October Meet + Make

I know said this yesterday, but last week’s Meet + Make may be my favorite one to date! Pumpkin spice cookies, spiked apple cider and seriously amazing projects all made for a fun night.

I know said this yesterday, but last week’s Meet + Make may be my favorite one to date! Pumpkin spice cookies, spiked apple cider and seriously amazing projects all made for a fun night. Each attendee painted a doormat for their home using a modern fall paint palette of mustard, deep teal, cream and dark gray. There were 50 attendees and each mat was so unique. I just love how everyone put their own style into their design and made it their own.

Today I’m so excited to share the amazing photos captured by Ly Sué of LH Photography. This lady is a doll and rushed in to help do some last minute set up all while taking these gorgeous photos of Meet + Make! If you’re looking for a photographer to capture everything from your wedding, to your family, and other special events she’s your goto girl. You can follow her on Facebook to see more of her lovely work and be in the know about special offers like her upcoming Christmas mini sessions. It’s almost Christmas card time!

A big thanks goes to West Elm Orlando for hosting over 50 of us!

  1. Oh my goodness. Every single person did an AWESOME job! I’m curious, have you done a post on your behind the scenes of hosting/coordinating meet + make type events? There is nothing like this where I live, but it would be so fun to coordinate one!
