RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE GALA


We are so proud to participate in the amazing organization, The Ronald McDonald House on Long Island.  Last year we participated in an event where designers were chosen to created a fun vignette that was actioned off for the charity.  This year they chose another set of designers to design table scapes for the same purpose- each to be auctioned off to raise money for the terrific cause.   Above is our inspiration for our table.  We wanted it to be fresh and fun, with pretty pieces that people would want to purchase.  We love the combination of blue and green together it is classic and beautiful.  A big thank you to Cowtan & Tout for the beautiful napkins, Elite Tent & Party Rental for the lucite chairs & Scarsella Floral's for the gorgeous arrangements.

If you don't know about the Ronald McDonald House here is a little background.  The house provides  a "home away from home" for all family members of children that are sick and going through treatment.   They are able to stay at the house, free of charge, for as long as they need.  The rooms were all decorated by designers over the years to create a happy, stress free environment for these families who are going through so much.  Every year we are humbled by the people we meet at this organization who have dedicated their lives to making other peoples lives a little easier.

THE RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE


Giving back is extremely important to my mom & I.  It is the main reason we participate in the number of show houses we do each year.  It is cleansing for your soul to donate time, money or whatever you can to something you truly believe in.  

The Ronald McDonald House is one of the most amazing charities I have come across.  Each year they help thousands of families dealing with the financial strain of childhood illness.  They provide so much help to families in need including, but not limited to  housing and financial help for entire families while their child is undergoing medical care.  This fall we are taking part in a special event where designers create little vignettes in which every item will be auctioned off to benefit the charity.  We've been lucky and very appreciative to all vendors willing to donate.  Above is our inspiration board thus far.  We wanted to create a bright and cheery room and cannot wait to be a part of helping to raise money for such a beautiful organization.
