Spartina 449 Visits The Iron Fish Gallery For First Photo Shoot

Spartina 449 Visits The Iron Fish Gallery Porch For 1st Model Photo Shoot

Did you know that Spartina 449, the nationally celebrated women’s hand bag & coastal apparel brand, had their first model shoot for their first line of handbags at my gallery on Daufuskie Island(see photo below)?  Kay Stanley, owner of Spartina 449, has been a good friend, neighbor, and customer.  To be quite honest, Kay is an inspiration to me because she has a track record of success but most importantly, she works with a smile and gets the job done.   In a short amount of time, this savy businesswomen has built Spartina 449 into a nationally recognized brand.  So in short, my welding mask is off to Kay for her vision and hard work.  I am proud to have played a tiny part in the beginning of this play.  Congrats and here’s to your future.

Coastal Decorating Tips for Chase Allen’s Handcrafted Sculptures

Three Coastal Decorating Tips for Chase Allen’s Handcrafted Sculptures

 

1.  Group/school the coastal sculptures in odd numbers….never even!

2.  Play with the spacing of the sculptures and adjust for the wall space that you are using.  These nautical sculptures can be spaced out to help fit the wall so use this to your advantage.  Start the school in a tight pattern and space them outward to match space available.

3.  Mix up the species.  Note that the mermaid sculpture looks awesome with the fish art swimming in the same direction.  Here is an exception to tip #1 because you are mixing the species!

3 Ideas To Decorate Your Beach House with Mermaid Art

 

Every mermaid decoration on this page is handmade on Daufuskie Island by metal sculptor Chase Allen.  Find out even more about Chase and his work by clicking here.

This mermaid decor has a salmon colored tail and silver hair, look closely and you can notice the rustic patina that Chase’s art is now famous for.  I think it would look great in the coastal decorated room below. 

From our friends at Coastal Living, they also offer this great coastal decorating tip “Punch up a coastal palette with dashes of beach-grass green. When used in small doses, the color adds zing to a traditional nautical scheme”.

Beach House Decor- Handcrafted Iron Mermaid Art Sculptures


Coastal wall art should not only be visually appealing, it should have the ability to tell a unique story through it’s colors and textures.  It takes so much effort to create that perfect space and decorating is the “finish line”.  People will no doubt remember and probably comment on your decor choices…..perhaps even inquire a bit.  Make sure that your beach house decor brings a great story!   Take a minute to truly look at your wall art.  Without you saying a word, can it tell it’s own story?  Is there any depth to the piece?

With home decor, whether for your beach house or primary home, the moral of this story is to be ready and buy for looks and a story!

Take for example these quasi abstract, 100% handcrafted mermaid art sculptures.  These girls ($720/each) tell an incredible story and the colors and textures are bound to receive attention and comments.  Bring the artist to life by hanging only handcrafted wall art.
