love it or hate it . upside down plants

mudpuppy etsy love it or hate it . upside down plants

It’s obviously a big trend right now. I’ve posted about suspended candles, string gardens and now upside down plants. It seems that placing things on tables or the floor are so 2009. I’d love to know from you event planners whether this trend is a love it or a hate it.

Well, if you happened to love it, you can find these gems at the mudpuppy shop on Etsy.

Each item is hand crafted so she can customize every single detail to work with your colour scheme.

string a floral design original . string gardens

String Gardens has re-imagined floral design by suspending flowers instead of planting them. But it doesn’t stop at there – they also hang trees and shrubs as well. I think this could be a very interesting way to use vertical space and, of course, create the unexpected from expected event decor.

an event . in orvieto

When my husband and I celebrated our honeymoon, we opted for a month in Europe. One of the towns we visited along the way was a beautiful place called Orvieto. Known to Italians as the “green heart of Italy”, it is lesser known to tourists and is centrally located between Rome and Florence. It’s location, beauty and rich Etruscan history made it  a must on our list of places to see.

I recently came across some stunning pictures of a wedding that Artfool (now named Matthew Robbins designs) designed and executed in Orvieto. Having been to this beautiful place, I think they did a wonderful job of capturing the essence of this magical Italian town.

plant . a . cup

Perhaps inspired by Alice in Wonderland’s garden?…
Designer Gitta Gschwendtner’s Plant a Cup is a planter in the shape of a giant cup and saucer (18.5″ x 10.5″). This would definitely be a conversation starter.
