Etc... Party with Yeah Rentals!

If  I lived in Los Angeles I would most likely find random excuses to throw big, fancy parties just to rent from Yeah Rentals. Sort of ridiculous, but look. Yeah Rentals loans out rad chairs & tables and loads of other cool things.

It's a brilliant idea, right? I'm totally sold, party's on. I love their images, too.

Yeah! 

 

Inspiration: mt expo 2011

Oh HOT! I came across this fantastic post on the mt Expo on Hello Sandwhich - can you even imagine how fun that would have been to attend?!

By the looks of it, everything was covered from to head to toe in mt at the expo - even the floor?! I would have smiled the whole time & totally geek'd out.

What's your favorite use for decorative masking tape? I try to use my skinny hot pink whenever possible....

inspiration: the thanksgiving table _thanksgiving ’11

Thanksgiving is near! If you are hosting, do not delay - be inspired & let this be the best Thanksgiving celebration ever.

I am a tactile person and in order to gain inspiration for upcoming celebrations, I gather various supplies, colors & objects (usually from around the house & from my crafty 'stash) that visualize the look I have in mind. The top image illustrates such gathering. Florescent oranges, Kraft paper, natural wood, black & gold. Add in a date/number stamp, Scrabble (or Bananagram) letter tiles and natural linen... and I am set!

This is my Thanksgiving theme & idea springboard:
1. Colors: Bright orange & gold details, black accents
2. Natural and/or white tableware with natural linen-y cloths
3. Playful & papery party favors (yes, for Thanksgiving!)
4. An interactive & family friendly centerpiece

Once I have gathered my ideas it's time to make a project list & get to work!

Be on the lookout! Later this week I will post a mini-book tutorial and ideas for what to use this party favor for (mini-book shown above)! I will also share my idea for a really fun table centerpiece.

In need of dishware inspiration? The modular & stackable dishware collection by Adonde has me in love!
