A few months ago, Sharon of Knot Just Flowers asked me to collaborate on a “European Boho” photo shoot she was doing with the fabulous Marianne Wilson.  She had seen the place cards I did for The Cream and wanted a similar chalkboard effect for menus and place cards.  Since she had a tight deadline, and since I didn’t have any black chalkboard paint on hand, I used some black linen paper, dirtied it up a bit with some chalk, and wrote on it with some white charcoal pencils.  They came out great and Marianne captured some pretty gorgeous photos.

Even better – the shoot was featured today on Style Me Pretty!  There’s some serious inspiration in these photos.  Maybe I’ll throw a European Boho dinner party one of these days…
