April showers bring May flowers: Floral Decor
Well, April is drawing to a close and May is almost here! I can’t believe it! Soon flowers will be in full bloom. Floral artwork and accessories are quite popular and can really add that pop of color to your space. And for those of us lacking a green thumb it’s a way to bring nature indoors. Sometimes a floral upholstered piece looks great too! Let’s take a look at a few examples:
Happy Easter!
This is the time of year as a child, I would dream of being Judy Garland on 5th Avenue, pretending I have a beautiful Easter bonnet with all the frills upon it! Anyone else also enjoy watching Easter Parade? Like Judy Garland and Fred Astaire, Easter is quite charming when it comes to style and fashion. Here’s a sweet peek at Easter and spring inspirations making their way into home interiors!
Trend : Coral
Favorites : Sputnik
Plum : Accent Pieces
Plum is a rich color that can add sophistication to any space. The saturated color can anchor a space or bring depth. Try using plum as an accent in your home! Also – notice the use of velvet, a beautiful trend in home decor! Click on the link to read our past blog post about velvet trends!

Home Staging : For Potential Buyers or Yourself!
In the past 7 days, my husband & I closed on the sale of our house and we moved to a temporary home as we wait for our new house to be constructed. Our realtors, Robert and Karen Rumba of Greenwood, are optimistic about the housing market in Indiana. To prove it, our home was on the market for only 20 days! Home staging is critical to ensure successful showings, leading to a prompt, completed sale. Even if you are not planning to sell a home, it is nice to spruce up your existing living space and show it off a bit!
A simple centerpiece can add class to your dining space. These topiaries from Pottery Barn are simple and add a natural touch. If you have a garden, clip some blooms. Decorate sparingly and appropriately. To reiterate, avoid clutter!
These are just a few simple tips to make your home more attractive to potential buyers or just for yourself! We would be excited to help you sell your home fast with appropriate staging. If you need your existing space to be rearranged with a designer’s eye, contact us!

Guest Post : Metal Lighting
Happy Wednesday! Halfway through the week, hooray! Anyway, today, we are happy to have a guest blogger share some inspiration and trends in metal lighting. Enjoy!
Hi, all! It’s Mari here from Arcadian Home blog, a lovely place to find lots of decor inspirations. I’m so happy to be visiting Hepburn Interiors to share a guest post about metal lights that are both beautiful and functional. From appealing foyer lighting to stylish contemporary kitchen island pendants and everything in between, there’s a perfect metal light for every space, indoors and out.
Today, I’ve brought along images of eight spaces that show how beautifully metal lights can work in just about any design style. Please enjoy!
With twigs and vines, this metal hanging lantern is unexpectedly delicate. It’s a beautiful design choice to complement traditional wallpaper and contemporary built-in banquette–a lovely mix of styles.
From light and airy chandelier to heavy buffet lamps, the metal lights in this room offer a beautiful and intriguing study in contrast.
Contemporary white cone pendants with golden metallic linings are beautiful above a massive center island. What a wonderful eat-in kitchen!
In an inviting eclectic open living space, a black wrought iron chandelier gets a touch of glam with strings of glass beads.
Black metal shades and chrome arms create a cool wall lamp design that seems just right for this contemporary kitchen. I love the chunky open shelves for dishes.
Another twiggy metal chandelier adds a touch of femininity to the chic bedroom. The dark chocolate upholstered bed becomes the design’s focal point amidst the paler hues on the walls, floor and at the windows.
Wrapped in travertine, this bath is at once elegant and stunning in its simplicity. Contemporary brass wall sconces have the look of miniature torchiere lamps—quiet lovely.
Metal lights are perfect for outdoor spaces. This one adds drama and contemporary style to an intimate patio–a beautiful place for morning coffee, lunch with friends or leisurely dinner party after dark. Images 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5| |6 | 7 | 8
