Home & Garden: Jewels on the Bay

Two beautiful homes on Lido Key are being featured as the designer showhouses for the 18th annual Jewels on the Bay. The annual event benefits the Boys & Girls Clubs of Manatee and Sarasota counties.

The two homes featured in the tour boast different architectural styles and features. The Morris home is a 6,400-square-foot Mediterranean-style home, for which 16 spaces were redesigned by 12 designers. The Marr home is a 5,500-square-foot ranch-style home, for which 14 spaces were redesigned by 12 designers.

Though many designers took part in the event, they made sure to make a point to work together to give the rooms a cohesive style for better flow.
