'Rebel with a Cause’ Presents a Truly Special, Holiday Healing Collective Meditation by: Kihew Therapy & Wellness Inc. Crystal Bowl Sound Journeys

The holidays are hectic! We extend this healing, sacred evening for you to gift YOURSELF, and in doing so, also send an amazing gift to women in severe need. Be gently led into the calming, ethereal presence of Alisa Farr and Cameron Hayward's Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls which vibrate to balance and detoxify the body’s energy, help release emotional trauma, calm anxiety, increase sleep quality and connection to self, while guiding us into a state of wholeness and light that has a magical ripple effect of healing in our community.

100% of Ticket Sales are being donated to 'Rebel with a Cause' to facilitate a series of inspirational art meditation workshops for Karis Support Society - a non-profit organization that provides recovery-focused counselling, housing, support and programming resources for women in our community who are struggling.

We are raffling off a divinely-inspired talisman mala necklace. Created by Alisa Farr for her Embody Malas collection, this piece contains 131 semiprecious stones, metals and crystals. ‘Speak’ came to life and is intended for the courageous woman who speaks her truth and in the process, heals herself. This talisman is a reminder of inner strength, empowerment and the ability for one’s voice to free their soul. Created with Divine intention, deep ritual and activation, the energy this mala carries is very powerful.
Value: $575.
Raffle tickets are CASH only at the door. $10/ticket or $20/3 tickets or message us to purchase your's online if you can't make the event!

We will have a ‘feel good bank’ box collecting small holiday presents for the women at Karis - if you feel inclined, please bring something to donate (ex: toiletries, soft goods, books, healthy treats, apparel, journals, etc..)

Can’t wait to share this special evening with you!

Curating and installing photowalls creates such an immediate sense of gratification for my clients and I! They can make a new home instantly feel grounded and inspiring. They can remind us of how far we’ve come, what matters most, and of our best memories with family and friends. They give us perspective on our journeys, our past and our potentials. They evolve, grow with us, and ultimately bring us back to center during our stressful lives. There is a science to creating these pieces of art - they aren’t easy and they take a lot of emotion and intention. I love providing this small gift to my clients in their sacred spaces.

Even during 14hr work days, you have to take time to pull over and ‘grab the shot’ when you see it. We have so much here in .

Check out this hot, new Royal Lepage Kelowna Geoff Treadgold listing on 827 Saucier Road, homestaging by Rock House Style Sam Shakura. Beautiful location and modern amenities!

When we stage a property- we are conscious to keep it clean, fresh and inviting but do not go along with the commonly perceived rule to keep it completely boring! We feel that by having a few statement, unique pieces helps the potential buyer envision their treasured items also working in the space, and leaves a lasting impression of a home that’s been designed and curated - as opposed to decorated or simply ‘filled’.

Our showcase event ‘Crystalline’ in support of Aaron K Metz was magical! It was special to see so many beautiful souls supporting Aaron’s art and investing in original, crystal-infused work by this amazing local artist. Through curating this experience for our friends and clients - we met the most inspiring, heart-led people who helped make the evening as unique and uplifting as it was. If you would still like to purchase a piece of Aaron’s art (values of $85 - $18,500) but were unable to attend our private showcase - special Rock House Style pricing will remain in effect until August 15th. When beautifying your home and office spaces with art you love, why not have the extra added bonus of crystal healing and positive energy that continuously transmits from Aaron’s art?!?

We would like to thank our volunteers, supporters and the following people who we encourage everyone to visit privately to experience their incredible services.

Only 3 more days until Crystalline at Rock House Style; an exclusive, enchanted lakefront art show showcasing one of my favorite local Rebel With A Cause artists Aaron K Metz. Aaron and his crystal-enhanced artwork leave such a positive impact on our community and we cannot wait to help our friends pick out the perfect original piece to bring home! After selling out of tickets- we have added 30 more spots for those last-minute people who haven’t secured their access to this private Rock House gallery curated event. Thank you for supporting your local artists and thumbs up to all those who understand the power and significance of having intentional, high frequency and beautiful art and decor in their sacred spaces! xo Sam

Is anyone designing a new closet, shopping for unique storage solutions or looking for some amazing, budget-friendly organizing advice? DM me for a invite to a private Stor-X Organizing Systems & Rock House Style collab event June 21st.

When you and your man are fighting over who gets the office with the glowing natural light and pretty lake view... you tag it and throw some leopard paper on the wall!

Looking for the perfect present for Mother's / Father's Day? A 'Family Wall of Fame' by Rock House Style is an amazing idea! Check out my article in the latest issue of ICON Okanagan Magazine for tips on creating your own or DM me to schedule a consult to help you create this special wall at home.

Very rarely do we build, renovate or decorate a personal residence without incorporating a family ‘wall of fame’ photowall. These special collections of photographs always make a house feel like a home (it’s one of the first things we do if a client has moved into a new space and has anxiety about the property not yet feeling comfortable or personalized) and more often than not, we get an overwhelmed-with-emotion reaction when we install these walls for our clients (cue: happy tears!). We all have photographs from our childhood, our travels, old black and whites passed down from our family, and current photos filling up our smartphones – but it’s hard to know where to begin putting together a medley of images, in one collection, displayed in a creative and beautiful gallery wall. While they often look casual and haphazardly-placed, there is a science to creating a harmonious photowall. The secret is finding the perfect balance between frame styles, photography and spacing.

With all the craziness happening in our world... in our market... in our daily lives... I periodically feel like posting about my design and art work seems trivial and frivolous. And then I am reminded of the soul-level impact our homes have on our moods, health and relationships.

Beauty and style are not superficial concepts, they are direct reflections our "interior" design (ie: how we feel on the inside). We cannot control the government, or the news, or the sh*tty things people do "out there"- but we can control how our homes- the homes we all have the power to create for ourselves and our loved ones- make us feel, and thrive.

I feel lucky to be welcomed into so many different individuals lives, with that power to help elevate their personal sanctuary's. To help them create beautiful and interesting spaces that speak to their hearts, inspire their minds, and support them in being the best version of themselves. Design is an intimate process; one where the designer becomes an expert on how a client lives, what they cherish most, and how many pairs of underwear are in their closet drawers. We have to evaluate so many things to get it right, to ensure a home speaks to that person, fits their lifestyle, and lifts them up. It's a challenging but immensely rewarding career that demands I constantly balance my business mind with my creative one.

Here's to the well-rounded spaces out there, the ones that you walk into and just instantly feel at peace, the ones with purposeful details that take your breath away. It's not about spending a zillion dollars, or creating perfect rooms where everything matches and the decor is neutral enough to please everyone ; it's about creating rooms with soul, with patina and with character so that they tell a story and make you feel something. When design matters and you fill your home with colors, textures, things, and people you love- it becomes a living canvas; an ever-evolving curation of your life.
