Paint and Sip

 

This event is very fun. It can be executed in your home, office and even outdoors. This is a great activity among friends, family, or colleges. This can be a great team building activity. 

I have a background in painting. As a student from the Art Institute of Seattle; I learned many design techniques. This event is customizable to the clients needs. I can create any basic image to become every individuals work of art. We can paint anything in any style. I love to work with my clients in the designing stage of the desired image for the event. I like to make it custom to each individual.

 I like to foster individuality in my instruction. I want everyone to achieve creating something they can be proud of. I offer many different techniques and tools for the individuals to learn new and innovative ways to be creative. I make suggestions to get everyone comfortable painting outside the lines. I offer stenciled canvas, and blank canvas to my clients. For the blank I teach some tracing techniques. I also encourage individuals to freehand their designs. 

  

This helps with instructing multiple skill levels. I can work with children or adults or children and adults at the same event. 

For this event the theme was "Cheers to 60 Years" The client wanted wine glasses toasting. With the 60 somewhere in the design maybe with the words. I came up with a design the client loved and we set a date. 
        

     

I love how children paint with no restraints. Their art is free and colorful. 

  

   

  

Here are the finished works.

Bows or Burnouts: Baby Shower Reveal

It has been a busy few years... But this client has inspired me to get my events out. This shower I was hired to bring her vision together, with some images I came up with a color story for her, Powder Blue, Powder Pink and Gold. The spin on it all was the burnouts. Her husband is a legit BAYarea roadster and car enthusiast ;)

Concept: Bows or Burnouts

This was a baby shower/ gender reveal. The concept was to bring together the softness of a little girl and the rowdiness of a boy. Burnouts and Bows inspired wheels and bows throughout the theme. I was hired to come up with a custom photo booth, cupcakes, cakepops, dessert table, decorations, balloon installation, some shower activities for kids and adults. 

Details: The colors were a play of both pink and blue and all the neutral pastel tones in between. The small details were babies, pink bows, cars and wheels. 

Dessert Table: The color story followed through the table. I used pink champagne sequins to off set  and bring everything together. The desserts were so cute. Bows and cars accessorized. 

  
PhotoBooth with Balloon Arc: The lightng reflected the blue hues blended with the warm soft pink. The props were baby supplies, bottles, pacifiers, bibs, baby powder, giant bear and blocks, I used a rug and vintage chair to pull it all together.
    

Cupcakes and Cakesicles: The colors were the same throughout the event, When making these cakes I used pink white and blue, the cakes were enhanced with Chocolate donut wheels and white chocolate bows, The cakesicles were embellished similar bearing bows and mini chocolate cereal wheels. 

    

 Labels for PopBottles: The client wanted some cute giveaways so I created the labels for the pink and blue Barefoot wines.

  
Baby Name Suggestions Box: I created the Label and instructions for the name suggestion box. The boys suggestion cards were wheels and the girls were on bows.
       

Fun extras: Some kids activities included baby bottle squirt guns and painting the matchbox cars team blue or pink.
  

This Party was a blast!
