WORDS FOR THE WEEK

I just love this quote.  Thought it deserved to be painted and shared.

BLUSH & MUSTARD FLORAL BABY SHOWER

This isn't just any baby shower. This baby shower was for one of my best childhood friends (hosted with our other best, long time gfs).  This last photo above, that's us and sums us up perfectly. Always laughing about something, being silly, and cherishing our 19+ years of friendship. Friends turned sisters. It's unbelievably exciting to celebrate such sweet occasions for the people you love.  I was happy to lend my talents in making this day beautiful and memorable for Heather. That Sarah Tucker,   she made everything happen and opened up her beautiful home for the day.  I painted the flamingo crest and printed it on canvas to welcome all the guests to the party,  a just for fun 'photo booth' that I hand painted on Sarah's dining room floor one evening while planning last minute details.  We did a cheese table with calligraphy painted directly on it, some sweet treats and little sandwiches, infused water, pink champagne (of course). Sarah also secretly got baby photos that were placed about the house on white balloons.  We all laughed at the cute pictures and wondered who Ava will look like.  We are desperate to meet this little girl and it could be any time now with a due date of February 1st!

REAL WEDDINGS : HANNA & JACOB'S WOODLAND WEDDING | FEAT. ON STYLE ME PRETTY

OMG how beautiful is this wedding?! I don't always see wedding photos of the clients so when one gets featured / I get tagged on instagram it makes me so happy.  Hanna looked absolutely stunning on your wedding day.  I created the full wedding suite and menus using hand lettering with gouache.  I love how we switched it up on the menus to incorporate some of the fluffy wild flowers that were used in her bouquet.  Hop over to Style Me Pretty and drool over the rest of the photographs by Karen Hill Photography!

LATELY : IN THE STUDIO + WINTER PARK

What a busy, amazing month December is turning out to be.  I have been hustling to finish client orders, promptly ship holiday items, and get the studio organized for a new exciting year. 

A few snaps of life lately... 

 The beautiful rose garden in Winter Park 

 A few projects in progress

 Celebrated my birthday with a couple nights at Park Plaza, the cutest little hotel in Winter Park.  Complete with shopping with my mom.  She snuck my floral heart print and had it printed on my birthday cake. So cute. 

A few new greetings in progress. 

Hope you are enjoying the holiday season.
