			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>July 4 is just days away! In honor of the date that marks our nation&#8217;s independence, <em>SLHL</em> staffers have chosen their favorite pieces from Harden Furniture for this week&#8217;s Friday Favorites in a nod to the company&#8217;s commitment to American-made products and craftsmanship.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hardenfurniture.com/" target="_blank">Harden</a> is a family-owned and operated furniture company that has been in business since 1844. In addition to its American-made status, the company is also known for its dedication to the environment, as Harden&#8217;s hardwoods are certified under the <a href="http://www.sfiprogram.org/" target="_blank">Sustainable Forestry Initiative</a> (SFI). Harden has also achieved Silver Exemplary Status from the <a href="http://www.sustainablefurnishings.org/" target="_blank">Sustainable Furnishings Council</a>.</p>
<p>In addition, Harden Furniture was recently featured on the ABC Evening News series &#8220;Made in America Challenge,&#8221; an effort launched by news anchor Diane Sawyer to promote American manufacturing by furnishing a home in Dallas, Texas, using only products made by 100 percent domestic suppliers.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s to Harden!</p>
<p>1. <a href="http://www.hardenfurniture.com/Furniture/Seating/All-Settees-and--Chaises/3507-061-Settee.aspx" target="_blank">Carved wood, upholstered settee</a> by Harden, available through Frank Patton Interiors. <em>&#8220;I love the lines on this settee, and although the fabric is very beautiful, I would love to see this classic shape transformed for today with a bright, edgy, maybe even geometric fabric. Think fuchsia or tangerine!&#8221;</em> – Judy Uelk, Editor-in-Chief (Photo courtesy of <a href="http://www.harden.com" target="_blank">www.harden.com</a>)<br />
<a href="http://blog.stlouishomesmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/465c5501-2fd2-4624-b474-31eda4e16ba6_490_300.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3749" title="465c5501-2fd2-4624-b474-31eda4e16ba6_490_300" src="http://blog.stlouishomesmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/465c5501-2fd2-4624-b474-31eda4e16ba6_490_300.jpg" alt="" width="350" height="252" /></a><br />
2. <a href="http://www.hardenfurniture.com/Furniture/Seating/Chairs/Traditional-Style/9439-000-Wing-Chair.aspx" target="_blank">Channel back wing chair with turned front legs and brass ferrules</a> from Harden, available through Frank Patton Interiors. <em>&#8220;With a modern twist on the traditional wing back, this chic piece blends the two styles seamlessly. A chameleon, this chair can easily steal the spotlight or add subtle elegance in any space. Upholster it with a sunflower yellow or lime green print for dramatic touch in a neutral-toned room. Or stay beige for simple yet timeless sophistication.&#8221;</em> -Lauren Schrader, Art Director (Photo courtesy of <a href="http://www.harden.com" target="_blank">www.harden.com</a>)<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When used wisely, animal print can be a dramatic design element that blends well with a variety of patterns and textures, especially in eclectic, globally inspired spaces.
