By dot@mintsPublished: May 22nd, 2009Posted in: Featured, Inspirations, Mints Picks, News, random dots This year Charlyn Koo didn’t attend National Stationery Show as my life has been a little bit frantic with two businesses, many on-going projects, and a wedding to plan, and though I stand by my decision that I should only attend the show if I could give it my best, I do miss new York and being a part of the creative circle. We debut our first collection last year and we met many talented designers, such as Elum Designs and Red Cap Cards and our personalized collection is now available exclusively at Neiman Marcus. As a newbie in the industry, we did a pretty good job and I was really looking forward to launch more designs but oh well…
This is our idea board and work for last year show and the good news is we have already started our new inspiration boards with many new products coming in 2010! New york, we will be back soon. =)

I am so happy that I finally got some of the pictures from Nancy and Edward today. They are so pretty, as I expected. =P
Like many couples, Nancy and Edward wanted us to design a modern celebration with a touch of the traditions. We know Red means luck in Chinese cultures, and the Ritz Carlton in San Francisco is a place that resemblances romantic elegance, so our goal was to combine these two concepts . I picked to the carmel iron lanterns to be used for their ceremony to romantize and lighten up the tent a bit. The table centerpieces were designed by Canna.

Many people ask us how to turn the traditional floral art into something personal and unique. My answer is short and simple. It is all came from you guys. Your stories inspire us to continue to explore and to create something new. Our ideas may come from your love of fruity oranges or a piece of jewelry that you always wear. I am not kidding. Many great designs are came from little details.

Orange is my bff’s favorite color as it is happy and energetic, but she couldn’t use it for her wedding as her parents wanted everything in red and red only. So, I was a bit hesitated to share these beautiful pictures by John as I am sure my BFF would be a bit disappointed. But oh well, maybe I just send you something in orange this Christmas to make up your loss. =P
