Fusion Decor Delights!

I met a lovely lady in Toronto a few weeks ago who had the most beautiful table settings and I thought it would be fun to showcase these to you! Whether you are planning your wedding, a party or even having friends over for dinner, hopefully this will inspire you to do something perhaps a little different!

Deep Pinks, Purples & Orange are always strong fusion decor colours, start by thinking about your base colours and your accent colours... use different table cloths for layering eg. a deep pink table cloth with a purple organza overlay looks stunning. Why not use different coloured china to jazz up the table setting or bring in some Gold! What about little embellishments on your napkins or to use in the centre of each place setting in the theme of your event - as you can see on the pictures below, Butterfly's have been used as the table accents.

Now I am not suggesting that we can all re-create this incredible Elephant all made out of flowers - but what an exceptional centrepiece! Even if you are not a professional florist, there is nothing to stop you experimenting with flowers..... pick up a couple of small square vases, fill the bottom with coloured stones and then simply cut the stems of some roses short and fill the vases tightly with the roses either using the same colours or lining up 2 different colours of roses and see what a great centrepiece you can create!

A different look are these beautiful Peacock inspired table settings covered in Peacock feathers, the deep purple and aqua marine colours really blend well together and give a lot of warmth! While you may not cover all your tables with Peacock feathers, you can certainly use them as accents. The centrepieces here are large gold bowls with floating candles again in complimenting colours and petals! Again the added touch of a pink favor box really gives some punch to the overall look!

So whatever event or party you have planned over this year - don't be shy to try something different and create a new look just for you!

With special thanks to Nisha Chandra of Nisha Chandra Events who kindly let me photograph her tables! Absolutely stunning!
