to the happy couple

It's suddenly got very wedding focused around here! This wedding was probably my biggest project of the year. The lovely couple came to meet with me to talk wedding stationery and by the end of our time together I'd signed up for styling and making the decor. This was something I'd been itching to do for a long time! The lovely couple got married in the summer and it was one of those sweet times when you already know both bride and groom, not to mention their families. It's always special designing in those situations. I already guessed Sarah would be wanting her day to be cute and girly so pinks and pastels were on the agenda and then this was mixed with quite a rustic vibe.
As for the details from the day, keep an look out for my next post. It's a big one! If you're getting married and you like what you see send me an email via the contact button for further details. 

late summer picnic

I’ve been gathering and making some things for a styled picnic for quite a while now but with an August full of weddings and disappointing weather in between, it was only last weekend that I got around to doing it. Sunday was a surprise scorcher which was perfect! So here’s a sunny idea for a DIY picnic and I’m sure the concept would work just as well in your back garden for a few friends. In my next post I’ll let you know how to make the bits and pieces and the labels and invites will be available as a free download. Enjoy!
There’s nothing quite like homemade guacamole on a hot day. That’s actually quite a bold statement but it really is up there. Mexicans know how to cater for heat. The chilli kick and zesty lime keep the dip really fresh. I’ve only found out why people leave the avocado stone in the dip. It’s to stop the avocado going brown! Call me stupid but I just thought it was for decoration.
