Hello everyone. Welcome to Dear Alice. Today we are starting a new series. This was a series at

Suzanne Hall was something that just gets her goat on every project that we're doing. There's these

little overlooked design details and we're constantly adding them into the projects that we're doing

and we thought, should we just tell everybody? Should we just give away the keys to the kingdom? Our closest friends. Yes. So we're doing it.

So this new series is called Overlook Design Details. And today we're going to be starting outside.

Yeah, just a couple little things as I've noticed on exteriors. Again, we're interior designers.

We're consulting on the exterior finishes, window grids, things like but there are sometimes we're brought in a little bit too late that then we can't correct some of these details that should have been thought about so we're just going to give you high level exterior on a couple of things that should be always considered especially if you're embarking on a new build or you're remodeling and then we'll get most of the

series is just going to be on interior details and so we're just going to take off little bite-sized

portions and share it with our friends yes so we'll be hitting window grids the front door and we're

going to talk about your thresholds and flooring we've got a question that came in that goes perfectly with questions

about flooring directions and hardwood floors and how to lay them. So we're going to be addressing

all of that in this episode. Guys, this is going to be such a fun series. I think so too. I'm so excited

to be sharing all this information with you, especially if you're embarking on a new build or a

remodel. just getting these little

details in there just makes it feel like a well-built home. Before we jump into today's episode,

we want to remind you that we have a free design service available called Home Furnishing Design.

Our designers are available to help you find new furniture, get that perfect rug, know what size to get,

and so much more. And since the service is free, you can spend your entire budget on furnishing your room. We also have our

very best sale going on right now. So if you hurry, you can get in with a designer and get up to

25% off the items you purchase for your room. All you have to do is go to our website,

go to the design services tab, fill out the form, and a designer will reach out to you within 24 hours. Right. And we all want to know what not to do. It's probably like a top Google of what not to wear, what not to do in a house. So we're going to be sharing those things that will naturally come up because we've seen them and we don't want you to do it.

Yes.
