seeing red.

Our client wanted to use Valentine’s Day as a cover for a party heralding her husband’s new job. It just so happened that it coincided with Chinese New Year, so why not have a trifecta of parties and combine all 3. Having a Good Fortune Party on Valentine’s Day was the perfect way to do just that.

Where to start? The color red, of course. Spray painting everything high-gloss red was in fact a simple, inexpensive way to turn the smallest detail into something bold. A tube of miniature play horses from Joanne Fabrics was transformed into a red army of nobility. 


Inexpensive picture frames from Ikea were painted red and then sponged with metallic gold spray paint for a chinese “gold leaf” effect (pre gold-leaf photo).  Bamboo steamer baskets were painted high gloss red and filled with tight clusters of red flowers. Outdoor candle lanterns were painted red to enhance a chinese-flair.

Simple  glass vases from the Dollar Store were wrapped with rubber bands and spray painted red, giving them a bamboo-look. Filled with tulips, these vases were a luscious addition to the decor. 

Remember: A little red paint can have a really dramatic effect. Spray on. 

Love,
 Amy

ps: There's always a reason to celebrate.
