"We didn’t start out with a theme or an idea, and because each piece was done at different time during our planning the variety became part of the charm and the colors and hand-lettering tied it all together. All we knew was that we weren’t into anything that looked too perfect or “designed” or into just stamping our monogram onto each piece."
Just goes to show how far letting things unfold naturally will go towards giving so much more character and personality to, well, anything! Yes you should have an idea or direction, but as long as you trust your instincts, and make a point to step back every once in a while and take in the big picture, I'm a big believer in a collection of wonderful ideas rather than a perfectly staged "scheme". Good job, kids!
