Complementary Colors

I have been so excited to share these pictures. I did these two small weddings in November and loved how both of them turned out. The yellow and gray wedding is the same one that I blogged about the centerpieces here. If you saw my post about succulents the other day then you know why I am in love with this bouquet.

The purple bouquet was completely different but I am equally in love. It was so different than your typical bouquet but I LOVED how it turned out. It was edgy and so fun. It had some fun flowers in it too: pin cushion flowers, coxcomb, awesome purple vanda orchids, purple cabbages, anemones, some callas, lacy dusty miller, and peacock feathers. The shape was fun too. The bride wanted a little bit of a cascade so I did sort of a modern assymetrical version since cascading bouquets are actually coming back. Like I said, LOVE. I was SO mad I didn't get my own pictures of this one. I knew the pictures of the yellow bouquet would be AWESOME because my same wedding photographer took them (Gallery Photography) and Kelly is amazing. But I don't think the pictures of the purple one do it justice. There isn't really a picture of it at it's best angle. Cascading bouquets are hard because they technically have a "right" front side. But anyway, it was so great in person. Here are the pics so take a peek and tell me what you think!

Table & Chair Matchup

The dining room is one place people really do their home a disservice.  How? They have a matching dining set, a generic light fixture, and no rug under their table.  Raise your hand if that's you.  Don't worry, you're not alone.  Just by adjusting those 3 things (mix up your chairs, add a fun light fixture, add a rug) you can really revamp your dining room.  Just bought your dining set and can't afford new chairs?  Easy.  Keep your side chairs, but find some upholstered chairs to add as captain's chairs on each end of the table.  It will mix it up just enough! Plus you'll have 2 extra chairs when you have guests over.  Another option is painting your chairs a different color from your table and add some fun cushions or reupholstering the seats.                                             ...
