Our winner from February (photos above & below) is Heidi Sowatsky of Abby's Decorating, dba Decorating Den Interiors / SWAT Design Team in Saint Charles, MO.

The bedroom windows in this home were installed low on the wall, leaving an awkward space between the windows and the ceiling. Heidi cleverly incorporated Tableaux above the windows as a faux transom to extend the windows upwards visually.

Heidi selected Tableaux Faux Iron in our "Abano" design pattern which matched the design in the drapery fabric used on the side panels. The Raw Cast Iron finish color complements the other accents in the room. So creative Heidi!

Our 1st runner-up for February (Before/After photos below) was Marni Sugerman of Milton Interiors, Inc.-Decorating Den Interiors in Bronx, NY.

Talk about an amazing transformation! Marni's clients had a very dated built-in wall unit which needed updating. Tableaux Grilles were used as doors to provide a bar area in the unit. Marni used mirrored plexiglass behind the grills to add a bit of sparkle. The entire room was transformed to be a modern living room for their family. We loved the design in the details of the matching diamond-shaped knobs too!

Marni chose Tableaux Elements and "Weave" design pattern. A custom finish color to match the cabinetry was applied later. WOW Marni!

Our 2nd Runner Up (photo below) was Robin McHaney of Simply Elegant Interiors in Montgomery, TX.

This was a total bathroom remodel. The tub and shower stall was converted to a large walk-in shower. The window niche/bay windows above the tub were a great place to add some Tableaux pizzazz.

Robin chose our "Beijing" design pattern in Elements finished in "Pewter". She also opted for our color-accented SnugSeal gasket that came pre-attached to the border for a tighter, more professional fit.

Last but not least, we have an Honorable Mention in February (photo below) sent in by Julie Moore of Julie Dunfee Designs LLC in Lake Forest, IL.

Julie's customer was looking for a bit of privacy for a transom window and did not want to use a traditional shade. Julie remembered Tableaux and envisioned using a decorative grille in the space. It offered the perfect amount of privacy while adding a bit of "artwork" to the room.

Julie chose the Tableaux "Arcola" design pattern only available in our Tableaux Metal product family, which recently became an option for Residential projects. The steel piece was powder coated in "Antique Bronze II" finish color. Well done Julie!
