Last Thursday I hosted my second Meet + Make of the year at West Elm Orlando. As always, it was just so much fun and I really can’t wait to host the next one. It so fun to facilitate creativity and community and Meet + Make does just that—it’s an evening of bringing people together and creating. Oh and there’s sweets, sips, and swag bags too.
If you’re wondering when the next Meet + Make is (hint: late summer or early fall) be sure to sign-up for my mailing list so you know when tickets are going to go on sale.
Until then, here’s a little peek into the evening and at what we were making.
We used these cute little yellow gift tags from Sweet Estelle with mini painted clothespins as name tags. This is now my favorite way to make name tags because it doesn’t leave a hole in your shirt or dress.
Each attendee learned how to make a paper cut collage on a wood panel. Doesn’t this mod flower design look at home on this sideboard?
Cupcakes in jars are now one of my favorite party foods. The Ball jars looked so cute with the blue lids and kraft paper labels on them (get more details about how they were made here).
A BIG thanks to Jordan Emmitt Photography for capturing the event and for these great photos. Be sure to like her page on Facebook and follow her gorgeous Instagram feed so you don’t miss a beat. This lady has fabulous style and a great eye!
Thanks so much Marcela, Angela and the West Elm Orlando team for hosting over 50 of us!
