Mood Board

I mentioned in this post that I was doing a course with Holly Becker from Decor8 (beyond inspiring!). Our recent homework assignment was to do a mood board relating to our blog. 

I haven't worked on a mood board in ages and, in my usual manner, I procrastinated a little, just letting thoughts run around in my head. When I did get down to the nitty gritty of it all I had soo much fun and I quite like how things have turned out. It's a bit 'darker' than I intended but feedback from 'my' brides (photos and Thank You's) is really important to me and so I included these references. There is always room for improvement, though ... especially when it comes to my photography skills (or lack thereof).

Here is the board (laid out on a recently finished DIY pinboard) as well as some zoom-ins.


In terms of making wedding dresses, I tend to prefer uncluttered lines and simple silhouettes so there is quite a lot of 'busy-ness' on this board. It does, however, reflect the things I love about my work and what inspires me.

I would love to hear what you think of my mood board.

Love,

    I really like your mood board. If I was a "too be"bride, hahahha, I would love a mood board.
