Sometimes it’s those little details that make all the difference, especially when it comes to decorating the home.
Denise Milano and Cathi Sabin, co-owners of CoCo Milano’s, in The Village at Las Sendas, make use of this concept with every project.
“Adding tables, chairs and other furniture definitely shakes things up,” said Denise. “But the magic really happens when you add all the accessories and find that perfect arrangement.” The fun is in all the little details. Whether it is your great-grandmother’s antique clock or one of your favorite collectables, everyone loves conversation starters, and what better way to achieve this than through your accessories.
That’s precisely what the creative team at CoCo Milano’s does for their clients. Specializing in heirloom quality furniture and accessories, as well as fantastic fabrics and paints, they can help you find just the right items to complement each other. They also are happy to work with your existing items.
“We look for things that are both classic and different—things that enhance each customer’s unique style,” stated Denise. “Many of the home décor items we offer, you just can’t find anywhere.”
Good design doesn’t have to end at the door. Many items today are made for outdoor entertaining, so you can have your style encompass both the indoors and out. Because residents practically live outside, Denise loves Arizona. “I bring bits of the outside into my interiors,” she said. “One of my favorite tricks is incorporating our bright desert ocotillo green into the home through plants and accessories, which helps blend the inside with the outdoors. This theory also works in reverse,” Denise continued. “Your outdoor living spaces should be an extension of your home.”
Often, customers have an idea of what they want, but aren’t quite sure how to pull it all together to create their own signature style. According to Denise, it all starts with a focal point, perhaps in the form of a table, a light fixture or some other feature within the home. If you aren’t sure which direction to go, show Denise a picture of your favorite piece, and she can point you in the right direction.
