WEDDING DESIGN: L.A. FABRIC WHOLESALE - I'D GO BACK JUST FOR THE HOT DOG

With just 8 weeks to the wedding in Dallas, I headed to LA to the garment/fabric district to hunt for ice pink fabric - not easy to find in the middle of winter!   Shawna needed draperies and we hoped to find the perfect fabric for them.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

WEDDING DESIGN: L.A. FABRIC WHOLESALE - I'D GO BACK JUST FOR THE HOT DOG

With just 8 weeks to the wedding in Dallas, I headed to LA to the garment/fabric district to hunt for ice pink fabric - not easy to find in ...

WEDDING DESIGN: Planning a Wedding!

I'm planning a wedding in Dallas. It is my first experience planning over the phone and via email - a little hard to convey ideas sometimes! So, I sent off little sketches of my vision for the wedding (reception) and crossed my fingers, waiting to hear back from them, hoping I got it right. <br /><br /><br /><br />I just heard back from the bride. She emailed me to say that she LOVED every little thing and that I had made her dreams come true. How adorable! I was amazed she could tell from my scribbles what I was hoping to create for her. <br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgEQ-B_hlUFBR8IzpnIsPyyF9F-BPv8-ZOG9s2SbI2tdMVXPR6zriG-O_xFKC39Q7PY4EyedIGfVN1WdOvtuXvkNt0ITasEfI2nPnnvoyd23X4ukYYHRXxWXbDYx8-QlVUII1fRIWMTHU/s1600-h/untitled.bmp"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382483985787769058" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgEQ-B_hlUFBR8IzpnIsPyyF9F-BPv8-ZOG9s2SbI2tdMVXPR6zriG-O_xFKC39Q7PY4EyedIGfVN1WdOvtuXvkNt0ITasEfI2nPnnvoyd23X4ukYYHRXxWXbDYx8-QlVUII1fRIWMTHU/s1600/untitled.bmp" /></a> </div><br /><br />The bride is a true princess. She is a beauty queen, a ballerina, homecoming queen and student body president of her high school to name a few of her accomplishments. So I created ideas fit for a princess and with her colors of ice pink, chocolate and ivory. Here are some of my scribbles and photos of the venue. I will keep you updated as we progress! <br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfhxrL_Am9lMYu5kwByEDl6wl3YUy5MK12BUVd9HvfnrVGmI8inoR-CTVY7tNQyd03d4IR1Gru0j1MPFkUpTJqsMxCpQnj4BIETYKt_qY-a3TB6Nb7oDQLdV2sPRXvMqECvo4aqk8prCM/s1600-h/DSCN2855.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="480" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382480812177700450" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfhxrL_Am9lMYu5kwByEDl6wl3YUy5MK12BUVd9HvfnrVGmI8inoR-CTVY7tNQyd03d4IR1Gru0j1MPFkUpTJqsMxCpQnj4BIETYKt_qY-a3TB6Nb7oDQLdV2sPRXvMqECvo4aqk8prCM/s640/DSCN2855.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7OkVNf_oph8DQEEo3JQiDQ5HljKrQxpmXTRO544Y86gfpz4MuEhNru_NANAJWE_K7ORoD2EXVOKnHjdqpe8_B2jkE3LCAoF5h3iIT436EdagtDY4S43k_KuBv4Pkj8npzW1kaKIgOgZ4/s1600-h/guest+table+sketches.bmp" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="258" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382483311862451746" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7OkVNf_oph8DQEEo3JQiDQ5HljKrQxpmXTRO544Y86gfpz4MuEhNru_NANAJWE_K7ORoD2EXVOKnHjdqpe8_B2jkE3LCAoF5h3iIT436EdagtDY4S43k_KuBv4Pkj8npzW1kaKIgOgZ4/s400/guest+table+sketches.bmp" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br />We will be using ivory linens as our base (the Bride's dress is ivory) and making runners with rhinestone encrusted tassels to top them.

I'm also incorporating the crystal/rhinestone theme here by tying vintage chandelier crystals to the branches as well. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2y5p6TAx2R6HGc8vAQitGQ9b_Qshnb7t9T5Xymyyu5r1Rbq6W9ohXSr0h_FxPkjU3GvLqh89ep1lcYYS_uqKPX4y20FN9rM_mgHvcu0O_cPYXDcUEmv7DHBMU63HvJNGE_pOBNTYdmPQ/s1600-h/popcorncones.bmp" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382483965466295106" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2y5p6TAx2R6HGc8vAQitGQ9b_Qshnb7t9T5Xymyyu5r1Rbq6W9ohXSr0h_FxPkjU3GvLqh89ep1lcYYS_uqKPX4y20FN9rM_mgHvcu0O_cPYXDcUEmv7DHBMU63HvJNGE_pOBNTYdmPQ/s320/popcorncones.bmp" style="height: 235px; width: 235px;" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br />We decided on a popcorn bar - (Kolorado Kernels) with a couple of different flavors. The popcorn will be served in these paper cones with a monogramed medallion on front.

I love to have something outside that announces the event within. We will add little twinkle lights there as well. Two sconces flank the entry door - I thought these leaf covered cones filled with flowers and hung by beautiful ribbon would be elegant there. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzCnBTgOoDPHDVz6z5R3AaAOngED6IWDfn0shxKbvTCEuuftcwu-bqxAhezLY-wZfTsH9Vnr9uBugCMbMM25c6eALCZiKNg1e4RKTbyKuxAY61Ei-Mcv6FXO0JZkFvL8KyJRXEeTiqdII/s1600-h/outside.bmp" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382483323873746578" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzCnBTgOoDPHDVz6z5R3AaAOngED6IWDfn0shxKbvTCEuuftcwu-bqxAhezLY-wZfTsH9Vnr9uBugCMbMM25c6eALCZiKNg1e4RKTbyKuxAY61Ei-Mcv6FXO0JZkFvL8KyJRXEeTiqdII/s1600/outside.bmp" /></a></div><br /><br /> More later....

A scalloped bottom added a feminine touch and the puffy posies - a fun little project I did myself - added a touch of whimsy and youth. (They are removable for when she is a little older down the road). </div><div style="text-align: center;">The room had a large window in an alcove that was a natural spot to create a window seat.

Next to the curtain is a pompom pouf - one of Haileys favorite things in her room. Hot pink pompoms in varying sizes were glued to the lid of this soft pink ottoman, creating a very girlish and very soft seat. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxpZkK2MxoJ0lkOcLSjXGyi3KGiB1avqRRSX_TjI0f2_ZoletHYPETlD61dzoynpYzJiMUkEBITWwGoJ9ALt-aXltvG332TZUX8ZJ85eyYfTL0KPQTkRCf7pGEDjZ8RO_gBNVyk6NA794/s1600-h/Davis+-+Haileys+room+-+window+seat.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="424" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338197335749085762" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxpZkK2MxoJ0lkOcLSjXGyi3KGiB1avqRRSX_TjI0f2_ZoletHYPETlD61dzoynpYzJiMUkEBITWwGoJ9ALt-aXltvG332TZUX8ZJ85eyYfTL0KPQTkRCf7pGEDjZ8RO_gBNVyk6NA794/s640/Davis+-+Haileys+room+-+window+seat.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a> Here is the finished window seat.

Adjacent to the room, a private bathroom gets the same valance treatment and a shower curtain in the same fabrics as the bedroom. Above the doorway is a series of photos we had taken of Hailey at Blue Moon studio in Laguna Niguel. The studio provided wings, dress and floral wreath for her head, transforming her into a fairy. The photos were magical! Not only does she have a room fit for a fairy princess, she IS the fairy princess. Each time she looks at these photographs she will see how beautiful she really is. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAi2bhrKEKcPXXHqudn7r3Ga5yjZ-4SH6tliETKP9RY9iCon9ouJ3UZhrddMFTVHBvEyWUHVV2fM1J5eEk4xlE1kVrFDeDTKRWgoMrqv0Bpc2FUQpoRgua-Aedgtzxbv8IBnlCVMLh0o4/s1600-h/fairydoll.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="417" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338197326196798946" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAi2bhrKEKcPXXHqudn7r3Ga5yjZ-4SH6tliETKP9RY9iCon9ouJ3UZhrddMFTVHBvEyWUHVV2fM1J5eEk4xlE1kVrFDeDTKRWgoMrqv0Bpc2FUQpoRgua-Aedgtzxbv8IBnlCVMLh0o4/s640/fairydoll.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a> Here is a close-up detail of the window seat pillows and a fairy doll I created from a pattern.

We removed the twin size bed from the room and brought in a queen sized mattress and box spring, elevated with risers to allow for possible storage underneath. We turned the bed sideways because of space concerns and so that the bed didn't completely block the beautiful new window seat. I created and upholstered the headboard, in deep purple corduroy. The darker color adds a little drama, a little sophistication and a little depth to the room. We added a plush chenile shaggy area rug in the same color at the foot of the bed. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdHWvq5K8WqErAjCXpmeIutXCaRBItj8smqQRKEOmSXPPKiBHNhXKxpZnba59ETdTTLM0wRqxt7TH-L9NzY1xw9HLKrvsEBJyTTfNngNz1BY4K0eDBPRFymmONmOSfIMU9mO6o0aa8Brk/s1600-h/cornice+detail.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="457" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338196144367187362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdHWvq5K8WqErAjCXpmeIutXCaRBItj8smqQRKEOmSXPPKiBHNhXKxpZnba59ETdTTLM0wRqxt7TH-L9NzY1xw9HLKrvsEBJyTTfNngNz1BY4K0eDBPRFymmONmOSfIMU9mO6o0aa8Brk/s640/cornice+detail.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a>The crowning touch of the room is the bed cornice and draperies. My carpenter created the cornice from my drawings and specifications. Painted white and trimmed with decorative molding, it holds the beautiful draperies and valance that frames the bed.
