Use this heaven-inspired ceiling medallion idea in your home! Faux finish skies or other artwork take on rich dimensionality with our customized iron art. Check out our creative faux finish partners at IDAL (International Decorative Artisans League) at www.decorativeartisans.org. Talented IDAL artists are experts at creating skies, gilded motifs, and stencils to enhance Tableaux® wrought iron designs.
I couldn’t resist passing along this photo of faux painting and with a wrought iron ceiling medallion. It shows the perfect marriage of faux finishing arts with Tableaux®. This domed ceiling is part of the Gaylord Palms Conference Center is Kissimmee, Florida where wrought iron is used extensively throughout the adjoining hotel public areas. As I passed by each decorative wrought iron embellishment within the Gaylord, I knew that if Tableaux® faux iron was known and available at the time the complex was built, lighter weight and cost effective Tableaux® would certainly have been chosen over wrought iron.
Unleash your imagination a little or a lot. Tableaux® is at your command!

Just in time for Valentine's, Budget Blinds dealer Curt Intro of Longwood, FL shared his newest and hottest Tableaux® photo with us this morning. Curt installed the piece for fellow Budget Blinds of Maitland/Lake Mary dealer Robyn Lenhart.
This stunning arch is #422 Cosenza design, an Italian-styled floral pattern. The ornate elegance of this design speaks for itself, or maybe it woofs. Who knows, but this little guy is obviously enjoying his upgraded digs.
To find out how your own windows, arches, transoms or sidelights would look with faux wrought iron Tableaux®, contact a Retailer on our site or if you are in the design trade, find out how to register with us. In the meantime, surround yourself with romance of the season.

Check out this central Texas homeowner’s use of Tableaux® faux wrought iron by clicking on the video. Tableaux® brackets in ever-popular #039 Firenze design embellish post corners on the pergola breaking up the stark straight line construction. An innovative installation of Tableaux® between two metal bars create a stable trellis sturdy enough for vines to meander around. Notice that the faux iron does not touch the ground.

One of my most enjoyable experiences is seeing Tableaux® installed in peoples' homes! My eye is trained to spot wrought iron design on homes, doctor's offices, restaurants, etc. By now I can spot Tableaux® a mile away. You can imagine the treat is was to visit with homeowner, Vicki Newton to see her Tableaux® displayed throughout her garden and in unexpected places on her walls. What is particularly interesting is her creative use of Tableaux® to dramatize her old privacy fence.
Her Tableaux® installations provide a trellis for vines to meander around as well as heighten the screening effect of the fence. The Tableaux® I have photographed here is Standard material, meaning that it is not the exterior grade we sell for outdoor usage. This Tableaux® has stood up to Texas intense sun and windstorms for over 3 years. Even her little tabletop Tableaux® has maintained its strength and straightness! Tableaux® Exterior is a great product for high humidity conditions and constant contact with watery weather. Thanks, Vicki for letting us come out to photograph your beautiful backyard garden sanctuary!
