Balloons, colour...action!

Hey hey! 

Just a quick post to show you some pics of my week :-) Last weekend we had a lovely long weekend to Centerparcs - it was action packed with quad biking, segways & lots of walking! So much pretty scenery...



Once home from Centerparcs, I was lucky to have some work experience with a fun and creative event planning company. Mind Candy was the customer for the party, they're an entertainment company who have created an online gaming world  for children called "Moshi Monsters". The brand is fun and completely creative which is why  the decor for the party was totally fresh thinking and original...we spent the day applying a mix of pop coloured balloons to the walls, making sure it looked like an explosion, a big 3d wave working itself around the interior. Bright bunting flags & upside-down umbrellas hung from the ceiling and walls, all in keeping with the bright burst of colour! As well as the quirky use of objects, there was also some fun novelty interactions such as cotton candy, photobooths and ice cream cocktails. I left the event feeling totally inspired...and was dreaming about balloons, all night...




Tomorrow is a day at the stall with some new items to be added! Will keep you posted! Nighty nighty!

So we've just got back from another weekend by the sea, although unfortunately it was a cold one! Just absolutely love Brighton, feel so inspired when there - lots of pretty shop fronts & good design...just everywhere! Here's just a few of the snaps I took! We had a lovely little rummage through the lanes & already want to go back to explore some more...
