Major Mass Makeover

Decorating a wedding,  mostly are a big makeover. But this wedding in the coastal area of Semarang- Central Java, took more than that. Located in a half-done building, we have to work covered in dust, hot and moist during the day, cold and windy by the night, to make it look decent for a wedding.


 Even some walls are yet to be covered. Some ceiling to be installed. And we're running out of time.


 These are our heroes... without them, none  of this would ever happen...



  And this is when everything is ready.. just in time. Phew!...

Lovely Lace

Delicate and fragile, the lacy patterns reigned this wedding, adorned and added more romance to it.








Girly Romantic

Another small wedding I happen to be part of in the making. A mix of many styles in a beautiful way, misty shabby swatch, sweet french meets modern style.

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

I've been doing my part  decorating some biggest malls in Jakarta, the most elaborate parties in town in the best hotels and other venues. But decorating small places is still my most favourite. Like making christmas decoration for this small concept store - The Living Shoppe - in Magelang-Central Java. I have to do everything on my own.. cutting, arranging and installing all by myself. Creating things, just the way I like it :-)



Making garlands from fabric scraps, cloth hanger and one velvet poinsettia. All I have to do is to knot the scraps on the cloth hanger, tuck the poinsettia on top, and voilà!




Another one is this flying branches. I spray-painted the branches in white, added dried baby's breath-  a left over from previous wedding decor, some big bows and few christmas ornaments. a light country-ish christmas, I might say :-) Hope y'all like it.
Oh, and Merry Christmas to you, and you, and you!

An Ode To Cymbidium

I love this orchid because of its giant shape, and it's almost sculptural it can stand on its own. Too bad that Indonesia can't grow this orchid due to it's climate difference, and I just got the news that we are no longer allowed to import any kind of orchids. So sad. If only we could grow ourself enough orchids - in terms of variety and volume - i'd be more than happy not using imported flowers. But we can't produce it ourself, so it's a bit too arrogant for making such rule, in my opinion. Anyway, there's nothing I can do, and to this beautiful orchid, I bid thee farewell.
