For the 2016 Indianapolis Home Show, Fischer Homes is again debuting an all-new
home design for this year’s Centerpiece Home: the Allerton. It is built
entirely inside Exposition Hall at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.
What’s this majestic 4,010-square-foot home look like as its
coming together? Check out these photos!
A European Romantic elevation with soaring rooflines and a painted
brick exterior, the Allerton boasts four bedrooms and 3½ baths spread across a
majestic 4,010 square feet. It features an expansive great room and adjoining kitchen,
ground floor study, formal dining room and family gathering room. The second
floor master suite, including spa-like bathroom and large walk-in closet with
adjoining laundry, is accompanied by two child bedrooms, boy and girl, and a
guest room.
“With its eye-pleasing mix of form and function, the Allerton is
sure to inspire Home Show attendees,” said Indianapolis Market President for
Fischer Homes Brad Kriner. “We invite everyone to come to the show and see how
Fischer Homes is working to give people the opportunity to create their dream
home.”

There’s less than two weeks until Thanksgiving – are you
ready? You may have your menu planned, but that’s not the only important thing
that goes on your table. This year set your tables to stun with some simple
ideas that are sure to compliment every feast. Check out some of our favorite
tablescapes below and get ready to wow friends and family on the 26th.
All That Glitters is Gold
– Traditional pumpkins and pine cones with a fabulous touch of luxury. We love
the effortlessness of this look. It’s easy to recreate and will have a big
impact on your table.

Bring the Outdoors In
– Bright greens, fragile florals, and a hint of copper make for an excellent
combination. Though there are some bold pinks and reds, this mix is fairly
subtle and a lovely one to try this Thanksgiving.

Keep it Subtle - If
you think gold is more gaudy than gorgeous, this centerpiece will be right up
your alley. We’re fans of the burlap table runner and simple mix of earthy
colors. This is the perfect setting for a rustic Thanksgiving.

Gourd-geous Vases –
Simply put, we are in love with these vases! They’d make a fabulous addition to
any table (Thanksgiving or not). The rich oranges, greens, and purples play off
each other so nicely, and using a gourd as a vase is such a fantastically
creative DIY – we can’t get over it.

Food for Thought –
Why not incorporate some of your Thanksgiving dinner ingredients into your centerpiece?
As you can see, artichokes, beans, and asparagus make lovely candle holders!

Rich & Rustic
– We’ve got a penchant for plaid, and we’re not afraid to show it! The
eucalyptus, walnuts and pine corn create a fantastic rustic scene. All it needs
is some turkey!
We hope these ideas help inspire you to create a beautiful
table this year. We’d love to see your Thanksgiving tablescapes. Share your
best shots with @HomeShows on Instagram and Twitter – we love to see how you
celebrate!

Ikebana is the art of Japanese flower arranging. This technique uses simplicity to maximize the overall look of the arrangement. Walking the line between traditional and contemporary, these rare creations transform unique flowers into artistic displays.
In 1927, Sofu Teshigahara founded the Sogetsu School in Japan. He believed that Ikebana is a form of living sculpture and a reflection of the person who arranges it. In 1986, Mrs. Kita and a small group of students founded the Colorado Branch of Sogetsu. To this day the school still practices some of the traditional concepts, including asymmetry and open space and depth. Modern society appeals to this style or arranging because it favors creations without restraint, "free creation".
Now you can learn how to achieve this look in your home. The Sogetsu school of Ikebana will be doing a special demonstration this weekend at the Denver Home Show. We are so excited to have the Sogetsu School join us, as they raise interest and awareness to the art of Ikebana.
Join the Sogetsu School of Ikebana at the Denver Home Show, March 20-22 at the National Western Complex, and learn how to create your own masterpieces. Don't have tickets yet? Get 2-for-1 on Facebook.

Would you like to see what's in store for the dining room selections for the 2015 Indianapolis Home Show Centerpiece Home? The Touch of Class team has a first look!
Part of the "Modern Hill-Country" theme, home show attendees will be treated to a romantic feel with very dark walls and a ceiling covered in distressed linen-colored tiles.
For the decor, the design team is using an amazing key chandelier that is imaginative and full of drama. The Irving chandelier features a wrought-iron frame hand-finished in a burnished finish. Cast-zing keys are made to look vintage by way of hand-applied antique wash and are then carefully hung at varying heights from the chandelier.
And there will be no rectangle table when it comes to furniture! The home will have a dramatic 60" round table with natural linen chairs. Plus, a very unique feature to the Centerpiece Home Paxton floor plan from Fischer Homes will be two large built-in cabinets covered in reclaimed wood.
Are you interested in adding any of these items to your own home? You can! They will be available for purchase here! And don't forget to come see the finished product at the 2015 Indianapolis Home Show!
Stay tuned for more pieces being used in the Centerpiece Home at the Indianapolis Home Show! The show takes over the Indiana State Fairgrounds January 23 - February 1, 2015. Don't have tickets yet?

With November
in full swing there’s one thing on the minds of Americans: turkey. There are
just a few short weeks until Thanksgiving – are you ready? You might have your
menu planned, your shopping list written, and your guests RSVP’d, but we doubt
your table’s set. Finding the perfect centerpiece for your Thanksgiving dinner
can be a tricky task. There are a lot of requirements to fill: size, style, and
more.
Of the
choices below, which would you seat friends and family around? Does one feel
more festive than the other? Do you prefer Option A’s colorful theme? Or are
you more partial to Option B’s simplicity? Which one makes you want to say all
the things you’re thankful for?
Option A

Option B
Image via Karin Lidbeck-Brent
Our Choice:
Although both
centerpieces are beautiful, (you really can’t make a wrong choice in our
opinion), we prefer Option A. One of the best things about fall is the colors.
While there’s much to be said about subtlety, it’s hard to deny the rich reds,
oranges, and greens featured in Option A.
Which would
you rather have? What will your Thanksgiving table look like? Are you big on
place settings or is the food really the main event? Let us know below!
