Modern Hawaiian Wedding Invitations

There's something so special about an invitation that is designed and presented in a way other than a simple 5x7 card in a white envelope. Lauren, from Hawaii (my favorite place in the world), was looking for a non traditional invitation that included the colors cream, wine, and black. She was inspired by my very own Save the Date Booklet and wanted to use that concept for her wedding invitation. What I loved most about this was not only the wonderful choice of colors, but the use of the bold typefaces. The invitation included a hand bound 4 page booklet, wedding invitation, reception menu, a custom map, response card, magnet, and custom envelope liners. Congratulations Lauren and Roel!

My first Craft Fair

On Saturday, I attended my very first craft fair! I have to say I never thought I would actually do one of these, but I figured why not make a little money and get my business name out there? It was a fairly small show but I definitely had fun. The unexpected surprise of my Water Street neighbors having a table next to me made my day even better. On December 3rd I will be taking part in another show, but this time a much bigger one. For this show, I will be making a few minor adjustments to the greeting cards. Instead of selling them individually, I will be selling them in bundles. You have to catch peoples eyes very quickly at these shows. By making the packaging extra adori-ble, I think will help. The craft fair on December 3rd will be held at Warren County Technical School, 1500 Route 57, Washington NJ
