Lead paint poisoning affects over one million children today. Learning disabilities, hearing loss, speech delays, violent behavior and, in rare cases, seizures and even death: these are just some of the effects lead paint poisoning has on young children. If your home was built before 1978, lead paint on your walls, doors, windows and sills may be dangerous. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just large paint chips that can cause damage. In fact, three granules of lead dust are enough to poison your child. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s make all kids lead-free kids. To learn more about the simple steps you can take to safeguard your family, log on to LEADFREEKIDS.org or call 800-424-LEAD.

HiLight Installations Helping Make Memories It’s fitting that a business focused on helping people make memories was born out of true love. “Though I was born on Kauai to a family that goes back 10 generations, I grew up in Lake Tahoe, California and Reno, Nevada before making my way back to Kauai in 2013,” says Alyssa Wichman. “During a chance dinner party with friends, I met Aaron.” Aaron is Aaron Herndon, who made his way to Kauai from Phoenix in 2007. By the time the two met, Herndon had been making quite the name for himself in the Hawaiian event industry, especially as a craftsman. “From that night, we were inseparable. I even started working with Aaron. Learning from the smartest man I know, I began whetting my teeth in the industry myself,” says Wichman, who began helping with a generator rental company for events Herndon bought in 2014. Earlier this year, with a now-combined 15 years of experience on Kauai under their belts (as well as an adorable two-year-old son named Action), the now-engaged couple made the jump to launch HiLight Installations. “We are an event lighting and design company with specialized experience in outdoor weddings, corporate events, private parties and custom eco-friendly floral installations like nothing you’ve seen before. We are committed to evolving with the trends and offering the highest quality event decor and design to everyone we can, regardless of their budget,” says Wichman. The business has seven major service lines.

Specialty Lighting. The first thing guests often do when they walk into a tent is look up. HiLight ensures the view is something otherworldly, offering custom lighting options that run the gamut from twinkle lights, Greenery adorned Café, lighted chandeliers and more.

Fabric Draping. Lush and dramatic, fabric draping sets the vibe – and often a pop of color or shade from the sun – at a wedding or event. HiLight uses high-end chiffon draping to transform and soften event tents.

Structures, Lounge, Bars, & Arbors. Dreaming of an intimate beach elopement? Hosting a Modern Tropical Bohothemed beach party, complete with chic outdoor lounge? Wichman and Herndon can make any vision come to life with their customizable 10-foot structures saturated in chiffon, Hand built designer bars & Arbors, as well as, our new live edge slab coffee and end tables. Tables. Concrete is all the rage in the design world and HiLight has engineered a way to infuse it into your event. Stunning concrete tables on pedestal legs with a matching bar top are the perfect touch for the more design conscious client. They also have matching Farm Tables on pedestal legs, mix and match or just pick one- you can’t go wrong. Finish it off with a chiffon or gauze runner, and you have magic.

Aerial Florals & Statement Pieces. HiLight’s design team works directly with the client to create custom floral installations they could only dream of. They are responsible for creating many breath taking floral & greenery chandeliers with their internal team utilizing their custom designed wooden trusses, 10 December 2018 | hawaiihealthandliving.com
