Yellow, grey and white seems to be a very popular color pallete for summer weddings. This board was designed for a couple of my summer brides.

inspiration board: a summer wedding

I made this board for one of my summer brides. Her colors are pastel orange and green, and white. It is set at the beautiful mt.hood bed and breakfast... which is where i got married almost 4 years ago! What do you think?

inspiration board: vintage sweetheart

So i am totally inspired by valentines right now. Maybe it's the new floral job i got to help with the valentines rush, or maybe it's the romantic feeling i get when looking at pretty valentinesy things. Either way, I'm loving pink, and I'm not usually a pink girl, but i like it a lot more then red roses... thus this board was born.

inspiration board: in the need for color

I don't know about you all, but I am sick of these dark, rainy days. I am ready for the energy of the sun. Ready to spend all day at the park, reading and watching the clouds make shapes in the sky. This inspiration board was inspired by my need for some color.

inspiration board #5: the beach

It seems like EVERYONE in Portland is going to the beach this weekend, last chance before it starts raining....everyone except me. (enter sad face here) I am in the process of moving to Eugene and so therefore will not be going to the beach, so instead I made this inspiration board.

Inspiration board # 4: end of summer love

Believe me I am so not ready for summer to be over!!! Especially for us Oregonians, it seems like summer just arrived and here it is getting cold already. I will hold on to those warm summer evenings till i can't any more. This Inspiration board reminds me of one of those warm summer evenings...

Inspiration board #1: Vintage Circus

*** you can see the shower here! ***




I am currently planning a bridal shower for my sister who is getting married this year. I am having so much fun putting together my ideas! I am planning a vintage-circus theme for the shower.  It is going to be full of pop-corn, circus games and hopefully a cotton candy maker (we will see if i can find one).
