So the month of October has been crazy. I have some new products up in the shop (more still to come), took on a few little custom projects, and got myself back into some graphic work as well, but was definitely challenged by a friend of mine to get a portfolio going. I knew I always needed to start one to begin showcasing what I can do for a more complete event. I've done posters, signage, invitations, table items and a lot of other things for a few events this year, but not a complete design. I've come up with themes, and created a few things for clients with them, but was still missing a whole array of decorations I can make for so many other events. So he asked me, "When are you planning on doing a shoot?" I gave him a date close to the end of October. He looked at me and asked me again "When are you planning on doing a shoot?" I knew exactly what he meant, so I gave him a date a week earlier than the previous one. He looked at me again and said "When are you planning on doing a shoot?" My answer this time "When am I planning on doing this shoot?" He was like "Next weekend"...

Next weekend? Was he crazy? does he actually know how much time it takes to source things, design from scratch and actually make stuff? Granted I had already started and at least had a theme and idea in mind as to what I wanted to do, but still... I barely had anything together. My nights, lunch breaks and any spare moment was spent designing, gluing, cutting, sticking pasting everything I possibly could and I really didn't think I could do it, but...


Tah Dah! It worked. I did it. I got 2 pretty nice table designs done and executed and I think they turned our pretty good (I was also even able to bake some cookies for the snacks too!) So I wanted to give everyone a little sneak peak with some of the pictures I got back from the photographer and I will be letting you all know when the gallery will be open to see the rest.

So excited to see everything coming together :)
