{Behind the Scenes} In the life of a top notch helper...

Ever wonder who is behind Ten23 Designs? Here is a little look into the life of one of our top notch helpers... my son.

{As Seen On} People.com

I was honored to get the call from Atlanta's top rated wedding and event planner, ellyb events, to contribute on a Mindy Weiss project for the famous singer, Monica's baby shower. It was even more exciting when I saw it the next week on so many different websites including People.com

We made their monogram logo pillows for the lounge area, large custom vinyl decals of the logo monogram on the bar / buffet station and the 20 2' laser cut wooden horses placed around the outdoor party area that also coordinated with the logo monogram.

Congratulations to the happy couple and thank you so much to ellyb events for the opportunity and encouragement.

Workshop Conversion Project :: Part I

My husband and I have been slowly working on our workshop conversion project.  Parting ways with something things I have been holding on to was a little hard at first but once I saw the potential of the workspace and how much each it made organizing the wooden monogram and custom laser cut orders it was all worth it.

This morning we hung up peg boards and hooks to hang the wooden monograms and laser cuts.  Of course I had to paint them our signature lime green.  Organizing them but size, type and rush orders will really help the work flow.  I am exciting about what else is to come.  If you know of any other good workshop organizing ideas, feel free to share below.

{Introducing} Quartrefoil Pattern Vinyl Wall Decal

I have gotten enough custom requests for quartrefoil pattern vinyl wall decals that it's time to add it to my product line and post on my website.  I have seen uses such as wedding reception flower vase wraps, wall paper and lining cabinets... and I've loved them all. 

Last night, in honor of celebrating the new product to the collection, I decided to do my own quartrefoil vinyl decal project... which just happened to be on my DIY home decor project list for over a year now.

I've been wanting to do my kitchen back splash for quite some time now and last night, the opportunity of 20 minutes of free time presented itself.

BEFORE

AFTER

 

I have always said that a small decal can make such a BIG impact on a room and here is a prime example.  I just love it.  I even smiled when I walked into the kitchen this morning and saw the quartrefoil pattern vinyl wall decal greeting me.

To make it easy to install myself, I just used 3 pieces of the quartrefoil pattern vinyl wall decal and lined them up on the wall.  That way I wasn't working with one huge, harder to manage piece.

So what do you think?

{Press & Praise} Family Magazine - First Coast.

Earlier this year I collaborated with Jax Couture Events and Boutique to make some decal accents for a styled nautical theme baby shower photo shoot. My decals were added to the wine glasses and plates to give an extra personalized touch.

This month the photo shoot was featured in Family Magazine - First Coast.
