"I consider Rustique to be a boutique," she explains. "I don't
want mass-produced items, and I want to stay true to our brand of
vintage and rustic. We curate every piece, so if we add it, we absolutely
love it. Some items – like the glassware – I've collected one piece at

have their own history and their own story."
Perhaps the best illustration of Kayla's talents can be seen on
Rustique's website, www.rustiquemontana.com. "e photo on the

décor you see there. Our goal is to make customers' events above
and beyond their expectations. We don't take shortcuts, and we are
invested in their projects from start to finish. It's all in the details," she
emphasizes. " at's where the "wow" comes from!"
