Décor News Now to launch in January 2021

Home News Now announced plans for the launch of Décor News Now, a comprehensive source for news, trends and product introductions in the decorative accessories, accent furniture, rugs, lamps/lighting, wall décor, tabletop, garden decor and home textiles categories.

HNN staffer Susan Dickenson will serve as Décor News Now’s editor-in-chief.

In the coming weeks, Dickenson will develop Décor News Now with category coverage on the HNN site, Facebook and Instagram, leading up to a full brand launch in January 2021.

Manufacturers and suppliers may begin submitting all home décor, accents and decorative accessories news, market announcements and product imagery to susan@homenewsnow.com.

“Décor News Now gives me an opportunity to turn up the heat on some ideas and editorial products that have been simmering in the back of my brain for some time,” Dickenson said. “Having the ability and time to really focus on showcasing people, products and trends in a variety of digital formats is truly the icing on the cake.”

Dickenson has more than two decades of experience covering the retail, design and manufacture of home decor for consumer and trade publications. In 2006, she joined the editorial staff of industry trade publication Home Accents Today, where she spent 10 years as retail editor before being promoted to editor-in-chief in 2016.

During that time, she honed her editorial voice through thousands of interviews with home furnishings retailers, e-tailers, interior designers, product designers, manufacturers and consumers, bringing an unparalleled understanding of the industry to her print, digital, video, podcast and social media coverage.

“We are assembling a team of uniquely qualified writers with a depth of industry knowledge and expertise that is unrivalled,” said Home News Now Founding Publisher Rick Harrison. “As we move forward to launch new products that address the news and trend needs of underserved sectors in the home furnishings industry, I’m eager to see what Susan will create.

“It’s a challenging time we’re all living through, but history shows that disruption often spawns the greatest ideas.”

Dickensen added, “It’s hard to believe that once upon a time, accents and accessories were relegated to a few pages in a trade publication, or covered just a couple times a year in a special supplement; they’re such a major part of the home furnishings retail landscape now.

“Year after year, we’ve watched furniture trends follow the colors, styles and moods reflected in new rugs, lighting and accessory intros. It’s fascinating to observe and visually communicate the collective mindset behind this creative process, and I look forward to sharing this with our HNN audience.”
