Black and White....

...is our official event theme. We're going to transform Nara by bringing the "outdoors in" with wheatgrass accents, budding branches and white flowers. You're going to see black and white graphic elements and we're working on handmade details to keep the event modern and sophisticated but casual. Don't forget, it's still a picnic!

Over the next few weeks, we're going to be sharing ideas that inspire us and little projects we're working on. We're trying to keep our decor budget as small as possible, so reuse, recycle and reinvent is the name of the game. If you have any ideas you'd like to share or see anything you want to make with us, drop us a line. We're happy to have the help.

Rebecca Thao is working like mad recyling bottles

of all sizes and covering them with newsprint.

-------------------------------------------

Instead of printing signs, all these frames will be painted

a glossy white and backed with wood that will be

covered in chalkboard paint, same with the clipboards.

Cost effective AND charming, right?

-------------------------------------------

Upstairs, we are going to string fun food and wine

quotes in large cut-out letters across the entire room.

All by hand! Calling all volunteers. :)
