Wow — we have been triply blessed this weekend!  Here’s the deets:

1)  Orlando Sentinel - There, on the front page of this Sunday’s Homes section, is their main story of the week: an article entitled “Stunning Transformation”.  It is the home of Jim and Jennifer Ross and we were the faux finishing firm they called in.  They mention us in the article (yay!) and here is some of what they said: “The creamy Venetian plaster on the fireplaces has hints of green and blue, for example.  And the light purple plaster in the breakfast nook is delicately streaked with silver and gold for a waterfall effect.”  It is definitely one of the favorite homes we’ve worked in and we would bend over backwards for the Ross family.  Here’s some pics:

Metallo Venetian Plaster (both are actually the same color but just seem different)

Traditional Venetian Plaster in a striking color used in just the right accent areas:

2)  Orlando International Airport - We were just chosen to be the firm to do Venetian Plaster in a new area of the airport.  It is to be a quick turnaround and so we should have pics for you soon of the completed areas.  Here’s a Before shot to tease you:

3) Last but definitely NOT least - We have a new addition to the family!!!  My very loved in-laws just gave birth to their second child (and first girl): Victoria Hope.  Our side of the family drove down to Miami (caravan-style) to go meet her.  Victoria is so tiny and beautiful (5 lbs. 8 oz.).  Once Cristy and Damien (my husband’s brother) got home, we took them out for the first family portrait.  Here it is:

What an amazing weekend…I hope yours proved as wonderful as well!
