Lucky in Love 💛

Its always an honor to be apart of any event or someone's special day, but a wedding has an unique place in my heart. A couple's biggest day, the celebration, all the preparation and money that goes into making sure that it's their version of perfect and it goes on without a hitch. That is where I come in for this Lucky in Love couple. When Cyndi came to me about decorating I was all in before she could finish asking me to be their wedding decorator. This was the first wedding that I had more than just tablescapes to execute. I was in charge of crafting a picture frame photo prop, sweetheart table initials, flower girl basket. a bouquet with bling and boutonniere with style to match both Brides' personality 😉. The color scheme of gray, shades of yellow and a touch of sparkle were perfect for this 7-7-17 summer wedding. Cue the pictures: Yellow, silver/gray, and white flowers with faux florals and a bling base and broaches for the bouquet. KD lo

Tutu Cute Baby Shower

It was all about the tulle and sparkle details for this pink and gold Tutu Cute/Princess Ballerina Themed Baby Shower: I love working with tulle. It is a very simple material that can be manipulated easily into anything.  Gold sparkly princess crown made from cardboard and a Cricut .  Me and the Mom-to-be The dessert table (not designed by me) was beautiful, it was hard not sneaking a piece 😀

Beach Theme Wedding Reception

The lovely Mr. & Mrs. Morgan went the destination wedding route and recited their vows on a beautiful sandy beach in Mexico. Then decided to bring the beach (theme) back to the great state of Texas to celebrate with family and friends.  For this beach inspired reception we went with teal, seashells, pearls, candles, burlap and sand decor with shimmery accents.  One of the highlights of the decor was this fabulous gold sequin backdrop with a teal curtain that everyone struck a pose in front of. The beach sand trays, vellum and sequins lampshades, fishing net wrapped mason jars, and hand painted and glittered shells decor were all custom made (by The CGD studio of course). Material list: Sequins Mesh Fabric - Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store Rosebud Embroidered Mesh Fabric- Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store Teal and Gold Nylon Tulle Fabric- Alforal

Prince Theme Baby Shower

The possibilities are endless with cardboard, tape and paper 😉  (The almost finished product) 

Gender Reveal BaByQ theme

The mother-to-be's dad is a barber and her mother is a wonderful hairstylist (I know from first hand experience).  So the theme to the reveal party: Barber shop or Beauty shop? Clippers or Combs?  My friend/hairstylist Kisha is always coming up with out-of-the-world (way beyond the box) themes for parties so I had to come through with her vision. You don't wanna even know what her first theme was gonna be 😣. 

Hollywood Sweet 16!

I love any party theme but the Hollywood theme gets a little more love because you can be as glamorous as you want.  I was tasked with making the rep carpet stanchions and "velvet" ropes and a mini step repeat background for a Sweet 16.                        For the stanchions : concrete, small pie pans for the molds, PCV pipe, caps and sleeves (they might not be called that but you get the point), glitter tape, glitter sealer (it is a must trust me), 7/8" gold cup hooks and a drill to make the holes. For the "velvet" ropes : installation tubes, fleece fabric, red ribbon, and plenty of hot glue 😉                                                                                                                                                 

Necklace holder

Don't stash your wearable art in a drawer or in a armoire where it can't be seen, display it. If your like my friend that I made this for and have tons of necklaces this would be perfect for you. It's wall decor that's functional because it holds your beautiful jewelry, decorates your wall and is a shelf as well.
