I am really excited to share with you our first ever photo shoot video.  Watch now for a behind the scenes look at the making of our Back to School 2011 catalog.  We took these photos on a chilly January day in our picturesque downtown Stuart.  The girls had a great time and I think it definitely showed in the end result.  Take a couple minutes to watch and let me know what you think!

Psst – Did you know that we are now offering consumer catalogs?!  You can fill out a RIU Catalog Request form on our website.  We’ll be sending them out towards the middle of June.

My name is Alex: and I have an obsession I would like to share with you all.  I am obsessed with online home decor blogs, e-zines, etc…  I just can’t get enough of viewing inspiring spaces.  I know that I am in good company here at RIU HQ – as a few others here also share this passion.  Maybe its the “Room” in our name but to me there is just nothing like looking at adorably styled room decor images!  For today’s post I wanted to share with you one of my favorite sources for said inspiring imagery:  Lonny Magazine – which just got a whole new website re-design – now making the magazine both iPhone and iPad friendly!!  They also updated their website to include a whole slew of fun things like: decorating tips, editors picks, and more.  If you haven’t checked out the September issue – it is not to be missed!  Click on the cover below and it will take you to the e-Zine!  What are your favorite go-to’s for home decor inspiration?  I’d love to know!
