Fun Find: Kokeshi Doll Gift Bags

I have been seeing kokeshi dolls pop up everywhere these days. I just came across these kokeshi doll gift bags and I had to share them with you. They are absolutely adorable & super affordable. I could see them incorporated into so many different types of parties...a children's tea party, a sushi party, an around the world event. They could be used simply as a party favor bag, or why not set them up as a collection on a mantlepiece, or have them line the middle of a table serving as a centerpiece. You could play off the fun colors in the design of the bags with a color palette of soft pink, brighter pink, a soft buttery yellow and an accent of black.  I love that they are made of 100% recycled hand made paper consisting of cotton fabric remnants with traditional silk screen printing. Pretty amazing.

Oh so natural

I really wish I could say that Atelier Joya posts about three blogs a week!!! We certainly have enough ideas and photos to do so but where does the time go??? Lisa and I have been so busy with all the inquiries coming our way that something had to give. However our net motto: blogging has to fit into our schedule :

Here is a little sneak preview of a really fun natural wedding up in the wine country, stay tuned.

Sketch to Creation

Our client loved cupcakes and she loved silver. Incorporating silver tiered dessert trays, mirrored glass risers and lots of lush white florals we created an elegant display for all of the tasty treats. It's always fun to look at the original sketch and compare it to the final creation.

Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

We had the opportunity to design flowers and a red ribbon chandelier for a corporate hotel ribbon cutting ceremony. Splashes of white, red and dark brown added to the modern, sleek and sophisticated look the client wanted. It was a great success and all were happy.

White and Green

 

Always fun to play with bear grass! In this arrangement I used bear grass, succulents, hydrangea, snow ball and eucalyptus pods.

Playful Modern Mantle Decor

 

Priska created such a fun mantle display for a spring installation. The color palette of soft gray, bright yellow, and a soft coral color made all of us smile. :)
