Cocktails and Crafting (DIY)



Materials:
vintage plates
contact paper
stencil
exacto knife
spray paint




Sketch out your fun design and stencil it onto the contact paper. 
Once you are satisfied, cut out desired shape. 
Arrange new stencil on plate and once you find your position, 
peel off the backing and stick it on. 
If you aren't really sure about the placement, 
peel it back up and re-stick!



In a well ventilated area, slowly and evenly spray paint front of plate.
You may have to do several coats to cover the plate design.





One pint lemon sorbet
One bottle Prosecco

Scoop a generous amount of lemon sorbet into each 
glass and top with chilled Prosecco. 





Follow drying instruction on the spray paint can and once your plate is officially 
dry, take an exacto knife and carefully outline the stencil. No need to press hard and 
damage the plate, just lightly enough to scratch the spray paint surface.
Once outlined, slowly and steadily peel up the contact paper stencil.
If you get a resistance, wait for the paint to dry a little longer and outline 
again with exacto knife. Then....Voila!

To seal off the plate, spray with a clear gloss. However, this step is not necessary.


Display new plate beautifully! It is not to be used for eating!

Fabrika (Savannah Fashion Week)










The Designers








Savannah Fashion Week is here! Fabrika Fine Fabrics is one of the independent retailers that is walking this year for this fashion filled event. They brought out local designers to participate, and show off their custom creations. We had such a fun filled morning shooting some of the designers and their work. Unfortunately, not everyone was able to make it during the scheduled time. Designers not photographed are Hope Hellberg, Kelsie Blanchard, Erin Kordsmeier, April Johnston, and Maria Pena.

To purchase last minute tickets to the fashion show on May 17th at 7:30 stop by the Lucas Theatre or purchase them here. Sales from the show benefit Safe Shelter, a local organization that provides temporary emergency shelter for victims of domestic violence.
