COFFEE AND OLIVE DESIGNS EST. 2024

Hello everyone! Whilst on maternity leave, I feel inspired to create artwork for your naked walls.. Designs that bring your space to life!

With luxurious colours and textures, and options of your own personalisation, these art canvases are going to be the perfect addition to your home, your sanctuary.

Being creative has always had my heart, so I’m excited to start this new adventure whilst caring for my baby at home. Soon you will be able to order through DM. Thank you everyone for your ongoing support!

This used to be a business for decorating events, however with a newborn on the way it makes more sense to be creative from the comfort of my own home in Cheltenham. I cannot wait to start making textured art canvases for you all!

Happy 1st of December Everyone 🎄

I am so excited to share with you all that I have decorated for The Mercure Grand Hotel !!!

The party season has officially begun and I have created this Christmas Garland for the entrance of the hotel, it is estimated that about 6000 guests will see my work this December. All of the classic festive colours are put together for this special piece, with frosted foliage and gold leaves to really make it come to life ❄️✨

I said a couple of months ago that I really wanted to start decorating for larger venues… and here I am putting together my own ideas and designing something for one of the most historic hotels in my city. Still a long way to go with my skills and making each one better as I go on, but it’s been a great start in developing what I know so far. This was complimentary to the hotel, in order to gain more for my portfolio - so thank you to The Grand for giving me the opportunity! Much more to come, it’s only up from here.

Such a proud moment for Coffee and Olive Events 🤍💫👏🏽

On Saturday I decorated for an engagement that was taking place in the Rainbow Woods in Bath ✨

I decorated, then waited in the woods for their arrival to take their proposal pictures. My most intimate decor set up yet! And with only a week and a half to prepare… it turned out quite well ☺️ these pictures do not do it justice!

Baby shower no.2 of July 💚

Baby in Bloom 🌸🌷

3rd July 2022
Yesterday we created a beautiful setting for Rubys baby shower in her Mums special garden. We designed and put together our own flower arrangements to go on the white flower stands. We put them either side of the most beautiful antique arm chair that Ruby had brought out from the house to use during the day. We also made a separate table centre piece to keep the theme going from one side of the garden to the other side.

I hung dried orange pieces from the beautiful big tree which is Rubys Heavenly Mums tree, a very special tree so it was the focal point in the garden. These dried orange pieces were also put into the flower arrangements. We then wrapped the tree in white cloth to stand out the branches against the background.

Her Mums tree was decorated already with such cute lights and ornaments, a statement piece of its own. So much personality!

Decorating nature to make its beauty stand out even more, has to be my new favourite thing 🌳🌸

My Mum used to be a florist and I would always watch her make flower arrangements at home, doing this yesterday and making my own felt extra special for this particular baby shower 🤍

When Moët is at the picnic >>>

🐶🍾

Had the best time creating something a little different on Sunday, it wasn’t an event as such but an opportunity for the beautiful to get some photos for her Instagram account. I loved taking pictures of her for the owner, she was the best little model - Moët is 4 months old now and the most amazing American Bully ever!!!

I was given free reign to do what ever I wanted - So with that, I created a foliage backdrop using the bottom half of a 2m hoop with .artificial for decor, and I incorporated orange lilies for that pop of colour which looked beautiful against her champagne fur 🧡 I didn’t want anything too big to take away attention from Moet, but the foliage was perfect for the setting and the addition of a Moët bottle made it more detailed and personal.

*picnic basket is also mine, available for photo prop hire*

My first wedding decor complete! I created this beautiful set up for the lovely Mr and Mrs Fenty, at the most stunning venue in Clifton. The foliage hoop was perfect for it!

Working alongside the bride, we came up with the idea of using foliage and blush pink flowers on a gold hoop to suit the theme of the wedding. I used 10 metre white silk cloth to add to the trellis which the bride wanted to cover, as the trellis was attached to the venue wall and not able to take down. It’s all about adapting to your surroundings!

Thank you to Rebecca for giving me this opportunity! Congratulations to the lovely couple 🤍

All props in this pic are my own, (the cloths on the trellis, but not the all available for hire!

NEW STYLIST ALERT 🚨 The Auburn Artist of Hair Loss

The Auburn Artist Of Hair Loss!

Very excited to introduce my sisters new business in bespoke wig making but also offering all types of hairdressing services. She recently went self employed and now works at Perfect Nails which is based in Staple Hill.

If you’re looking for a new hair stylist, go and check out her Instagram/page, or pop into the salon and grab a price list! She is also offering 20% off for all new clients between now and December!!

I loved doing this garland for her to draw attention to the new alert at the salon! Beautiful colours to represent her new business name also.

When working with small spaces sometimes there are obstacles to overcome. The obstacle here was there is a shutter to the salon, so the garland had to fit safely just behind that. After an anxious trial of bringing the shutters down, and one popped balloon later, the final result of this thin balloon garland looked beautiful and I’m so glad Danni was pleased with it!

Good luck to my sister on her new chapter, and I’m very grateful for her giving me my first opportunity to decorate 🧡

Let’s dig a little deeper…

I gained a passion for events and design when I was 17, I developed a very good eye for detail and after being an assistant for an Asian wedding company in 2018 my passion grew even more.

I’ve also always been a creative person which I definitely got from my Mum, who is the main reason I believe I started this business. She always supported me, kept me motivated and determined to go far in life.

In 2018 we wanted to throw her a 50th birthday party, for her 48th, because we knew deep down she wouldn’t make it that far as she had cancer at the time. We needed to wait a little for her to get better before we could plan and celebrate, but predictions came true and she didn’t last much longer after her 48th birthday. This meant we never even got round to organising a party. And after her passing from cancer, I had lost faith and all the passion I had to continue with my dreams.

The reason I am telling you this today is because this business means much more to me than people may realise. I am introducing to you a second part of what I will be doing which is decorating for those who are terminally ill or suffering with a disease, who aren’t able to step outside of their own homes due to illness, children who’s home is the hospital… etc. This will be done on a free of charge basis, however any donations given would be greatly appreciated. All decorations will be from stock I have at that time.

It would also have been my first chance to organise and decorate if Mum had been able to celebrate for her birthday, so this is why it’s so important for me. Since I couldn’t do it for her, I want to do it for other beautiful souls out there. I wish to help everyone else be able to celebrate an event or simply just see something so creative and lovely without the stresses of organising and paying - on top of everything they’re already going through.

I’m looking into working closely with charities as well, there’s so much more to come from this.. For further information please do not hesitate to contact me 🤎
