Kitchen sinks present the opportunity to add some softness to a corner, as long as it can be easily cleaned. A little foliage next to a complimentary accent ties the look together. This project requires little effort and maintenance, but gives warmth to the metallic tone of the sink.

An Intimate Wedding in Rustic Elegance
An intimate reception was held for a couple who chose to marry out of state and then celebrated with family in the bride's hometown. This event was all about her home and her family, so everything was designed around rustic elegance with her Midwestern roots in mind.
Dessert and cocktail stations were laid out in a serpentine fashion, removing the tendency towards crowded buffet style lines, encouraging relaxed mingling and conversation.
The bride wanted the main culinary event to be focused on her grandma's homemade pies, rather than her cake. Ed LeFebvre at Cupcake Island achieved our bride's vision by thinly icing a simple three tier cake and wrapping it with burlap ribbon. This kept the spotlight on grandma's pies while the cake itself became part of the elegant rustic decor.

Filling a Blank Wall
Our client bought a table and let us finish the wall in her newly built home. We added a well scaled mirror and a contemporary bowl filled with moss orb accents. Then, we balanced the look further by bringing in two classic lamps. The finished look made the lower level feel inviting and complete. This solution is an outstanding option for a short blank wall that creates a corner or at the end of a hallway.

Wedding of Fida and Ziad
Nuptials befitting royalty were held at Saint Mary's Orthodox Christian Church in Omaha, Nebraska featuring a glamorous array of white, pink, and a touch of accenting purple.
We created the bride's bouquet to sparkle during the candle lit service with silver leaves tucked beneath orchids, roses and freesia.
Garden roses and hydrangea graced the reception banquet tables in the Blackstone Ballroom at the Hilton down town.
The bridesmaids' bouquets became featured pieces for the serving tables, easily becoming part of the decor while giving the ladies a place to set them.

Autumn Outdoor Wedding
The crisp air and the elegant colors of early Fall provide the perfect backdrop for an outdoor wedding. Sophisticated romance never looked so lovely as this wedding we had the pleasure of designing for.
This beautiful event took place at Elmwood Park pavillion, which features already picturesque facilities. The location provided ample opportunities for unique designs that varied from simple to grandiose.
The natural ambiance of the park required little embellishment, so we accented the surroundings with pops of orange, red, blue, and yellow to bring in the couple's wedding colors.

Niches
Builders seem to love putting niches in new houses. Each niche provides all kinds of decorating possibilities and we always enjoy finding new solutions for them. These two wrought metal wall flowers fill each space while standing out with distinction. They also create an artistic backdrop for the staircase.

Edit and Refresh
Sometimes it's not what you add to a room, but what you edit! This living room corner is the perfect example. We re-positioned this console table elsewhere in the home to add height to the space. Then, we brought a silver chest in from another room and placed an elegant glamour lamp alongside some silver accents.
We brought in the chair to make the corner cozy, then traded the art to make the look complete and different. Editing is an easy, cost effective solution to creating an entirely new look in your home. Get inspired with more pictures from our website!
