MORE WEDDINGS


Sometimes a girls gotta have TWO parties!


Hailey chose a rustic theme for her California party...




The Gorgeous Backyard Wedding for Tiffany
I'm often reminded that our world is really quite small.
Kind of like that annoyingly creepy ride at Disneyland with all the dolls.  (I could have an adverse reaction to Its a Small World After All because I was once stranded in the ride for what seemed years before we were rescued by staff, with that endlessly repeating song with the creepy child-like voices in my ears...)


Tiffany, met a great guy from the UK,
who just happened to be from the exact same town -
actually the same part of the same town -
that I lived in when I was 8 or 9 years old.
Good ol' Tilehurst, Reading, England!

It really is a small world after all!



My challenge was to incorporate the driftwood,
beach glass and shells they collected with his two daughters into the wedding decor.



It was a very fun project!




The last wedding of 2019 was a seasonal wedding
Just a few days after Christmas
We used white flowers,
fresh greens and pine cones
and a pop of red berries




Such a sweet wedding!




The Bridal Shower
somewhere in between all the weddings, we hosted a Bridal Shower.
We chose a brunch theme and spent HOURS deciding what to eat.
Food is the BEST, isn't it?
My dear friend Linda made nearly all of the food, and it was delish!


A little humor never hurts...

 Favors for each guest!

The end.  Whew!

DESIGN FOR A NEW HOME WITH A CASUAL COASTAL VIBE

So happy to have time finally to post these photos of some of my projects...
starting with this brand new home 


I loved the open floor plan of this home.  Lots of lovely light, and the flooring was a little rustic with a slight gray wash to give it a casual, beachy feel - but just a little.  A nod to the coast with driftwood toned woods and soft grayed down colors...

With no existing colors or furnishings to contend with - I had the blissful freedom to make it exactly how my client wanted it...

Here are the photos, (by photographer Shawna Henrie of Bleudog Fotography)
starting at the entry...











The entry looks straight into the dining area, which is open to the kitchen and living areas - one big wonderful space...

The table is reclaimed elm
chairs are linen







 The curtains are linen.












 Gray, cream, taupe and pops of mustard create a soothing palette
the sofa is in an easy care microfibre fabric that looks like a woven fabric
(and doesn't show handprints everywhere)











The kitchen is a vision in white..












In keeping with the rustic beach feel, driftwood toned rush seated counter stools...

Thank you Vicki for letting us invade your home...
