African-American Home Décor Website Launches Blog

African-American Home Décor Website Launches Blog

Debuting in October 2008, NewAfricanAmericanStore. com has successfully been able to combine a rich cultural history with commerce. Recently, the site's founder started a new educational blog.

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) May 7, 2009

When it comes to decorating the home, the right accent pieces can create a welcoming and warm environment. Great pieces can also reflect a strong sense of culture and heritage. The coming together of these ideals is what entrepreneur, Valerie Kelly, had in mind when she started www. NewAfricanAmericanStore. com in October 2008.

"I've always been interested and intrigued with African-American art," began Kelly. "I wanted to share a bit of my background and history with people who would also find it intriguing."

Kelly's e-store has a host of varied artwork from statues to traditional masks to vases, everything that is needed to complete the overall aesthetic of a home can be found on NewAfricanAmericanStore. com.

Despite the relatively freshness of the web store, Kelly has been able to gather quite a selection and she's still looking to add more to her catalog.

"I've been contemplating on adding a few new things such as clothing, fabrics and jewelry, but I really don't want to stray away from the art aspect of the site," said Kelly.

One new aspect that Kelly has followed through with is a cultural blog, www. AfricanArtGuru. com.

"The blog will run the gamut of different topics and posts, whether it's African proverbs, traditional recipes or information about the artists who create the art that I feature on my site," Kelly said.

"The key thing is that I want people to be able to learn something new after they've read the blog," she continued.

The kind of elegance, beauty and culture significance that is captured in NewAfricanAmericanStore. com can't be replicated in any department store or shopping mall. There's something to be said about having great looking home décor in the home, but it's even better when accent pieces transcend being simply décor and have a historical impact.
