Bring Warmth Into Your Home

The past few days have finally brought the cold chill of winter.  Now is the time to come inside and enjoy the warmth of our homes.  Allow Marc Williams Furniture to offer suggestions on how to make your house a beautifully warm home.

Our first suggestion is to use warm colors when decorating.  Fire means warmth so consider using fire-hued tones such as gold, red, and orange or even softer hues, such as yellow, brick, or rust.  These warm colors will look great in accessories throughout your home.

In keeping with the theme of fire bringing warmth into your home, why not use actual fire?  Light a fire in a fireplace or light candles on a mantel, coffee table, or end table.  The flames will bring warmth as well as a feeling of intimacy.

Cold feet make the whole the body cold.  Cover your hardwood floors with area rugs.  Again, choosing warm hues will conjure a feeling of warmth. Sense of smell can also add warmth.  Consider using candles or spray with the scent of cinnamon, apple, or pine.

Nothing evokes a feeling of warmth and intimacy like snuggling under a nice warm throw.  Place blankets close to chairs and sofas.  Arrange baskets of pine cones on tables and add pillows to chairs and sofas.  Have family activities easily accessible to encourage spending time together.  Keep family albums, cards, and board games near the sofas.

It is a wonderful time of year to enjoy your home.  Make it warm and inviting and enjoy the relaxation it can offer.

The River Walk, Patchogue, NY


Marc Williams Furniture is proud to announce that we have been chosen to design the models for the beautiful new River Walk condominiums being developed in Patchogue, NY.


The River Walk will be a 163 condominium community, that will include 110 condos with upper/lower units, 36 three-bedroom town homes, and 17 two-bedroom homes in 18 different buildings. Plans include The Riverwalk, Viewing Platforms, Garden Gazebo, and Green Belt connecting to other new developments in the area.  The River Walk site is half a block from the Patchogue station of the Long Island Rail Road, which makes it a prime example of the transit-oriented development that planners say is so sorely needed on the Island.  It is close to shopping, restaurants, and the performing arts theater on Main Street, and not far from the ferry to Watch Hill and Davis Park on the Fire Island National Seashore.  It is also down the block from the recently opened 54,000 square foot Y.M.C.A. of Long Island.  The units are available with estimated prices from $290,000 to $375,000.

Marc Williams Furniture welcomes you to come view The River Walk, tour the models and see our beautiful interior designs.
