Here are a few new and unusual Decorating ideas to try in your home...........<p><p> If you have done anything really special, or want to share some ideas, Please e-mail us at carouselworkshop@yahoo.com <p> <p> ROOM DIVIDERS...Have you thought of using your Carousel Horse as a room Divider .... <p> You can try the inexpensive way, such as using a draped Cocktail table to sit him (or her) up on. <p>You can knock down 1/2 to 2/3 of a wall, put a shelf and mount with a pole, top to bottem, even leave an old window frame in and use that as the framing.........(be creative) . then you can drape around the bottem , or add an extra Brass Pole or two at either end.<p> <p> We sell all the poles and supplies and special order items too.<p> <p> ALCOVES & KITCHENS.& PLANT SHELVES....Small Jumpers, long Streched Jumpers, Rocking and Glider Horses look great on Plant Shelves, built in Alcoves, or above your Kitchen Cabinets, You can start a real collection up there.<p> <p>STAIRCASE.. We have had many customers build there new homes around a Horse (well not entirely) at least an alcove in the wall of a staircase, or for smaller horses on the outside of the Banister or on the extension landing over the staircase ! <p> <p>Think of changing to a Bay Window with recessed lighting. Even have had several build on new rooms....they tend to breed or multiply (I don't know how !) <p> <p>MANTLES.... Newest ideas, we have just hung a Jumper over a mantel of a fireplace, by hanging it from the ceiling, and attached to the wall with a set fo bicycle hangers.<p> <p> WALL HORSE...Not enough room for a whole horse, how about a 1/2, or 1/4 horse mounted on the wall . We can even design an entire mural around them for you.Even just a horse head....<p> <p> VARY HEIGHTS...You can group your carousel collection together and add interest by mounting them on different levels in the same area. By using a bleacher style stair mountings you can fit lots more horses in a space.<p> <p>ROUNDING BOARDS & MIRRORS...Enhance the entire room by finishing it off with one of our Carousel Rounding Boards, Mirrors, or Carousel Center Panels. Even add the carousel lighting to it.<p> <p> HEADBOARDS How about using one of our Carousel Rounding Boards, or Charriot sides for a Headboard .<p> <p>ENTRANCES.... archway entrance to a great room. We can custom paint them any colors too. <p> <p> RIDABLE HORSES.... How many of you have granchildren visiting????We can make bases so they can sit on them...rock on them ...or even mechanical bases. <p> <p> We hope to bring you many more new ideas and articles,<p> <p> Please come back and visit us ....and tell your friends too. <p> <p> Bye for now , Marsha<p> |
