Coral Gables and Ocean Drive
Our original inspiration came from a room that Kendall Wilkinson published in traditional home magazine. On this first cool day of fall here in Nebraska it took me back to the years I lived in south Florida. Miami Beach and Coral gables are so rich in color and design.
We were inspired by the turquoise lacquered walls along with the lucite headboard and table. The pops of orange framed with the white make this look so rich.
The fun and funky pieces from Z Gallery always serve as a muse for us. The aquamarine mimosa drapery panels, the miraposa candle holders (of which we already have in our inventory) and the awesome “Miami” canvas print.
We designed a two layer invite and used the drapery panels as a unique backdrop to the invite and with a twist did a full bleed print on the back side of the invite. We printed on our 100% cotton stock, it has a rich texture and sheen when printed in color even better it is oh so GREEN as it is a completely renewable stock printed at our ECHO Friendly printer that is 100% wind powered.
We added a monogram to the back of our sexy and sleek ghost chairs. These are awesome paired with our white leather lounge set or a head table. The Lucite makes such a statement – imagine it in front of a teal bengaline linen – sexy and rich!
For florals we stayed monochromatic with a pave of orange carnations and mokara orchids in our white miraposa vessels and long with a simple linear arrangement in our thin oblong vessels. The linear arrangements are awesome for the “family style” seating as well as a break from the ordinary on rounds.
The miraposa candle sticks are a nice addition in both the aquamarine and white. Great topped with a candle or a pave round would add another dimension and some additional texture to the design.
