Simply Beautiful

Hi all, 
Just a quick update. It's holiday week, we've been busy for the last couple of weeks preparing for our Eid hampers and all other projects.  
And this months we have 2 projects for engagement. 
In Chinese tradition, when the guy propose to the girl he will bring his entire family to meet up the girl's family to introduce himself and ask the permision for her hand in marriage. They will bring offering like foods, fruits, clothes and jewellery to give to the girl and the family. 
Then the girl's family will treat everyone for a feast. 
 
Anyway back to our projects.   
 
This month Engagement Projects #1   
Floral pink & brown party favors kit. 
I make this heart shape tiny box for table decoration.
 

 

 

The guest will have this cute favor bag when the get home when you turn around it has a save the date information for when the wedding will be. 
Drink wrapper to make it a little fancy.
 
This month Engagement Projects #2
And just last before our holiday we had a last minute request for an engagement invitation. We usually didn't take any last minute design order because we need to spare 3-4 weeks to process everything according to projects queue, but since we've finalizing the previous orders of hampers and stuffs our production team giving a green light for just one more projects before their holiday.  
So this invitation is done in less than 2 weeks, is pretty quick since the costumer is such a nice lady, she shows me the type of design that she likes and we only do some minor changes to the design before we print so it was real quick. 
She want the invitation to be simple yet beautiful.  
For this one her theme is red & gold.
 

 

 
So that was all for now. We're on holiday until 22th of July, but we do have other projects deadline this month. We'll give another updates soon.

Thank you ;)

Tiny Ribbon

Hi everyone. I want to share some diy tips on how to make a cute tiny ribbon, using some simple tools you can find in your home. 
So what you need is:
1. Ribbon (I'm using 1cm width) 
2. Fork 
3. Scissors 
 
I'm using this cute red ribbon for my projects. 
Lay out your ribbon under the fork, just like so. You can cut your ribbon to your desire length but I like to cut mine after.  
Can you read the A and B sign?
Pull out A from the back and put it in front of the fork. 
Pull B in front of A and tuck it into the middle of the fork to the back. 
 
Still holding out B pull it up and through the middle then tuck it inside the knot.  
Pull it tight. 
In this stage you can adjust the length of your ribbon knot.  
Your fork will look like this.
 
Then you can take your ribbon out of the fork. Then cut it. 
 
And it's done! There you have it, a cute tiny ribbon for your diy projects.
 
Here I'm using these tiny ribbons for this. A souvenir for newborn baby celebration.
I hope you find this helpfull. See you next time. For more Lalalovprojects follow us on instagram @lalalovgift.
