New Life for Baby

Baby Jane
My God Baby, Janey, has my heart. She's also my Favorite Client. She's a Vintage Chic type of Girl . . .loves Anthropolgie .  Janey is short on cash . . .she's not working much these days . However, she is One Stylish Gal and was in Desperate need of a Playroom Update. We started with Lighting . The project cost under $20 ! . . . Paid for in Kisses, Naturally.


Mom & Dad had an outdated Brass Chandelier
. . .we Decided to Work with It .

Existing Fixture

We Sprayed 2 coats of Valspar Gloss.
 City friends- You can Get Around the Paint laws 
by Purchasing at any Lowes outside of the City - 
I Recommend the one in Lincolnwood for the Quickest trip .

* Do This in Well Ventilated Area * 

#65201 "Exotic Sea"

Next we used Remnant ribbon from the Client's collection to Embellish the Shades .  Janey helped me Stamp Fabric paint onto the Shades
 to add a Little more Love.


And Just like That . . .
Baby Jane has a Swanky new Chandelier!

Radford Loves a Wedding

One of my dearest friends is to be married next June in Three Oaks , MI.  Ann Marie  is  not  your  average  gal . . .  and  surely  not  your   Run of the  Mill  Bride .   She  is a Remarkable Mélange of Clean Lines, Traditional Elegance, and a shot of Punk Rock .  Needless to Say, I am Honored & Stoked to Style her Wedding.  Set in a Breathtaking Winery, this intimate Gathering will feature a Rustic Backdrop with both Vintage & Modern Details. A perfect blend for a perfect couple. Stay tuned . . . Cheers!

The Stunning Bride

Inspiration was found right at 
the foot of the bride!



Traditional correspondence with the couple's custom logo appeals to the event's gracious formality without compromising the Bride's character 




Vintage & Rock inspired details with modern floral elements mingle flawlessly with pastoral elements of the winery.
