hello lions!

preston bailey encouraged his blog readers to work on an inspiring concept for a design- and this image from oh joy! has really stuck with me. i don’t think i’ll do them in order, but i want to create different event designs based on each of these elegant creatures.

so I wanted a tablecloth with polka dots that increase in density- haven’t found it yet.

if i find some fabric i might ask white table to create linens just for me. they do custom work- more on them at a later date!

here are my original thoughts when i was first struck with the image- it was like i couldn’t breathe. i love how the body pillar is silvery, almost crystal looking. i would play that up big time in a spacious venue!

some of it didn’t come through because it’s in pencil. some of it doesn’t make sense + some of it sucks. for instance, the density of the polka dots at the bottom of the linens would probably not make the strong visual impression that i want it to have because it will be covered most of the time by chairs and people’s bodies or feet.

the draped chair cover idea also didn’t look as cool in reality as it does in my head but i like this fluffy one from wildflower linen as an alternative:

what do you see when you look at that first butterfly? and what are you dreaming about or creating today?

love to all,

lindsey
