Inspiration for One Fine Day

Received a lovely email from a photographer today, asking to collaborate some time. Unfortunately time and space won't allow it, but I am super excited to find some great images to continue my inspiration for my little corner at the wedding fair One Fine Day.

Cutie pie mini succulents

Next Saturday my floral buddy Aleksandra and I are helping a great couple with the styling of their wedding over at the Royal Motor Yacht Club Point Piper (I'll be wearing my fancy pants to this one!!)

I really can't wait for this wedding, as Kat and Rhys have had some really unique and different ideas. One of which is a distinct lack of flowers. Instead, Aleks will be using a variety of different specimens. One of which is the humble succulent.

These little troupers are so resilient, even the un - greenest of green thumbs can't kill them (ie, me).

Jessica Roy over at Roy Joy has planted her baby succulents in the most creative way, perfect set up for a table centrepiece!!

Michelle and Wilde.

What a super cute couple.

Although they live in Sydney, they are both originally from Melbourne, so they organised a private residence in the beautiful Daylesford to play host to their wedding.

We were invited along to set up and style the day for them.

This is one of my favorites (among many!!)

Oscar and Ruby in Cosmo bride!!

We are so excited and honoured to be featured in the latest issue of Cosmo Bride that is on the shelves as we speak.

This was a shoot we worked on with a great team, down at Roseville Bridge, Sydney.

The shoot that almost didn't happen as it rained, and rained and rained. The day before, the night before and the day of. 

Our gorgeous bride Ang, had to have hair and make up done, in the rain. 

Our gorgeous table was set up, and then quickly covered up with a tarp due to, more rain.

Poor Mandy with her gorgeous Vera Wang dress was justifiably anxious about the muddy ground.

And our fab crew of models and helpers spent a lot of time standing around waiting for each rain cloud to pass before we could shoot again.

A huge thankyou to all that were involved on the day.

How to sew a paper valentine

Here is a little tutorial on how to sew a cute valentine for your loved one (s)

I have been making these as placecards and it occurred to me that they would make a pretty cute and quick valentine.

Step one: Trace your shape onto some thick card stock

Step two: use a pin to make holes in your design.

* matching the colour of your pin to your embroidery thread is not necessary

It helps to use a piece of foam behind your card stock. 

Prevents stabbing yourself or making bends in the card.

Step three: Thread your needle with some embroidery thread

Step four: Sew your design

Step five: Repeat!!

Have fun and happy valentines lovers!!

P.s excuse the white paint on my perfectly shellaced nails. 

Got a few projects on the go.......
