The Tennessee Artisan Market at The Renaissance Center invites all interior designers, interior design students, lighting professionals, artists and the general public to a free Interior Design Event and Lecture on Friday, October 7^th, 6::30 pm. The event will start with a lecture and presentation on “Light Revealing Design” by Amy Laughead-Riese, LC, the President and principal lighting designer for 37 Volts Light Studio, LLC in Cincinnati, Ohio. Amy will discuss techniques designers can use to reveal their design, including how to use light to defy gravity, melt architecture, or influence behavior. She will also address how to successfully accomplish good lighting design by keeping in mind budgets, energy codes and alternative light sources. In addition, she will discuss “Lighting Focal Points”, lighting characteristics to be considered when lighting paintings and sculpture, of interest to artists and interior designers alike.

After Amy’s presentation in the large lecture hall, we will have a Meet & Greet reception in the Tennessee Artisan Market at around 7:30 pm. Several of the Tennessee Artisan Market artists will be on hand to answer questions about their work. In addition, there will be an opening reception for three new art exhibits at The Renaissance Center by artists who are also represented in the Tennessee Artisan Market: Encaustic painter and designer Judy Klich, Memphis artist Donna Blackard and Mixed-media artist Sarah Stob.

Feather Hair Extentions

Feather hair extensions are taking flight this summer!

While this hair trend echos the boho style of the '70s, it hasn't just returned, according to Hair Flairs Canada (custom hair extensions and accessories manufacturer) manager Trina Marr, it's taken over.

"Technology has coupled with an old idea and made it new. We're not looking like Pocahontas," Marr tells StyleList. "It's classy and a bit rock 'n' roll."

Faced with a rough economy, Marr believes that women were in search of a budget-friendly way to dress up their hair. Feather hair extensions are a fun and flirty alternative to costly highlights, and the appeal sparked a frenzy among stylists.

Hair stylist Joy La Rosa of the Sam Brocato Salon in SoHo has noticed that women are sitting down in her chair for natural hued feathers because it looks natural and organic.


GOOD NEWS!!! I'm offering natural hued feathers that have been naturally shed, at a bargain price. I will do hair extensions for $10 each or clip-ins for $15. If you'd like some or know of a location where I can set-up a booth, please contact me. Thanks.
