The popular IMAGES Boutique is included in your tour and features handmade items created by ACA Volunteer League Members.

The IMAGES Holiday Tour of Homes is the main fundraiser for IMAGES: A Festival of the Arts.

Tour includes:

 

The Lynn Home

This amazing designer created the home of her dreams. With hard work, good friends and an eye for details, her 1970’s ranch was completely remodeled into an airy coastal retreat. Enjoy her unique finds and fixtures—each painstakingly sought, found, and restored.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Rausch Home

Decorated by Pink Flamingo at Petals

Affectionately named “The Artists Cottage,” this 1915 home is a place of creativity and wonder. Shiplap wood, original windows and period touches preserve the integrity of this complete renovation. Twists and turns full of whimsical touches will lead you to the artist’s studio and a secret garden.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Mahood Home

The homeowners first met and fell in love while visiting New Smyrna Beach 43 years ago. With the help of Hickson Construction, they later transformed this original 1920’s Mediterranean into a Southern Traditional charmer. Wrap-around porches and sentimental touches have turned their former family get-a-way into their forever home-to-stay.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Hess Home

Decorated by the homeowner and friends

This lovely New Englander’s beach retreat embraces Florida Living. Built in 2012 by Brent Walters, the colorful, open-concept home wraps around a pool and an outdoor kitchen, artfully blending indoor and outdoor spaces. A visual guest book graces the back fence with keepsakes from visiting friends.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Gatchel Home

Decorated by Pink Flamingo at Petals

Recapturing the memories of earlier years spent fishing and surfing in New Smyrna Beach, the owners designed and located this home close to the beach and on the ICW with extraordinary river views.  Decorated in Coastal Hampton style, this contemporary six-bedroom house by Dave Brewer incorporates large open areas, expansive windows, soaring ceilings, original artwork, and unique lighting and designer touches to create a casual and inviting ambience. As you tour this home, you will enjoy piano and vocals by local singer-songwriter Mary Beth Koplin.

Mary Beth Koplin, BA is a singer-songwriter from New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Her passion is music and her songs will inspire and delight you. As a child she played the family’s old Baldwin spinet and sang harmony, while her Mother sang the lead from pop music, show tunes and church worship. Song after song grew into a lifestyle that propelled Mary Beth to graduate from Regents College, Albany, New York with a degree in music performance.  Mary Beth’s fans find a place for themselves in her music. As she says, “I think that the best music takes a personal experience and makes it universal. It’s not me performing, but all of us sharing life together, through the songs.”  For a fun and deeply emotional experience, listen to some of her songs by visiting her website: www.marybethmuse.com
