Modern Design

We recently did the decor, styling and florals for a corporate metting here in the dogpatch. We transformed a working studio into a serene space filled with soft natural light and bold modern arrangements. To hang giant product shots and photos for the client, we built stands from galvanized metal pipe. Long black metal containers filled with white carnation and ruby red rose hips ran the length of a industrial metal conference table. Fluttering white panels of snow camo converted this office space into a modern setting for this event.  By balancing soft white with bright red and industrial metal we created an aesthetic that was both bold and modern and feminine at the same time!

DIY Glitter Table Numbers

Made these gorgeous glitter table numbers today with a few simple craft store items...
Found this amazing new glitter spray called Gitter Blast by Krylon at Arch. You have to get the glitter blast line, I was blown away by the saturation, coverage and sparkle!!!! I did 13 table numbers and bases with just one can.

Start with wooden craft letters from Michaels about 2.99 a letter. If you can find paper mache ones that would work too.

Hot glue the numbers onto these little wooden plaques with a beveled egde about 80 cents a plaque, also at Michaels.

Do a light to medium spray of regular gold spray paint. I just did this as a precaution so as not to use as much glitter spray. I may not have even needed this base coat, but its good for any missed spots. Once base coat dries its time for...

GLITTER!!!!! Spray on the glitter blast. The paint goes on thick and covers beautifully. It dries quickly too and doesn't shed! Seriously this is the most amazing glitter spray ever.  One tip is it sprays on kinda foamy. Dont' spray too close or you get little bubbles or drips.

These would be great in letter stoo for a birthday, anniversary, new years party etc... think 2012 in glitter!!!!!
