Is your web site secure?

Shopping with your credit card with house-to-homedesigns.com is guaranteed to be safe and secure.

We take extensive steps to process thousands of Internet transactions securely and safely. Our secure server software (SSL) is the industry standard for securing credit card transactions over the Internet.

This software encrypts all your personal information into an unrecognizable code that is securely transmitted from you to us. When this encrypted information reaches our secure server, we translate it back to its original form and store it safely offline and inaccessible through the Internet.

To continue our commitment to your security, every credit card processed is run through an address verification process to verify that the card is registered to the billing address on the order.

We are dedicated to providing you with a secure, worry-free shopping experience.

Payment Options

We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or Paypal (including eChecks) as forms of payment. It is our policy not to charge your card until we confirm that your order has shipped. We do, however, obtain an authorization on your card at the time of your order for the full amount of your order. Please note that this may appear temporarily as a charge on your account statement, but it is an authorization only and usually will go away after 24-48 hours. Paypal payments are immediately deducted from your account balance.

Re-authorizations after the initial order

We also obtain authorizations for the outstanding balance of your order if a) your order partially ships or b) the existing authorization is about to expire. Should the re-authorization not be successful, we will contact you for new payment information. If we are not able to obtain a valid authorization, we reserve the right to either cancel your order or charge your card for the outstanding balance of your order. If, after we charge your card as a result of not being able to re-authorize, you wish to cancel your order, please contact us and we will refund your card provided that your order has not yet shipped.

Confirmation of orders

After placing an order you will get a confirmation email within a few minutes. If you place an order with us and don't receive an confirmation email, please check your "junk" email folder - most times it will be there; otherwise, send us an email and we'll forward the information.

Sales Tax

You will only be charged tax if your order is delivered within the State of Maryland.

How to Measure for Bedding

To measure a mattress accurately, use a fabric measuring tape and follow the instructions below:

Step 1
• Start with a bare mattress.

Step 2
• Using the tape, measure from the left side to the right side of the mattress to determine mattress width.

Step 3
• Next, measure the mattress thickness from the top of the mattress to the bottom of the mattress. This is the mattress height (do not include the box spring that is under the mattress).

Step 4
• Multiply the mattress height by two and add that amount to the mattress width. This total width measurement will determine the size quilt or comforter that you need to fit your mattress. For instance, if your mattress total width & height is 85 inches, you will need a Queen cover. Always round up to the next size.

Note about a "Full/Queen" size. Most manufacturers now combine a full and queen sizing together so that a covering can fit either bed size.

Tips on Measuring for a Bed Skirt


Tip 1
•Remember that skirts are designed to fit the box spring, not the mattress.

Tip 2
•To order a bed skirt, you will need the drop measurement, which is length from the floor to the top of the box spring.

Tip 3
•In order to shorten any length for a custom fit, simply get the next size larger and fold the skirt from headboard to footboard to adjust up the sides to create the perfect drop length (secure with pins if needed).

Price Matching

We offer a Price Match option on almost any product. We do reserve the right to decline to match a price, but in most cases we will honor price match requests with other websites.

In order to qualify for a price match consideration, the following conditions and rules must be met:

1) The product must be in-stock and ready to ship that day on the lower priced site. Backorders will not be matched and we do not match prices on items that are out of stock.

2) The item must be EXACTLY the same as the product you want to order from us. Same color and size, etc.

3) Coupons and promotional codes may not be used with price matches, either from our site or from a competitors coupon.

4) Our Free Shipping policy will be void in the event the lower priced site has a more expensive shipping charge, and the shipping price from the other site will be matched and taken in consideration as part of the total price.

6) The Product must be orderable online. Online advertisements are not honored unless the product can be ordered online through a secure server with a functioning shopping cart.

7) The price match must be completed BEFORE you order the product from us. No price match requests will be honored on items that have already been ordered and/or shipped.

If your request for a price match meets all the above guidelines, feel free to give us a call and we'll let you know if we can match the price! 99.9% of the time we will.

Fabric Samples

We do not have sample fabrics or swatches at this time. However, purchasing a small item such as a pillow sham is an easy way to determine if the fabric and/or colors are a good match without purchasing the entire set.
