The Sole Repair Shop Open House

We were so graciously asked to do floral decor for The Sole Repair Shop's Open House 4.18.10. It's a swanky eco-chic venue in Capitol Hill. Quinn's Pub provides the food and you provide the rest! I was delighted to take part with Chesney Schmidt with All the Flutter and Amy Vallejo with Anticipate Weddings & Events among all the other wonderful vendors that showcased their work.

Here's a few shots from the showcase provided by Natalie G Photography.



We created these eco-chic fence board design pieces for the space. Since the space has many natural and re-usable elements in it's building design we decided to play off that when deciding on floral decor. We attached some glass pieces to the fenceboard and did some simple and modern floral designs with a pop color to stand out against the rustic board. It was a great entry piece!


You can't quite see the details in these photos because the event is in full swing, but we hung small vases from silver wire all along that back wall along with votive candles. The little vases contained bright blooms of Yellow Cymbidium Orchids. It was simple, but stunning against that re-used wood panel back drop.

Along the window space we did small trios of white ceramic vases containing Daffodils, Hala and September flower. A simple and bold design to accent the space.

We also did a great piece for the coffee table that unfortunately we didn't get a shot of. But we re-used food cans in a collection of 6 tied together with satin ribbon to add elegance. The cans contained simple bundles of Tulips, Daffodills and September Flower all in a bright yellow color palette.


This Bridal bouquete accented our vendor table. It was designed with Daffodils, Tulips, Asiatic Lilies, September Flowers, Button Mums, Roses and Lilac all in a fresh and sunny color palette with an accent of lime green. Refreshing!


Thanks again to all who were involved. We had a blast doing the decor and meeting lots of new vendors.
