I Love Stone Forest

It is not often that a person says that they love their job and actually mean it! I am very fortunate and happy to say that when I tell people I love my job I genuinely mean it because every day is a new adventure. There is not a single day that goes by during my work day that I do not learn something I never knew about, encounter amazing customers, and teach new customers all about Stone Forest!

All of my roles at work offer me new knowledge and experiences that I am fortunate to have and would not be given the opportunity to learn any where else without a college degree. Although I will be graduating in December with a Communication degree and Marketing minor I am able to gain valuable experience on a daily basis at Stone Forest.As the social media coordinator, event planner assistant, and practice my customer service skills to prepare me for what else is to come upon completion of my degree.

If it wasn't for the forest I would not be the same person I have become today and I am more than thankful for the opportunity I have been given! :)

Fresh Off the Truck

As the second edition of my Fresh off the Truck post I would like to introduce these beautiful crab orchard blue gray step treads! These step treads are perfect for a natural stone staircase around your yard or used to create a walkway. Make sure to come check them out at the forest before they sell out because they are sure to go quick!

Also, remember to keep up with our posts on social media by using the hashtag #FOTT .

Why Pavers?

If you are interested in installing a patio, but are not a huge fan of the irregular shapes that natural stone comes in then you may want to consider using Belgard pavers. There are many paver options with multiple color arrangements to choose from and are easier to work with if you are a DIYer. The reason many people choose pavers over natural stone is because each paver has a distinct pattern and will not have to be cut to fit a particulars space. Each individual paver will match the set it belongs to and results in completing your paver patio in no time!

Make sure to stop on into the forest to grab a Belgard paver and wall block catalog, price sheet, and take a tour around our indoor and outdoor showroom to gather awesome ideas for your home!
