If you missed our Saturday Daybreak appearance, here’s a recap of what we shared.

Several new items fresh from market were featured including this adorable Butlers Tray table.

A fresh take on a classic with a pickled wood tray & pewter-grey metal legs.  This multifunctional table serves well in the family room, as a bedside table or as a mini-bar during a dinner party.

We are in LOVE with the Triple Gourd Lamp in the fantastic soft robin’s egg blue. At 31″ tall, this substantial lamp can freshen your space with the pop-of-Spring color and an updated, clean look. Available in a rainbow of colors.

Phalaenopsis Orchid in terracotta

Add life, light and soften your space without having a green thumb by using great life-like botanicals. Mixing textures – aged terracotta pot, smooth glossy lamp base, MATCH pewter clock – give dimension and interest to your home.

Transform your dining chairs with custom slipcovers in an updated fabric.  Not only will hubby be happy with the savings, you will love how it breathes life into your room.

A signature design element at Cobblestone & Vine is bringing the outdoors in. The new Key Largo chair make great host & hostess chairs and can be easily moved for extra seating during a Super Bowl Party.

We would love to share our special treatment for incorporating these into your fresh update.  At Cobblestone & Vine, our design philosophy combines functionality with sophistication for an enduring look. Let us know how we can help you create a beautiful space.

Don’t forget our #WinterSale continues Monday & Tuesday at both locations.  Thank you to everyone who came out during the Saturday kick-off.  We appreciate you and enjoyed seeing your happy face.

Also this week, join us for a book-signing with designer & entertainer Kathryn Crisp Greeley.

We are thrilled and honored to announce Mr. & Mrs. Danan Kennedy!!

For those of you who have not had the pleasure of meeting the adorable Cathy Ray, we hope you enjoy getting to know her and her husband, Danan Kennedy, as we share the details of their November wedding day.

Weddings are such an exciting day.  So many details to remember.  From the dress, the flowers, the location. Cathy showcased her sophisticated style in her choice of dresses from Kate Spade.

Classic beauty right down to the shoes (Cathy’s shoes were ivory silk) and jewelry.

As part of our Cobblestone & Vine family, Cathy adds warmth, details and decisiveness to any project she takes on.  Her continued attention to detail could be seen in every aspect of her wedding.   Sweet wedding matches embellished in organza ribbon for each guest adds just the right touch to the gorgeous china place setting

Cathy’s choice of attendant gifts was luxuriously simple – a scrumptious Orange Blossom Pomegranate candle from Belle Fleur. Each gift wrapped in signature Cobblestone & Vine style with the addition of petite pine cones to compliment the season.

The garden at the Red Apple Inn & Country Club is a favorite spot for these two love birds and a fitting venue for sharing their vows with family.

The minister, Mr. Ken Dean, held the wedding rings in the  MATCH pewter box engraved in Italian, “Tutto e possible”…paraphrased, “All things are possible!”

After the morning ceremony in the garden, the wedding party lunched in a private dining room overlooking Greers Ferry Lake. Classic boxwood wreaths denoted the new bride & groom.

Cathy & Danan have to be two of the most photogenic people.  They look fantastic in every picture!  CONGRATULATIONS on your special day and on many happy years of marriage!  Thank you for sharing your Special Day with us!

We were recently honored with a request from Soiree to use our West LR store at Pleasant Ridge Town Center as a photo-shoot location for their story about Catherine M. Corless, an attorney at Little Rock’s Mitchell Williams law firm, heading up ACCESS School’s The Big Easel, “a new event set to bring together ACCESS’ parents and teachers in a setting that’s a little more intimate than usual.” Courtesy of Soiree.

We thought you would enjoy seeing what goes on behind the scenes at a photo-shoot.  Amber Brewer with Soiree & photographer Jason Masters are top-notch professionals who make creating outstanding photography look effortless.

Every little detail counts in photography.

Amber insuring the wardrobe is picture perfect.

In Little Rock, there is never a shortage on incredible organizations with creative and outstanding ideas on giving back.  Of course, we have a special place in our heart for ACCESS’ Schools.  His name is Leighton Toland.

And what a joy it is to know that Leighton’s school has support from local media, professionals, teachers and parents to continue the fantastic programs and events at ACCESS.

Recently, a one-man grassroots movement, The VAN, was brought to our attention in our city where the needs are great and the desire to give is greater. Meet Aaron Reddin, aka “Homeless Heretic” uses The Van to deliver food and supplies to the area’s homeless. Courtesy of SYNC Magazine.
