Cake Pops

As wedding & baby season rolls around, I'm starting to see that tissue paper & leftover fabric can definitely come in handy. Also, here's a glimpse of these fun little cake pops I experimented with from Bakerella.

Wallcovering & Blue Dye

It's that time of the year again! Here's a glimpse of Studio V's creation for the 2010 IIDA Couture Fashion Show. The model is one our own designers and through long hours of hot glue gun burns and blue fingernails...this is what we came up with~! Enjoy!~

Reduce . Reuse . Recycle

This past week I had the opportunity to attend Greenbuild 09. I ran into these few items while perusing all of the different vendors. I have to admit that chairs seem to draw attention to my eyes. Here are just a few that I saw while wandering around the convention center.

Hon

Herman Miller

AutoCad Presentation Center (I really liked these chairs and thought it was clever how they used these recyclable materials to make a seating area for their teaching sessions).

Wallpaper Alternative

I came across this while going through our new products in our library and thought this is a really terrific way to fill in large empty wall. This is actually a clip from the gallery of Modular Arts. I really loved their interactive gallery because as you can see, you can pick from the different textures and see a real life application of the product. Contract Magazine also had a full page ad in their October Issue.

Another example is of MDC's Dimension Walls. Same concept but also provides a different variety of textures.

Conserving and Preserving Design

During my trip to China, I had the privilege of visiting a small shop a touristy minority park. We met a local artist there by the name of Ms. Sha Sha who has teamed up with local minority artisans who create their products to raise money to support their villages.

One Village One Product
