Backyard Bliss, fun in the sun!

Today I thought I would share a project that I completed in the sun! It is also a portfolio piece, it showcases my table top design skills as well as my styling abilities! Hope you enjoy it!

I started out knowing I was going to do it in my backyard. There for I already had a set colour palette. Blues and oranges, they are complimentary colours so I knew it would work out for the best!

All of this had a very beachy feel with a sense of chicness. Starfish are one of my favourite things and these glass dishes were just to die for! I though they were the cutest things ever! I really tried to incorporate the colours and have some accents too, I wanted a variety of textures as well. The tweed string played a great role and really reinforced the look i was trying to achieve! Overall it went very well although it was a hot day!

Keep checking in! soon enough I will post the pictures from my graduation pool party event that I styled, coordinated, planned, and baked for!

Surprise!

So the long awaited photos of the 50th surprise party are here! Excuse the photographs if they aren't the best - sorry! Some background information the theme was originally to be purple as that is her favourite colour with charcoal grey and gold accents. Unfortunately seat covers for the chairs were not in the bit so the colour palette had to be tweaked to accommodate this. The chairs were a red burgundy with gold accents so I pulled out the gold and made that the main focus. I then incorporated a golden orange to accent the tone of the red burgundy. I also used a lot of cream to add dimension to the dark richer tones within the chairs. So here are the final pictures! All Via Moi!

All the desserts are home made except the two cakes, then i would have gone crazy making desserts and baking! Otherwise I made it all, I also made all the label tags that are in such great shapes! Hope you liked my ideas! and get some inspiration from it! Soon to come 2 room sets/event planning posts!

Talk to You Soon,

Compositional Graphics

As I told you I have some graphic compositions in store, the first was done for my mother as the graphics are predesigned by her company I composed them with her title etc.. to create the following for her to use as her twitter picture, Facebook, other social media sites, business card, etc..

I have also done a few other minor compositions of graphics which I will soon post as I am awaiting the final touches to be finished on them!

A few tips:

1 - when working with composition it is important that everything flows

2 - symmetry is important whether it be asymmetrical, radial, etc..

3 - have fun with it and also get a second set of eyes on it

I am sure there are many other tips to be given but essentially it is all about the principles and laments of design and how they effect what you are working on, but otherwise these are the tips and tricks I constantly try to follow that I find the most useful.

Talk to You Later,
