My floral class experience!!
I went to floral arrangements class yesterday @ Whole foods and it was so much fun! The people there are so friendly and the instructor as well, very helpful. The class was on arranging flowers with veggies and fruits. The choices of flowers were snap dragons" the white one," red roses, and yellow daffodil. The veggies and fruits were broccoli, lemon, apples, strawberry, grapes red and green, cauliflowers as far as I can remember. We were all given a basket, apron and equipments. The instructor went with us step by step telling us about the techniques to assemble fruits and veggies the right way and different tips. Everyone used all the flowers they were given but I wanted to have a steady color scheme so I used daffodils, snap dragons, lemons, grapes, broccoli and some green plants to fill in gaps. I'm so proud of what I did, I think it's a great 1st bouquet!

Gender party "new idea!"
This is one neat idea "gender reveal party". No one in the whole party knows the gender of the unborn baby not even the parents! The gender note was given by the Dr. in a sealed envelope and then handed to the party organizer which helped design the party. Everyone had to vote for their expectations and wear a boy/ girls badge to represent what they thought. At the end the big white box was opened and if it was a pink balloon then it's a girl and if blue then boy. The balloon turned out to be pink. Another aspect I liked was that in the dessert table the labeling was described upon taste rather than the food's name, which is a new idea.

Street art!
Signs, ads on the streets give the place an artistic look. There are really good ads like the smoking one below and the pets food bowl which is a sticker of the a bowl of pedigree food that attracts pets on the streets! The newspaper looks very modern and interesting.

Packaging does wonders
Looking at how products are packaged is quite interesting. I would sometimes buy products just because they are nicely packaged. The pencil and the spaghetti packagings are amazing!
This is the pencil packaging !
Spaghetti tower nice

Office between trees!
This is the kind of atmosphere I would like to work it! Very modern, between trees surrounded by nice wood. This office is located in Paris and the idea of creating this atmosphere is to boost the employees productivity by creating a green setting.

My mexican Fiesta inspirational board!
The weather totally inspired me to create this Mexican fiesta inspirational board! It's spring/summer and this theme would be amazing to an upcoming party! Have colorful table sets, pinatas and lots of yummy food. Centerpieces could be colorful carnations, candles, or a mexican hat. If it's outdoors u can have pinatas dangling from trees . On the tables have as many dips as u can get, gather them around in the center with tortillas on the side "as a started". Another idea is to have a mexican platter filled with yummy food like nachos, salsas and fajitas. A really cool idea is to have a taco and burrito station where everyone can create their own taco/ burrito. Dress up in mexican costumes if u would really like to create a fully mexican atmosphere.
