Are You Tariffied? Why Starting Your Home Project Now Could Save You Later

If you’ve been considering a home update, here’s a little industry news you shouldn’t ignore…tariffs are going up, and it’s about to impact the cost of home furnishings across the board.

Starting May 1st, several of our trusted décor and furniture partners have announced price increases due to new tariffs on imported goods. These increases affect everything from sofas and side tables to hardware, lighting, textiles, and wall finishes. While that may sound like just a “designer problem,” it has a real trickle-down effect, especially on design and procurement budgets.

What Does That Mean for You?

Whether you’re planning a full home redesign or just upgrading a few rooms, higher prices for materials = higher total project costs. What might’ve cost $5,000 in furnishings a month ago could now be closer to $6,000 or more. Shipping delays, limited inventory, and rising labor costs can also pile on if you wait too long.

So if you’ve been “thinking about it,” this is your nudge:

As your trusted Designer, I assure you that now’s the time to act before costs climb even higher.

Exclusive Flash Sales & Limited Discounts

The good news? Some of our brand partners are offering deep discounts right now acknowledging that there will be big hits and delays as things progress. If you’ve had your eye on a signature piece, this is a rare chance to invest in quality pieces for less. But these deals won’t last long, and once May 1st hits, the prices are expected to rise across the board.
