June 2016 Newsletter

We know that our customers care about adding extra touches of elegance to their homes. Our overmantels do just that. Adding height emphasizes your hearth as a room’s focal point, and adds visual interest.

If you’ve ever thought an overmantel would bring something special to your living area, now is the time to act.

Featured Project of the Month

As you probably know, at Old World Stoneworks we love to see our customers in action upgrading their homes with our beautiful mantels,overmantels and range hoods. Let’s journey down to hot and sultry Breaux Bridge, Louisiana –the Crawfish Capital of the World — and take a look at one recent project.

Husband and wife team Beau and Lisa McDaniel together run C.Mac Construction. They met almost twenty years ago during a 5K charity run, and have formed a creative alliance ever since. Their specialty is building comfortable, luxurious houses for families to call home. The McDaniels have three children of their own, so they understand the needs of a family. But they also realize that each family unit has its own tastes and preferences, so design lead Lisa works with individual families for a perfect fit.

Let’s see how the McDaniels used Old World Stoneworks products in their recent build.

Kitchen

Whether doing homework, snacking, or during parties, families and friends tend to congregate in kitchens. C.Mac Construction chose our 48” Florentine range hood to make this new kitchen sparkle. With a ten-foot ceiling, this kitchen is ready to display the grandness of our Florentine. Note how well the range hood complements the carved details on the cupboards.

Living Room

What goes with an 18-foot ceiling in a living room? Our #8 overmantelmakes a ceiling-high statement. Pair it with our Nottingham mantel, and you have the foundation for a room that invites parties and family gatherings year-round.

Master Bedroom Suite

French Louisiana calls for French-inspired furnishings. So the McDaniels chose a cool yet rich white, cream and gold color palette for the master suite. Our French-inspired Calais mantel fits in perfectly. This is one romantic bedroom that any couple would be proud to inhabit.

Are you inspired to upgrade your home? If so, give us a call and we can help you pick out the perfect mantels and range hoods for your dwelling. We’d love to feature your home in a future project of the month. Make sure to take plenty of before and after photos, and send them our way.

Happy Partnerships

One of the McDaniels’ favorite saying is, “We work better together than we ever could alone.”  We salute their spirit of collaboration. At Old World Stoneworks, we hope that our customers feel the same way about working with us.  If you’re considering upgrading your kitchen or fireplace area, give us a call. And if you’d like your project to be featured in a future project of the month, we would be thrilled to hear from you and tell your story.

We love to see what our customers are up to. If you’ve added one of our mantels or range hoods, please send us before and after photos and the story or your project. Maybe you’ll be featured in an upcoming newsletter or blog post!
