One of the leading trends emerging in 2010 is getting that eclectic vibe going!  The vintage feel is certainly in, but we are talking about mixing things up, creating interest to your tables and your designs.  Using different styles of vessels, say all in one color, but having them in different shapes, forms and textures to make a statement!  Here’s a few photos captured by  The Memory Journalists of an event we did this past year with this eclectic type feel we are talking about.

Held at Le Rivage Hotel in Sacramento, this event was all about FUN!  Working along with Aimee Wendell of 2 Chic Events and Design our vision was to dress up a casual afternoon mixer into a colorful and fun outdoor soiree! We used green and blue glass along with textured green votives to bring out an eclectic feel to the table decor.  Brightly colored flowers made these hues “pop” off the white drop ceiling.

Interesting vessels add a unique look, even though they aren’t being used to display florals.

Teal and Green Damask Plates tied in with our colors.  Get them at: Classic Party Rentals

Recycled wine bottles seemed to fit right in with the look and displayed a few floral blossoms.

If we had done plain clear glass for this event, it wouldn’t have been near as interesting, but the colors chosen, the variations within the glass, and the added “pop” of yellow florals simply said FUN!
