Succulent Ornaments!

Tis the season to be decorating!  Lets think a little green this year by adding some beautiful succulents to your tree. No matter what you decorate with this year, please keep plants in mind.  They are a beautiful way to bring color into your home while saving a bit of money and investing in something that will last.  Simply hook a succulent on an ornamental hook, and they will keep for several weeks.  The best thing about the idea is that when the season is over and its time to put the decorations away, plant your succulents!

Miami Wall Sconce


I am so excited to introduce the Miami Wall Sconce!  As I have mentioned before one of my favorite light fixtures is the Miami from Murray's Iron Works.  One of my clients wanted a "sister" wall sconce for her current project.  I had asked our workshop in Los Angeles if we have ever made a custom Miami Wall Sconce, and their response was no.  Since it had never been done, I took on the opportunity to design a custom wall sconce for my client.  I came up with two sizes for my client and both are unique.

14" W x 14" H x 7" Projection





7' W x 14" H x 7" Projection


The sconces are finished in Aged Bronze and have white opal glass.  These photos do not do them justice (they were taken by the workshop) but I wanted to share my lighting design with you. Once these are completely finished and installed, I am hoping to share some installation photos.
