A
s the summer fun gets
underway there is
no better time to try
something new—a new color of
nail polish, renting a car you have
always wanted to drive, new decor
ideas.
In this issue we pack it all in; the
new trend in kitchen pizzazz—
mixed metals. By mixing the trendy copper and brass with tried and true
stainless and brushed steel and silver you'll get a refreshed take on old
classics. Throw in a bit of black or rod iron and fuse them all together
to create a look that is both current but not super trendy. This can be
achieved by switching out a few pulls or barstools over doing a bigger
overhaul—but there is a technique to it. Read Mixed Messages to find your
next kitchen look using mixed metals.
Summer days bring time in the yard, enjoying cool beverages, playing with
dogs and laughing with friends. A good base is a must, but when the lawn
works against you no matter your efforts it might be time to look to the
professionals for advice. We have compiled a lawn care calendar for your
reference because after all it is not just about watering, and mowing and
watering again.
Finally what would summer be without that signature drink? If you are at
a loss for inspiration cue the Margaritaville melody and toss in some extra
island flare byway of the pineapple! What could be more summer?
All this and much more in this issue of Maison Magazine.
Discover, renew and relax!
