Talk about an evening to remember! Last night we had the double honor of both being the Presenting Sponsor of the DSM Home Design Awards put on by DSM Magazine of Business Publications Corporation, Inc and taking a gold medal in the “Décor - Primary Bedroom” category! The DSM Home Design Awards celebrate the best in interior and landscape design, architecture, building and more in Greater Des Moines. As the largest furniture retailer in Iowa, we were proud to support and honor the efforts of Des Moines area designers, stagers, builders and more! "Primary bedrooms are some of the best rooms to truly express creativity and have fun when it comes to design," said Sue Espinosa, director of visual display here at Homemakers Furniture, Mattresses & Accessories, speaking about our winning submission. The primary bedroom featured small elements of flair, like a root sculpture and slatted wood paneling, elevating the space from "bedroom" to "sophisticated suite." The room's industrial-style architecture was further softened into a relaxing, organic space using upholstered furniture, layered bedding, curved objects, asymmetrical pieces and unique lighting. Congratulations to all the winners and a huge thank you to DSM Magazine for a wonderful evening!??

Happy Holidays from the Homemakers Furniture Marketing & E-commerce team??wishing you a very merry holiday season. We are so grateful to have been able to help you make your house a home for over 50 years.

We recently implemented digital price tags from Pricer throughout our showroom. These new tags have improved: Customer experience - Customers are guaranteed to see the best price and most up-to-date product information, like availability. This allows customers to have fewer interactions with our sales team if so desired. Efficiency - Staff can now update product information from a computer instead of manually changing tags across our 215,000-square-foot showroom. Sustainability - The digital tags are powered by a long-lasting battery (a market-leading 5 years!) and will significantly reduce paper and power usage. We are excited to be taking these steps to improve both the shopping experience and store performance. Come check them out!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the 2024 Urbandale Uplift Project! Watch the recap video, and plan to join us next year! www.urbandale.org/up

Yesterday we partnered with Nebraska Furniture Mart to help the City of Urbandale?and the Urbandale Chamber of Commerce with the 2024 Urbandale Uplift Project. We had an amazing time helping landscape Living History Farms with our sister store! The Urbandale Uplift Project is an opportunity for local businesses to engage and give back to the community by donating their time to help non-profit organizations, parks, and service providers in Urbandale. Homemakers is proud to be a sponsor of this amazing event which allows our employees the opportunity to get involved in the community and connect with other Urbandale businesses. At Homemakers, we are dedicated to giving back to the community and helping others in need.??

Today, we donated cardboard to YSS’s Reggie’s Sleepout. Reggie’s Sleepout raises awareness for homelessness by having volunteers spend a night sleeping outside at Drake Stadium in boxes, tents, or sleeping bags. This is to show people what it is like to not have a home for one night and experience the tragedy of homelessness. Homemakers is committed to giving back to the community and are honored to support YSS and all the work they accomplish! While we recycle most of our cardboard, it was nice to be able to use it to make an impact on an important organization.

Our team had the opportunity to dress casual today to show their support for breast cancer awareness when they donated to Bras for the Cause: Nonprofit 501(c)(3) Foundation. We are honored to have been able to support this Iowa-based organization for all that they do to raise awareness in the community.?

We are delighted to welcome Derek Blessen to our team as our new Director of Sales! Derek B. comes to Hm with a strong background in sales, and will be instrumental in advancing our initiatives. We are excited to have him on board and look forward to the impact he'll make. Welcome, Derek!
