I wanted to take a minute to let all of you know my new website is finally done. I recently launched it this week and am very excited for this new venture. You can all now visit me on Gray Star Design! Woohoo!

Gray Star Design is Up!

I am now offering plenty of services that include interior design, event design and of course access to my custom designed items for sale. My Snapshot Sessions are an easy way for me to help people who don’t live local but still give them the tools and information they need to create something beautiful. I am also offering my organizational services for those who need a little help getting their life in order. I am passionate about all of these things and cannot wait to work with new clients.

One of my main focuses for the business is to make my services available to everyone and that means they must be affordable. I take pride in my belief that you don’t need lots of money to have a beautiful home or throw an amazing event. I plan to prove this with Gray Star Design. I can guarantee my rates are less expensive than others in the field and that doesn’t mean you get less. It just means you hired a designer who truly cares about making people happy and doing what she loves.

So feel free to visit my site and take a look around. There is surely plenty to see and read. Like the many resources I include that are awesome shops and artists. And don’t forget to check out my team of experts who are the most talented people I know. They are all great to work with and are highly skilled and creative.

I hope you all enjoy what I have created! To keep up with what I am doing you can sign up for my newsletter and get updates and news. Until next time…

The save the dates for your big day are the first peek into your wedding. Besides letting your guests know they are invited it shares where and when you chose to have your wedding. I feel they should always reflect the bride and groom and the theme or style of your event. If they are not cohesive with the formal invitation it gets a little confusing.

I have seen some, along with the invites, that didn’t go with the wedding at all and it just doesn’t make sense to me. I know not everyone is a designer, but that is why you have a designer create them for you. It’s just disappointing when nothing really goes together. It doesn’t have to be matchy matchy but it should all have the same feel. It just shows the event wasn’t planned right or the bride and groom don’t care much about details.

Well, here are the save the dates I created so far. You can find them all in my Etsy shop. I try to offer a variety of styles that appeal to everyone. There are more to come soon! You can always stay updated on new items in my shop by checking out my Pinterest board.

As you know, I have been creating a whole line of event decor as well as invites and save the dates. I am working on some more postcard save the dates because people really seem to love them but I wanted to share the three wedding suites I currently have listed in my shop.

They all include an RSVP card as well as a direction card and white classic envelopes. I offer three other choices for the envelopes at no charge and the option to switch out the direction card for a reception card if the ceremony is in a church. And of course plenty of add ons to choose from. With them all printed on 120lb wove paper by me, my clients are getting the best service and materials, guaranteed.

Any item in my shop can be custom designed to match certain colors, etc., as well as creating a completely new design. Check them out and spread the word!

So I have been slaving away and new designs for my Etsy shop and wanted to share a few of my nautical themed Save the Dates. There are only two as of now but I think they are fun, classic and perfect for those couples who are getting married by the sea. I will share more of my recent additions in the next few blogs so keep your eyes peeled.
