The Lounge

Posted in: WEDDING|No Comments

Lounge areas have become very popular at weddings. Creating another little area for your guests to chat and enjoy themselves is really a great addition. However, with event rental companies, there seems to be the generic furniture that everyone uses. Don’t let this opportunity to create something spectacular go to waste!

In keeping with my french, vintage luxury theme I knew I needed french antiques, but was unsure where to find antique rentals. Thankfully vintage rentals for weddings are becoming more and more readily available.

After a little research I found an interior designer in Niagara on the Lake who had started a side business called “The Warehouse”. She was renting out exactly what I needed – french furniture and antiques!

After a few meetings with her we had designed a spectacular little nook that looked just like a french salon. Guests were in absolute awe of this beautiful little piece of a French Chateau that we had brought into the ballroom. It created the perfect place to have a “tete-a-tete” with friends, pose for pictures and enjoy after dinner sweets.

With a little research I am sure you can find a similar supplier – they seem to be popping up everywhere!

ABOUT HEALTHY HOME

  • At Valiant Design Co. Healthy Home, we believe that home decor should not only be beautiful and affordable, but it absolutely should be safe for you and your family. That means no nasty chemicals that can cause serious harm to you, your family and the environment.

    While there are many product lines out there that are organic, Valiant Design Co.’s lead designer, Sarah Valiant, was very hard pressed to find organic options that didn’t look like a burlap sack or would only appeal to a boho style. What about the every day person who wanted an elegant, traditional or contemporary look? With more and more of her clients requesting organic, eco-friendly and non-toxic options for their home, she knew the only way to give her clients what they wanted was to make it herself! And so came the beginnings of the Healthy Home product line.

    Every element of our products are researched endlessly to ensure it is the safest option out there at the most affordable price (and with the right look!). With the majority of other designer cushions ranging in price from $75-$250, we strive to delight you with our extremely well priced($65-$85), non-toxic, and beautiful designs.

    The Facts

    The long and short of it is that the majority of us have no idea that the everyday products we use in our home (sofas, beds, kitchen ware, – and yes cushions!) are made with chemically treated fabrics, foams and very toxic glues. These chemicals are absorbed into our skin, and off-gas into the air in our homes.

    Here are just a few of the problems these chemicals can cause:

    • Hormonal Problems

    • Reproductive Disorders

    • Developmental Disorders

    • Cancer

    • Respiratory Issues

    It is so important to start moving away from products that contain toxic chemicals. It not only affects the environment negatively, but also hurts the health of us and our families.

  • I use the grow new hair treatment only on my scalp and massage it for about 5 minutes, then leave it in for 30 minutes. I started to use this product one year ago. My husband thinks I will don’t need it anymore, because my alopecia and extremely thin hair is gone. I don’t care if I have perfect hair or not it doesn’t matter. This product improves the quality of my hair and if I use too much it does not cause any damage. I just feel I am doing the best to maintain healthy hair!
