ABOUT:

Summer Baltzer's design philosophy is that all rules are meant to be broken and good design is about finding your own personal style. Known for her role on HGTV's "Design on a Dime" and TLC's new hit show "Unhinged," Summer's energetic personality and down-to-earth style has won her millions of fans.

As a licensed general contractor, business owner, TV personality and mother, Summer understands how difficult it can be to juggle the events of day-to-day life while trying to create a warm and inviting sanctuary for oneself. She has partnered with Jerome's Furniture because, with "Jerry's Price" everyday low price guarantee, customers aren't forced to wait to for deals or navigate through gimmicks and promotions.

Jerome's showroom features departments filled with furniture for homes of all shapes and sizes including Kidz to Teens; Leather; Dining; Jerome's Dream Shop (mattresses); Living Room; Entertainment; Home Office; and a clearance center. Plus, the popular "Room Packages" on display in the showroom make it easy for shoppers to select a coordinated room ensemble.

At the event, Jerome's will unveil Summer's favorite finds for 2011 and tips to create a home that perfectly reflects personal style on even the tightest budget.

"Having a beautiful home doesn't have to cost a bundle," says Stefanie Navarra, buyer at Jerome's. "I think a lot of people are surprised when they come in the store because we have so much merchandise that looks and feels close to high-end shops, but at much lower prices. It just takes a keen eye to know what's really going to work in your home. That's why we thought it's time to bring in a well-known designer so that our customers can hear first-hand how to create the home of their dreams... on budget and full of personal style!"

Attendees will walk away with a new perspective on decorating and energized by Summer's spirit, enthusiasm and budget-saving tips that make real interior design accessible. They'll also walk away with a gift from Jerome's for their tool chests.
