On a Hill in Burkill Hall

We have a soft spot for Burkill Hall. A lovely venue, beautiful, quiet, private and it holds a certain charm. Definitely one of our top favourite venues. 

In February, we were lucky to be involved in planning Pam and Des's wedding! The theme was vintage garden...something old-school, fun but yet rustic and natural. Here's what the wedding looked like...

What we loved - 
a) home-made jams and lemon curd from Milk Bar
b) a polar-booth for the guests
c) hand-made "quilt" backdrops and chalk boards for table numbers
d) delicious wedding cake from Jacqui Co - believe it or not, frosting was done on-site!
e) some impromptu performances by friends and family

Special thanks to the usual suspects!
1) Aloysius (actual day photography) and Eng Hong (who manned the polar booth) from 39 East
2) Love Yu for her dresses - Cheong sum and wedding dress
3) Marmalade for their glorious food!
4) CCLEE for their lovely flowers
5) Wonderland for the furniture (we love your chairs!)
6) Joanna Koh for hair and make up

How to DIY Fabric Flowers

We recently posted up some pictures of the fabric flowers project and have had a number of people asking how to make them. 
So, here are some easy peasy steps:


1) You will need a pair of scissors, needles, thread and assorted ribbons. For this exercise, we used a 2 inch thick ribbon.



b) Cut the ribbon into 9-10 inches long strips. Obviously, if you are using thinner ribbons like a half inch , you will need cut the ribbons shorter to 4 inch strips.



c) Thread the needle and tie a dead knot at the end. Start to run the thread through the edge of the ribbon strip.



d) As you move the needle along the ribbon, try and gather the fabric at the same time.



e) When the needle reaches the end of the ribbon, tighten the gathers so the ribbon forms a circle and put the ends of the ribbon together.



f) Sew up the ends.



g) Done! You can do them in different ribbon material and insert the smaller flowers in the middle of the larger ones to create more colour contrasts. 



Use them as corsages, hair accessories or even a hand bouquet!


Love,
