She lives in the Morningside-Virginia Highlands neighborhood with her husband, two children and their dog. In her quest to refurbish her nearly 100 year old home, she stumbled upon a business dealing with the outside versus the inside of a home. About 2-1/2 years ago Catherine wanted a wooden window box for her personal residence. Her landscape designer, Andre Theriot, with the Yard Post said "You don't want to put a wooden window box on your house-it will rot in 2 years and you will need to have your carpenter make another one. You should use wrought iron." Since gardening was not one of her hobbies, her experience with wrought iron was less than optimal. The wrought iron planter was not deep enough for the plants to establish a good root system and the plants constantly needed to be watered because the water ran right through the coconut liner. She also rotted the siding on a previous home with a wrought iron window box and her husband, Bill was less than thrilled! Despite Andre's forbidding she was determined to capture that purist look of wood. As she set out on her quest to renovate her nearly 100 year old home in the Morningside-Virginia Highlands area of Atlanta, she started investigating options for windows and stumbled upon a relatively new product, cellular PVC. With a bit of research she found the perfect product that looks just like painted wood but without the rot! In essence, a product that provides the low to no maintenance of plastic without the shiny, fake look! With 2 pieces PVC trim board left over from her home renovation she had her carpenter, Alan Litt, craft her very own window box with decorative corbels. Neighbors strolling down the sidewalk would stop and ask "where did you get your window box?" One neighbor that she had never met took the time to leave her a note complimenting her wooden window box and asked where she might buy one. From those words of inspiration grew a business. In the summer of 2004, in the middle of moving boxes, a partially renovated house and a very active family, Catherine put the wheels in motion for Mind Your Manors, Inc. Mind Your Manors, Inc. is now selling no rot window boxes, planters and garden furniture via retail and e-tail establishments up and down the east coast and growing daily. Catherine, an Interior Designer, recognizes how much simple exterior changes can enhance curb appeal. Adding those "dress maker details"...the "accoutrements" set a person's home apart from another. With the "no rot" material which causes the need for little to no maintenance on the box as well as the special hanging system almost anyone can have a window box. From the retiree with a green thumb but no green space... to the new college graduate who is renting a high rise apartment in the middle of an urban city... to the homeowner who wants another distinguishing texture on their home...to the business owner who wants to create a personal, inviting look to their storefront... Mind Your Manors offers the perfect solution. Catherine is excited to be able to offer an architecturally beautiful product that does not rot to help create beautifully appointed homes. In fact, the exterior of a home should convey the personality of its inhabitants as much as the interior. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Article is written by Catherine Wilson, Interior Designer and owner of Mind Your Manors, Inc. makers of No Rot window boxes and planters.
