Architectural Tours to a simple stroll around the neighborhood, when we need a little inspiration indoors, our first step is to head OUTDOORS!

For our Western New York clients, we’d like to encourage you to attend Buffalo Garden Walks, one of the largest outdoor events of it’s kind. Held the last weekend of July, this self-guided tour takes you through over 300 gardens in the Western New York. And the best part? It’s free! You know how much we love that word around here! So get out, enjoy the sunshine and get a little outdoor living inspiration! For more information, check out their website www.gardenwalkbuffalo.com

Not in Western New York? Not a problem! Loads of cities have caught the gaden walk fever, check your local paper for upcoming events. And if all else fails, make up a tour of your own! Who knows, next year it may your outdoor tour we’re turning to for inspiration!
