Bianca Iofiel: Strawberry Party

My cousin asked for my help in organizing her daughter's baptismal. She wants to have a candy buffet like what I did on Soleil's bday. I immediately said yes! I'm so giddy when someone asks for my help in organizing something. Theme: Strawberry.

I started working on graphic designs. Invitations, pennants, labels, tarp, etc. I wanted to make it simple yet classy. I'm not sure if I incorporated it, watcha think?!

Invitation

Souvenirs

Pennants

Paper Pompoms

Candy Buffet: All things strawberry! Pinks, Reds and Greens.

 Here's the little cutie patooties outfit.

As usual, the candy buffet was a hit! Even the oldies can't resist it. Teehee!!!

Face Painting Dilemma

I accepted my very first paid face painting job yesterday. Honestly, I wanted to chicken out the day before the event. I was too worried that I won't be able to create nice drawings on kids' faces, it's what's been running through my mind since I woke up, I feel so anxious that I find it so hard to dress up and prepare.

It was my friend JP, (owner of Bliss Events Management) who called me and asked if I can do Face Painting for a Christmas Party. I don't know why I said yes. 1) I have no idea how to face paint 2) I have no supplies. But something inside me wants to accept it so I did. I'm a curious person, I want to try everything. I just didn't anticipate the preparation I need to do to make it happen. Too late I can't back out.

My volunteer model --Soleil.

I practiced on Elaine's face before I actually do it on the guests

I wasn't aware that I will be painting on adult's faces --not kids, which made me more fussy. I'm just glad they liked what I drew on their faces and no one got furious. What a relief!!

Guess what?? I have another face painting job on the 17th. Yay!!
