Decking the Halls for December!

Bienvenue and Ho, Ho, Ho Everyone!

We have been busy bee's decorating homes for the last two weeks ~ our phones have been ringing off the hook to come back and "Deck the Halls" for the Holidays once again this year! We are filled with Santa's ever jolly "Ho! Ho! Ho!"

If you have not arranged for us to return as of yet ~ do so now ~ for our schedule is getting tight, particularly this next week and we are still taking design assignments through the third week of December! Enjoy a few peeks above of work we have done in the past!

~ A few thoughts on our Holiday Decor Process ~
To add consistency throughout your home with your holiday decor ~ I suggest repeating colors, themes, and decorating elements you adore. If your choice is "red beaded fruit" for example, then use it on your front door wreath, on your stairway garland, on your Christmas tree, and in your centerpiece, and let's not forget the treasured fireplace mantle! I can hear the crackling fire now!

Use this principle of repetition for a color scheme, choice of ribbons, patterns, ornaments, and motifs. Repetition also means that you'll need to make, or purchase, enough of something to really make a statement. Collect elements over the years or make a commitment to buy 10 bolts of the "perfect" ribbons to get the look you want. Proportion - vary the size of the elements used in holiday decor. For example, decorate your tree with a mix of small, medium, and larger ornaments. Or, pair garlands in varying widths for more interest, or even mix light sizes on the tree. Use holiday nosegays to make a statement. One of my personal favorites! If you have not started a collection ~ we can guide you by a series of questions and a personal tour of your home to understand your individual flair, style and grace.

~ The Designers Choice ~

Let our designers create a special piece that stuns your home with awe and sends an unequivocal message of panache and flair. You select the price and we select from the best of the season to build the most beautiful arrangement or holiday accent piece. We stand ready to assist you with your holiday vision for your home!

God's Blessings to all and Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Hanukkah and Happy New Years!

Warmest wishes for a grand, joyous and lovely Holiday Season!

Bonjour!

Note of Gratitude

To: Debra and the Tres Fabu Dream Team

We would like to thank you for all your hard work and your exquisite attention to detail. You have earned a special place in our hearts and family for making our wedding dreams come true.
Thanks to you and your team we threw the best party our friends and family had ever been too!
Words cannot sum up our gratitude for helping us communicate our love and relationship through music, lights, colors, themes and flowers.

The colors were AMAZING!

The Dream Team was awesome to work with! They were hardworking, dedicated to seeing our vision through, attentive, personable, and flexible but most importantly they wanted to know about us and our unique story. From the ceremony down to the introduction of the bridal party, you could see us in every detail!

We have become close over the last year, through all the meetings, planning and "distractions", and the most important aspect of this new found, genuine relationship was that you and your team were there every step of the way helping us, encouraging us, and keeping us focused for our beautiful wedding day!

Debra Hiebert & her Dream Team captured what I had always dreamt of for my special day. Thomas and I gained so much more from this experience that day than words can express. We truly have dear friends for life.

Our deepest gratitude to Debra & Her Fabulous Dream Team!

Love, Thomas & Melissa Lawson
