Table Setting

The Requirement.

1. Pick a client (made-up client is okay)

2. Choose  an Event and Location where the event will be held.
3. Arrange a Table Setting based on the client's profile, status, etc.


The Result.
"Our Love is like a Tree"  

Client: Newly-wed couples celebrating their 1st anniversary. 
The couples are high school sweethearts :)

Location: The couple have an old family home in Batangas, 
the setting was arranged under a tree, where the husband also proposed to his then girlfriend.

 Theme: Rustic Shabby chic. Casual yet formal.

 
 I was lucky enough to have my friend lend me her shabby chic plates and utensils. She graduated culinary, so she had some kind of a collection herself too :)

We added a white charger for contrast.

The Details..
Color Scheme: Yellow, Purple and Pink :)

 
(one of the pictures floating on the ceiling, together with colorful, paper pinwheels)
 since we're limited to the school-tables in our school, 
we covered it up with this natural wood, Oak sheets to create that rustic effect.
Then layered the table with natural sinamay? fabric (i forgot what's it called :)
instead of using cotton/other table cloth to allow a focal point at the center.

Most of the items we used here are from my room :)
It's quite fun to see them come in handy! 

Each plate has a hand written love letter placed on top of the table napkin.
 
 name card for wife.
name card for husband.

Then and Now, But not Yet. My Room

it was one of those days in design school when i got so stressed with all our projects, that i thought of 
>> redecorating my room...! (nothing major though... cos if i had my ceilings recessed or change my room entirely, it would just add to my already cluttered brain & bring more damage!) >.<




my flooring, cornice, basebaord, doors, and most furniture are made of Narra & other solid wood. 
My dad almost cried when he saw i repainted them with Duco White! ^.^

TRANSITION
the color scheme i picked was Turquoise & Red  
since my mom gave me a RED oversize tufted headboard, and i didn't want to mix it with anything monochromatic. so i started with that headboard and played with everything else (promise to post clearer pictures soon).

PAINTING
removed all the clutter.
newly painted. white cornice & pale turquoise walls.
