VON HAUNT ESTATE - MAXIS-MATCH CC BUILD

Formerly the residence of Lord and Lady Shallot, the Von Haunt Estate has undergone restoration and now welcomes the public as a museum. Inside, visitors can explore the personal art collection and belongings of the estate's previous lords. However, a word of caution: the lords were known to be quite possessive of their possessions, and there are occasional rumors of their ghosts wandering the grounds... It's likely nothing to worry about. If you want to check out the construction progress, watch the YouTube video linked below.

When The World Is Free: Chapter 6 - J'ai Dansé Avec L'Amour

MASTERPOST PREV | NEXT

Pairing: Benedict Bridgerton x fem!reader, WW2 AU.

Warnings: none, really… some kissing and some awkwardness

Word Count: 2.4k

Author’s Note: Multi-chapter fic based on a request by the lovely @amillcitygirl! Please see the masterpost for a synopsis of this story. Well, this isn't the wedding yet, but it's them both dealing, rather awkwardly, with the idea of getting married as they grapple with their attraction to each other. The wedding will be the next chapter. Thanks to @colettebronte for beta reading. Enjoy!

Montivilliers (just outside Le Havre), September 1939

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Eloise whispers into the inky blackness.

“What other choice do I have?” you whisper back, unwilling to admit how weirdly calm you are about the scheme.

You are lying in the spare room of Solène’s sister, Marie and her husband Jérôme’s cottage. Sharing the compact double bed, shoulders touching as you converse quietly. It must be after 2am. Benedict chivalrously insisted on taking the sofa downstairs despite being stuck on yours in Paris for the last few days.

“I still say we should find some forgers,” Eloise opines; you can hear the shrug in her tone. “You shouldn’t have to go through with a marriage to my brother just to escape.”

“It’s fine,” you placate, waving your hand dismissively, although likely unseen.

“What about Stanley?”

“I’m sure he will understand when I can eventually get home,” you fib.

There is a brief lapse into silence, and outside somewhere, an owl hoots.

“You know we may have to bribe someone to do this regardless, don’t you?” 

“What are you talking about?” you frown, turning your head to face her.

“There are rules about residency for French civil marriages, and you’ll need identification neither of you have with you, like birth certificates,” Eloise points out.

“Ohhh…” you stutter, feeling sheepish you didn’t even know that.

“Although… Jérôme is the mayor of Montivilliers…” Eloise offers thoughtfully. “And he is sleeping just through that wall…”

“He can marry us?” You’re unable to hide the excitement in your voice.

“If he’s willing to overlook a few things… yes… he could marry you in the Town Hall.”

Internally, you are celebrating even as you try to temper your excitement.

“Then, for my sake, let’s hope he is,” you answer, attempting to sound gravely concerned.

Eloise hums sleepily in response, and it’s your last words before she drops off. You lay awake for what seems like hours, staring up at the beam of moonglow on the whitewashed ceiling. A myriad fluttering in your stomach—a cautious optimism that this could work, a strange excitement at the thought of marrying Benedict, and a vague dread that your family could still be upset if it all works out. 

—

A light, dewy mist lingers in the garden outside the kitchen window as you sip coffee the following morning. A moment of solitary contemplation that has you considering a telegram to your family but deciding against it. Until you know if you can get out of the country, it seems pointless to make them more concerned than they already are.

“Dress shopping?” Eloise asks over a yawn as she plops into the seat next to you at the rustic wooden table in the kitchen, breaking your reverie. “For the wedding…” she adds when you frown nonplussed.

Oh.

“I, umm, was just going to use one I already have, to be honest. That off-white silk tea dress?”

Eloise cocks her head to the side in thought. “Hmm, that might just work - that can be your something old. I have a little faux fur stole you can wear to dress it up - something borrowed. I know you have some powder blue underwear, so we only need something new!” 

“You believe in that stuff?” you frown, taking a sip. It seems so anachronistic for her. You also decide not to ask how she knows about your underwear.

“I know it's not…” she leans in, likely worried about prying ears, mouthing the word ‘real’, before continuing at her regular volume, “...but best not to tempt fate,” she raises a pointed eyebrow, silently reminding you of what is at stake.

“Good point,” you concede as she gets up to grab some fruit.

“Your humble sage at your service,” she jests, taking a comedic bow. 

“But we still have to ask Jérôme…”

“Ask me what?” a genial, heavily accented booming voice rings out from the doorway.

“This one and my brother have gone and fallen in love,” Eloise explains, rolling her eyes. “The soppy idiots want to get married in France as soon as possible. I don't suppose you could help, could you? It would be their dream come true and so very romantic, non?” 

She appears to be piling on the theatrics, but you see that winning smile, the one she deploys whenever she manipulates an unsuspecting man to get her way. Sometimes, you swear it is almost too easy to navigate the world as an attractive Bridgerton.

“Pour vous, ma petit chou-fleur, peut-être…” he responds, an avuncular glint in his eye. It is evident from this interaction and the previous evening when you arrived that Marie and Jérôme have spent time with Eloise, likely in Paris with Solène.

“Merci Jérôme!” she celebrates, kissing his cheek as he affectionately chuckles. “Demain?” she adds cheekily.

“Mon dieu Eloise,” he exclaims as he grabs a croissant, “C'est très bientôt!”

You try to listen in as they rapid-fire converse in French, but you only follow along with every few words, maybe something about paperwork, but really, you are not sure. It mostly seems fond exasperation on Jérôme’s part, so you sit hopeful, just as Benedict wanders in.

“Ah, the other love bird!” Eloise cuts away from their chat. “I know you want to get married so quickly, but please do not make out too much in front of Jérôme!” she titters pointedly at Benedict, her eyes cutting from him to you.

Benedict seems to cotton on very quickly, and you startle as he leans down and brushes a featherlight kiss onto your cheek.

“Bon matin, mon amour,” he rumbles, his minty breath warm, causing goosebumps to break out over your arms.

“Morning, my love,” you whisper back stutteringly, the words almost tacky on your tongue, your mouth suddenly so dry. Your eyes meet, and it's the closest you have ever been, captivated by the tiny flecks of colour in his iris. He doesn't look away, and you seem unable. 

“Oh oui, je le vois, l'amour vrai… ” Jérôme mutters quietly across the room. “I will see what I can do,” he offers in English as you finally tear your eyes away, him giving you a nod before he takes his leave.

“Well done!” Eloise enthuses quietly with a big thumbs-up gesture once Jérôme has left the room. “Really convincing!” she adds before twirling out of the room with an apple jammed in her mouth.

“Sorry about that…” Benedict offers, a little flustered.

“No, please…” you can't think of anything else to say, almost tongue-tied as you replay his kiss on your cheek like a looping projector reel, wanting to add ‘do it again’, a tingle still lingering on your skin. 

There are a few beats of awkward silence where he seems on the precipice of saying something, but you are almost afraid to hear it, as if worried he wants to conjure an excuse to back out.

“I…I need to buy my something new!” you exclaim, jumping up and scurrying out of the room, leaving Benedict mildly perplexed about what that might even mean.

—

After a successful trip into Le Havre, where you and Eloise found your ‘something new’ - a pair of ivory Mary Janes that will complete your outfit - the day ends with Jérôme and Marie taking you all to a local restaurant. A delicious meal of many courses with flowing carafes of wine under the bright red canopy outside. It turns into one of those late nights with convivial conversation and bonding with strangers.

A band strikes up in the cobbled square, and after a few numbers, Jérôme drags Marie up to dance as the three of you cheer.

“Les tourtereaux!!” Jérôme exclaims after the song ends, gesturing for you and Benedict to join them on their makeshift dance floor.

“Non..non!” you protest, gesturing a no with your arms and laughing, a languid feeling in your bones from good food, drink and conversation.

But it appears he won't take no for an answer, and as Marie giggles and applauds, Jérôme marches over and grabs you both by the elbow, hauling you to your feet.

“Danse!” he commands.

You and Benedict exchange slightly nervous looks but emboldened by wine; then you gasp as a strong arm wraps around your back, and your other hand slides into his.

“Just go with it,” he breathes into your hair, and suddenly, you are spinning, the stars above you twinkling, as he leads you expertly in a swing dance.

“Mr Bridgerton, you can dance!” you exclaim in blithe amusement, clinging to him as you move together in a balletic union.

“As can you, Mrs Bridgerton!” he peels carefree.

Your heart jumps into your throat, and you lose your footing. Benedict has to grab hold and haul you back upright before you collapse onto the cobbles.

“Sorry…” he blusters, his arms still around you, “I…I wasn't thinking…”

“No, no. That will indeed be my name…” you stumble, almost as if that is only just occurring to you now. “I'm just getting used to it, that's all,” you lie, knowing that is not why you lost your footing. 

He seems to accept that with a nod, and after a beat, you begin to move again, tentatively, Until the wine takes over and you are once again both giggling and dancing, his arm a strong brace around your back as you move together for many minutes, a joy fizzing in your veins.

At one point, you glance over and see Eloise with an odd expression on her face before she orders a drink from the waiter, but Benedict whips you around, and you get lost in the dance and in him. The feel of him wrapped around you at once safe and exhilarating.

“Kiss!” comes the yell from Jérôme as the song ends.

“You know, he's not going to shut up until we do it,” you raise, a little breathless from the dancing.

Without you having to say anything else, Benedict’s hands grasp around your waist, and you are lifted off the ground, taller than him. Then he tilts his head up and captures your lips with his.

Time stops.

The feeling is like an explosion and a perfect calm silence all at once. His lips don't open, but they don't need to - even this gentle kiss is a soft, sensual plushness that obliterates all your thoughts. A lingering tang of wine on his slightly dampened lips that you want to lick off, a plunge of lust in your belly that has you fighting the urge to wrap your legs around his hips and open your mouth, demanding a real kiss.

His hands slide around your back in a gentle cage as he lowers you to your feet. What upends you is the breathtaking look in his eye when he finally pulls away, pupils blown, face soft and full of yearning. You could never tire of that look.

“Get a room!” Eloise yells, and there is an uncharitable tart edge to it that breaks the spell and makes you look over at her. She appears much more inebriated than she was before.

“Is she okay?” you ask, your hands still wrapped around Benedict’s biceps, warm through his shirt sleeves.

“I think she ordered absinthe, so maybe not,” he answers, and you feel a pang of sadness as he releases his hold and gestures gentlemanly for you to walk ahead, to return to the table, the moment lost.

Half an hour later, Benedict and Jérôme are on either side of Eloise, helping her back into the cottage, much worse for wear. They get her to the sofa, where she promptly passes out and begins to snore lightly. Marie covers her in a blanket, and you realise it's unlikely you will be able to move her tonight.

“Well, you two will have to share the bed. But do not worry, I shall not tell your families,” Jérôme winks. “I can’t say Marie and I were saints before our marriage,” he adds with a tap on his nose and an uproarious chuckle.

Your eyes dart to Benedict and his to you. Panic, excitement, and apprehension all bubbling up inside—a volcanic eruption in your gut. You trust him not to take advantage; it’s yourself you don't trust.

Jérôme wraps an arm around both of your shoulders, red wine heavy on his breath “Oui, I will marry you tomorrow, mes amis. I can overlook some rules for a true love like yours.”

With that, he takes his leave, with you and Benedict left looking uncomfortably at each other, unsure if you should celebrate. That feeling remains as he suggests you go up first and get ready for bed, and once you are nervously tucked under the covers as he enters from the bathroom, those broad shoulders framed with a white t-shirt and the same bottoms he wore in Paris when you watched him sleep.

“I really wish I'd packed a proper pyjama set,” he sighs ruefully as he approaches the other side of the bed and slips under the covers, seemingly arranging himself right at the far side.  “I'm also so sorry about Eloise landing us in this situation. I can't believe she was that irresponsible,” he adds with his back turned but an unmistakable tinge of irritation in his tone. 

Even then, it’s a small bed, and you can feel his body heat radiating under the covers.

“You don't have to cling to the edge,” you offer hesitantly, “we are to be married after all…”

The last words are a whisper that sounds almost wounded, and he twists over, a look of surprise crowding his features.

“I am merely being respectful...” he replies cautiously.

“I know…” it's barely audible, and you can’t look at him.

The overwhelming awkwardness makes your chest ache, your hands wringing together nervously under the covers. What feels like mere moments ago, you were swept into his arms, and he was kissing you as if your lives depended upon it. And now this… the juxtaposition of reality and the fairytale you both act so well draws a lump to your throat.

“This whole situation is so odd,” you confess quietly, unable to be anything but honest with him.

“I know… I'm so sorry it has come to this.” 

You have no idea if he means tonight, the marriage or even life in general, in a war that could come to your doorstep any day.

“I don’t regret anything,” you volunteer after a beat.

“Neither do I…” his earnest whisper makes something inside you crack open, your palm itching to squeeze his hand.

Instead, you exchange soft goodnights, and you lay stock still for a long time, backs towards each other, feeling at once too close and a million miles apart.

The Bluewind inn is a multifunctional lot as it could be set as a rental lot, a restaurant, a pool, or a spa.  

ATTENTION: This is a huge build and is very cc heavy, so beware. If you’ve downloaded my other builds, you should have majority of the cc’s I used…But there’s more cc on this than usual.

For a very quick, but effective fix: Pasha's improv rustic pizza

Meet Pasha IV, Shipper Mom's British Shorthair spirit animal and soulmate:

This is the most lazy & gourmet being ever to grace this planet, so it's only normal to dedicate the following quick fix recipe to him (pets are never 'it' in this house, nor should they ever be - damn grammar!).

This is a freestyle recipe I invented for myself back in my first days of desperate cooking apprenticeship, in Paris. Leaving home at 18, with virtually zero food skills, I quickly realized it was not reasonable to eat every single day in town. My path to cooking began with books, fantasizing scrumptious recipes and a lengthy, persevering trial and error process. I always was a difficult, horrendously fastidious client, but now I was slowly turning into a monster, keeping my eyes peeled on cooking gestures and mannerisms, wherever I could find them.

This pizza experiment was an instant success and the moment the coin dropped: I actually could do things to and with food, that would be something more than survival. The rest is reading ahead, combining ahead and never being shy to ask around for that recipe. From taxi drivers to friends, they were all more than happy to generously indulge, all around the world.

You need whatever you have loitering around in your fridge and you aren't really sure how to recycle. I even happily, barbarically put mac & cheese or cold satay noodles (want my recipe? I poached it in Phnom Penh) on it. Tuna/corn/red onion is a sure combo and so are deli bits and bobs/corn/Vidalia onion. Cold roast beef, too. Diced ham, onion and even roasted potatoes leftovers, plus heavy cream - only in winter. Sardines (tinned), lemon/orange zest, ground pepper and perhaps a dash of coriander leaves (add herbs at the end, otherwise, they will go bitter). Fresh goat cheese, pistachio, figs (even fig jam will do) and balsamic vinegar. Sky is the limit. I also never use Mozzarella, and yes, please curse me - I always use Irish red cheddar, because this is what you are likely to find in my fridge until the end of time. And whenever you can or see fit, break an egg on top of it three to five minutes before you take it off the oven: it's called Pizza Radio and it is a local Corsican secret.

Preheat the oven at the usual temperature: 350 Fahrenheit/180 Celsius.

Unroll a store-bought pizza pastry sheet in a parchment paper lined 13x8 baking pan. Let rest while you prepare the easiest sauce in the world.

Mix Heinz ketchup, Sriracha and sweet Thai chili sauce. Should yield about a cup - proportions vary according to your own resistance to heat: one of the reasons you should taste your own concoctions and do it often. If you went overboard with the sacred Sriracha, immediately add honey or some brown sugar, until rectified. Add two Tablespoons (30 ml) of EVOO and mix well. Spread on the pizza pastry sheet with your usual brush.

I always try to use this one, but any brand will do:

4. Add the grated Cheddar, with spiral, clockwise movements (this is something I stole from a pizzaiolo in Florence, it is the only way to make sure all the surface gets evenly covered).

5. Thinly cut the onions (you know: halve them, then go ahead exactly like you would do for onion rings or quarter them and go ahead for more caramelized crunchiness, curse TPTB and cry your arse out). Add them on top. I had red onion - it is stellar with cold cuts.

6. Add whatever it is you want to garnish the pizza with. In my pic, we had thinly cut (recycled) debreceni kolbász (Debreziner) sausages and diced Prague/cooked ham (you need something more neutral to counterbalance all that heat).

7. Finish off with 150 grams/5 ounces (drained) canned sweet corn. No particular brand, but make sure it's dry before you add it on top of this.

8. Bake in a very hot oven for about 20 to 25 minutes. Take out, let breathe (5 minutes tops), cut and devour. I guarantee no leftovers.

You're welcome! We'll get to more serious things this evening, though.

Now, this is magnificent. It’s a chateau built in 1996 in Oak Brook, Illinois. Trinity Lakes Chateau has 5bd. 5.5+ba. and is for sale for $2.29M.

Trinity Chateau looks a lot older than it actually is, and is very skillfully built. Look at this magnificent entrance hall. The cement moldings and niches are so skillfully sculpted and the marble floor and curved ceiling are spectacular.

Off the main hall thru double doors is a music room. 

Gracefully swirling staircases to the upper and lower floors. 

The sitting area is stunning. A curved wall of windows is lined with Greek columns and the soaring floor to ceiling fireplace is impressive.

Behind the sitting area is a very sophisticated home office.

The TV room has a more modern look with the mezzanine above, but look at the regal fireplace.

The dining room features a curved ceiling and doors to the patio flanked by large Greek pillars.

The everyday dining area is several steps down from the kitchen. 

The large kitchen features high-end cabinetry, a rustic ceiling, a fabulous niche around the cooktop, plus a fireplace. 

Look at this- a sliding mirror opens to reveal the hidden home theater.

This is the first home theater I’ve seen that has balcony seating.

View of the main floor from the stairs and mezzanine.

The main bd. has a sitting area, fireplace, pitched ceiling with skylights and doors to a terrace.

The large en-suite features a glass shower and a sunken tub.

Off the bath is a walk-in closet/dressing room.

One of the spacious secondary bedrooms with access to the outdoors.

State of the art sauna.

The rooftop deck looks like the Louvre in Paris, with its pyramid.

Behind the home is a pond and you can see the large terraces, all on .52 acres.

Turn Your Home Into an Instant Vacation: A Guide to Creating an At-Home Escape Shaina Tranquilino June 19, 2024

Life can get hectic, and sometimes the idea of a vacation seems like a distant dream. But what if I told you that you could create an instant vacation right in the comfort of your own home? Whether it's a busy schedule, budget constraints, or just a longing for a little relaxation, turning your home into a vacation destination is easier than you think. Here’s how you can transform your space into a haven of relaxation and escape without ever leaving your doorstep.

Set the Scene: Create a Vacation Atmosphere

1. Choose Your Destination

Start by deciding on the vibe you want to emulate. Are you dreaming of a tropical beach, a cozy mountain retreat, or a chic European city? Once you’ve decided, you can start to tailor your home’s ambiance to match.

Tropical Paradise: Bring in the sun with bright, warm colors and plenty of greenery. Think palm leaves, bamboo, and floral prints. You could even add some tiki torches or fairy lights for that extra touch.

Mountain Retreat: Opt for cozy, rustic elements with lots of wood, soft throws, and warm lighting. A fireplace or candles can add a perfect touch of ambiance.

European Escape: Channel the charm of a quaint European village with vintage decor, floral patterns, and perhaps some classic European music playing in the background.

2. Create the Right Ambiance

Mood lighting is key to setting the vacation tone. Here are a few ideas:

Candles and Fairy Lights: These can create a warm, inviting glow. Scented candles can also add an extra layer of relaxation with aromas like lavender, ocean breeze, or jasmine.

Music Playlist: Curate a playlist that matches your destination. Whether it's the sounds of the ocean, jazz for a Parisian feel, or mountain breeze tunes, music can transport you to another place.

Transform Your Space: Little Changes Make a Big Difference

3. Decorate with a Purpose

Small touches can make a huge difference. Here are some ideas:

Textiles and Fabrics: Swap out your usual cushions, throws, and bed linens for ones that match your vacation theme. For a tropical vibe, think bright and bold; for a cozy retreat, go for plush and warm.

Artwork and Posters: Hang some artwork or posters that evoke your chosen destination. It’s a great way to keep the vacation spirit alive.

4. Set Up a Special Space

Designate a spot in your home as your vacation corner. It could be a reading nook, a balcony garden, or even a cozy corner with a hammock or a comfy chair. This space should be your go-to spot for relaxation and unwinding.

Indulge Your Senses: Taste, Smell, and Touch

5. Cook Up a Storm

Food is a big part of any vacation. Try cooking dishes from your chosen destination. Here are some ideas:

Tropical: Think tropical fruit salads, coconut curries, or fresh seafood.

Mountain Retreat: Rustic dishes like stews, grilled meats, or hearty soups.

European: Pasta, cheese boards, or pastries can transport you to the streets of Rome or Paris.

6. Scent Your Home

Scents can be incredibly evocative. Use essential oils, candles, or diffusers to bring the scents of your destination to life.

Tropical: Coconut, pineapple, and mango scents.

Mountain Retreat: Pine, cedarwood, and vanilla.

European: Lavender, rosemary, and fresh bread.

7. Pamper Yourself

Create a spa-like experience at home. Set up a bath with some relaxing bath salts, light some candles, and play soothing music. Treat yourself to a facial or a DIY spa day with masks and scrubs.

Make It Last: Keep the Vacation Spirit Alive

8. Stay in the Moment

Turn off your phone and disconnect from work emails and social media. Dedicate this time to relaxation and enjoying your home-turned-vacation spot.

9. Keep the Vibe Going

Consider making some of these changes permanent. A little vacation flair can make everyday life feel more exciting and relaxing.

Your Home, Your Vacation

Turning your home into an instant vacation spot is not just about creating a new environment; it’s about making time for yourself and enjoying the little things that make you happy. Whether it’s a few hours in a tropical paradise or a weekend in a cozy cabin, your home can be the perfect retreat. So, why wait? Start planning your at-home vacation today and give yourself the break you deserve!

“A couple of miles from Vernonnet, a cluster of houses suddenly appeared. Clemenceau’s driver would have swung left at the fork, heading toward a small church with a squat, octagonal tower and a black witch’s hat of a steeple. Giverny was a village of some 250 inhabitants, with one hundred or so rustic cottages interspersed with more imposing homes set in orchards behind moss-covered walls. The effect, especially for someone coming from Paris, was magical. Visitors unfailingly described Giverny as charming, quaint, picturesque, and an “earthly paradise.” One of Monet’s visitors later enthused in her journal: “This is the land of dreams, the realization of a fairyland.” ― Ross King, Mad Enchantment: Claude Monet and the Painting of the Water Lilies

Bridal Shower Theme Ideas to Inspire Your Perfect Celebration

If you're in charge of planning and hosting a bridal shower, chances are you've been giving possible themes a great deal of thought. This is a party the bride-to-be will remember for the rest of her life, so it makes sense that you want it to be both unforgettable and special. So, how do you throw a bridal shower to remember? Ultimately, your goal should be to plan a party that's reflective of the guest of honor while also pleasing a multi-generational crowd.

Doing so ultimately begins with choosing the right theme. While there's no rule that says you need a theme, having one helps inspire your color palette, décor, games, food, and more. So, if you need inspiration, let these perfect bridal shower theme ideas get your wheels turning.

Champagne Brunch

Your guests will be lining up to say "I do" to a waffle bar and sparkling mimosa station. Serve up beautiful bowls of fruit, fresh pastries, and plenty of chilled champagne.

Nautical Affair

Whether the bride and her shipmates are staying dry on land or heading out on a yacht, you can pull off a nautical bridal shower theme with navy blue hues, stripes, anchors, ship wheels, and sailor's hats. Make sure to add Bobby Darin's "Beyond the Sea" to the playlist.

Beach Bonanza

Like a nautical bridal shower, a beach bridal shower has coastal vibes—but this one is all about sand and sunshine. Create a color palette with aquamarine hues and incorporate seashells and starfish.

Black-Tie Glitter and Glitz

For the bride who loves dressing to the nines, invite guests to get dolled up in their fanciest outfits. Decorate with anything sparkly and glittery, and score definite bonus points if there's a chandelier involved.

Backyard Bliss

Paradise awaits in your own backyard. Transform an outdoor space into a cheerful and relaxed setting for a casual bridal shower. Incorporate fun floral arrangements, twinkle lights, and traditional picnic food. Plus—this is the perfect excuse to give your backyard a makeover.

Tea Party

For the girl who loves all things floral, delicious, and dainty, you should definitely consider a bridal tea party. You can keep it classically British or switch it up with a Mad Hatter theme. Either way, serve a refreshing assortment of artisanal tea, scrumptious scones, and tasty cucumber sandwiches.

Paris Romance

Celebrate love with a shower that pays homage to the city of light and love. Incorporate the Eiffel Tower into the decorations and serve up French wines, cheeses, and desserts. The final touch? Press play on an Édith Piaf recording.

All-White Bridal Shower

The day is fast approaching where the bride is going to wear all white. Get in the spirit with an all-white shower.

Gatsby Bridal Shower

Throw a bridal fête fit for Daisy Buchanan with flapper dresses and feathered headbands. Serve up classic Prohibition cocktails like sidecars (made of cognac, triple sec, and lemon juice) and Gin Rickeys (a combo of gin, lime juice, and seltzer).

Glam Pajama Party

Remember how much fun slumber parties were as a little girl? It'll be an awesome girls' night in, complete with pizza, drinks, candy, games, and a movie (we're thinking Bridesmaids). You can host this at your own home or up the ante and reserve a suite at a hotel for the ultimate chill out session, with the option of spa access to boot (and you won't be the one cleaning up popcorn the next day).

Shabby-Chic

Channel romantically rustic vibes with delicately distressed décor, tea served in mason jars, hand-drawn signage, and baby's breath centerpieces. Add some homemade treats (pie would be oh-so perfect) for a personal touch. You can include the bridesmaids or the whole guest list by inviting everyone to bring their favorite desserts à la a potluck dessert table.

Love Is Sweet

Love is sweet and the bridal shower will be, too. A candy-centered bridal shower lends itself to bright, colorful decorations. Bring on the dessert bar filled with candy and treats. Remember to have some sugar-free candy for any guests with food sensitivities. You can also get customized M&M's in the bride's wedding colors, with her name, or "I Do," or whatever you choose—even an image of the bride (or her spouse-to-be).

Country Chic

For a country-lovin' bride, ask guests to don their cutest cowgirl attire and decorate your space with hay bales, horses, and horseshoes.

Coed Jack and Jill Shower

Who says a bridal shower has to be ladies only? Some couples want to do every wedding activity together, right down to the bridal shower, and there's nothing wrong with that. Make it a coed affair with a Jack and Jill shower. The more the merrier, right?

Creative False Ceiling Design Ideas to Brighten Your Space

False ceilings, also known as drop ceilings, have become a popular choice in modern interior design. They add an elegant touch to your interiors while offering practical benefits such as concealing wiring, improving acoustics, and enhancing lighting. At Audentia Space, the leading interior design company in Hyderabad, we specialize in creating innovative false ceiling design solutions that elevate the beauty of your home or office. Here are some creative ideas to inspire you.

Why Choose False Ceiling Designs for Your Interiors?

False ceilings are not just decorative elements; they are functional and versatile. Here’s why you should consider incorporating them into your space:

Improved Lighting: False ceilings can incorporate recessed lighting, cove lighting, or chandeliers to brighten your interiors effectively.

Concealed Wiring: They hide unsightly electrical wires, pipes, and ducts, giving your space a clean and polished look.

Better Insulation: False ceilings help in temperature regulation, making your interiors energy-efficient.

Enhanced Aesthetics: They add depth and character to any room, transforming a plain ceiling into an eye-catching feature.

Creative False Ceiling Design Ideas

1. Minimalistic Gypsum False Ceilings

Gypsum is a popular material for false ceilings due to its lightweight and smooth finish. A simple and clean gypsum false ceiling design adds elegance to any room, especially if you prefer a minimalistic look. Consider incorporating LED strip lights around the edges to create a soft, ambient glow. This design works particularly well in living rooms and bedrooms.

2. Layered Ceilings for a Dynamic Effect

For a dramatic and dynamic look, opt for a layered false ceiling design. This involves multiple levels of ceilings arranged in creative patterns, such as concentric circles or geometric shapes. Layered ceilings create depth and dimension, making them ideal for large spaces like dining areas or office lobbies. Pair this design with pendant lighting for an added touch of sophistication.

3. Wooden False Ceilings for a Natural Vibe

If you want to bring warmth and natural charm into your interiors, a wooden false ceiling design is an excellent choice. Wood panels or beams can be installed to create a rustic or contemporary look, depending on your style. This design complements both modern and traditional interiors, making it a versatile option.

4. Coffered Ceilings for Timeless Elegance

Coffered ceilings feature a grid of sunken panels that exude timeless sophistication. This false ceiling design is perfect for spacious rooms, such as dining halls or living areas, as it adds a touch of grandeur. For a modern twist, consider painting the panels in contrasting colors or using textured finishes.

5. POP Ceilings with Intricate Patterns

Plaster of Paris (POP) is a versatile material that allows for intricate designs and patterns. From floral motifs to abstract shapes, a POP false ceiling design can make your interiors truly unique. This style is ideal for creating a focal point in bedrooms or decorative hallways. Complement it with recessed lighting to highlight the details.

6. Floating Ceilings for a Futuristic Look

A floating false ceiling design creates an illusion of the ceiling hovering above the room. This is achieved by using concealed lighting around the edges, giving your space a modern and futuristic vibe. This design is particularly effective in home theaters, gaming rooms, or contemporary living spaces.

7. Starry Night Ceilings for Kids’ Rooms

Transform your child’s bedroom into a magical haven with a starry night false ceiling design. Use fiber-optic lighting to mimic the look of twinkling stars, creating a dreamy ambiance. This design not only adds charm but also makes bedtime an enchanting experience for kids.

8. Creative Shapes and Themes

False ceilings don’t have to stick to traditional patterns. Experiment with creative shapes, such as waves, curves, or thematic designs like clouds or floral motifs. These unique false ceiling designs are ideal for creative spaces, cafes, or children’s playrooms, adding a playful and artistic touch.

Tips for Choosing the Perfect False Ceiling Design

Match Your Interior Theme: Ensure the false ceiling complements the overall design and color palette of your interiors.

Consider Ceiling Height: Low-ceiling spaces may benefit from minimalistic designs, while higher ceilings can accommodate layered or coffered styles.

Choose the Right Material: Gypsum, POP, and wood are some of the best materials for false ceilings. Select one based on durability, cost, and aesthetics.

Lighting Matters: Integrate the right lighting to enhance the visual appeal and functionality of your false ceiling.
