In The Press With 'Wedding Chicks'

All Set recently received international attention thanks to one of the best bridal blogs in the business- Wedding Chicks. Founders Amy and Jocey have been showcasing bridal resources, sharing tips and tricks, and shedding light on all things weddings since 2008. Any person with an interest in design can appreciate the raw inspiration found on this incredible website. From DIY downloads to great images from real weddings, I would highly recommend adding this site to your online bookmarks.
On March 24, Wedding Chicks brought All Set into the designer lime light with a shout out on twitter, facebook, and a quick write up on their bridal blog. To be recognized by such a prestigious set of designers is an honor. Check out the posts below

Thanks again to Amy of Wedding Chicks for the recognition!

Daffodils For Disney

All Set was recently asked to be the floral sponsor for an industry event at The Walt Disney Family Museum. There was no set theme, but mellow yellow was the color choice for the evening. Three arrangements were All Set's donation.

The Big 3-0

This past weekend was the official celebration of my sister's birthday. It was a wonderful weekend filled with family, friends, food, and of course wine. As you'll recall from the invites, (Sealed With A... Fleur-de-lis?) my sister is a fan of any and all things purple. For this particular tablescape, she opted for gold as the accent color.

You know you've done well when the client cries in disbelief- happy client, happy designer. Happy Birthday Tiffany!

From The Heart

When it comes to holidays, my FAVORITE part is opening cards from my loved ones with thoughtful sentiments inside. Take this a step further- a HANDMADE card with thoughtful sentiments inside. Because I had some free time in early February (I say laughingly) I took the time to make my Valentines this year. I can't take credit for this idea, as it was my dear friend Elizabeth who suggested we turn our Saturday lunch date into a craft date instead.

Elizabeth and I cruised the aisles of Michael's carefully- inspecting each shelf to make sure we weren't missing out on something fabulous to help us create our holiday masterpieces.
We spent $26 on supplies and ended up with 16 handmade Valentines (not all pictured here).


Our favorite "couples card"

Our favorite "singles" card

Our favorite "little tike" card

Below I have provided a coupon to Michael's to make your Valentine's Day crafting that much more affordable.
Happy Valentine's Day to all my readers!
