T.G.I.I.F.- KENSICO SOAP BAR BRANDING

Over the summer, I had a lot of fun working with the ladies of Kensico Soap Bar (http://www.kensicosoapbar.com/#!home/mainPage.) They came to me in need of the design of their logo and label packaging for the store.  It all started with the below color inspiration and their concept of the store, which was creating a fun atmosphere for both kids and adults.  The final product ended up being a great success because it married both the color palette and the over all shopping experience they were trying to create.

T.G.I.I.F.- FROM INSPIRATION TO DESIGN

If I could do our wedding all over again, this couple's venue, The Metropolitan Building, would be my ideal place to have our reception.  The space would completely inspire the style of the wedding, and every little detail added to the venue would only optimize the overall beauty of the interior.  With this being said, the design of these invites came effortlessly while opting for a simplicity in design with a little grace and glamour.

TODDLER TUESDAY- DIY HEADBOARD

My toddler is about to upgrade to the big girl bed, and unfortunately I am not liking the original bed we purchased before she was born.  We have to keep the bed frame, but I am looking for a DIY project that will spice up the decor in her bedroom.  I came across these while searching the internet.

T.G.I.F.F.- FROM INSPIRATION TO DESIGN

I am completely obsessed with hand-drawn flowers on stationery.  And these invites were a perfect mix of structure and hand-drawn.  I am loving the couple's fresh color palette and all the details we included in the invitation suite.  Such a fun and sweet bride, and looking forward to working with her more!

T.G.I.I.F.- FROM INSPIRATION TO DESIGN

I am completely digging the new trend of foil stamping, and was thrilled when this couple was willing to embrace the trend.  I hope these gold metallic invitations wow their guests as much as I was wowed when I did the press check.
