Indonesia Food and Hotel Exhibition 2013

So Sorry that I have been absent from my blog for a while, I was pretty busy because we will have a music concert and also art exhibition in June 2013. A lot of preparations are needed, designing posters, deciding on the themes, getting a right place for the concert, which is the most tiring as my husband and I have to travel around Jakarta looking for the perfect place that suits our needs and budget. So I will be quite busy for the next few months.

I went to the Indonesia Food and Hotel Exhibition 2013 last week, Friday 12 April 2013, to visit my customer's booth. Wow!!! it was a real WOW exhibition. Exhibitors are from all around the world. Food, Horeca, Beverages, etc, It was really an eye-opener event for me. It was my first time to visit this exhibition. The Exhibition is held annually, next year will be in Bali.

 

My customer's booth is nicely decorated. She covered the floor with the Coffee sacks to create the feel of nature in her booth. It's a creative idea. My handmades are also part of the decorations. ^^

 

Here I share some pictures taken at my customer's booth.

Coffee Project (III)

I was asked to make more sets of Coffee fruits on stem with leaves and coffee flowers hair decorations. I really have to rush this additional order. They need it on this coming Wednesday, 10 April 2013. Last minute order is actually very difficult for me because I don't want to spoil the details on my work, but I am glad that they like my handmade. I can only try my best to finish everything on time.

Finally I am done with this project. I am so happy to see the results. I hope my handmade will make the Maharaja's booth the most attractive booth in the exhibition. That's the whole purpose of the decorations. Catch attention and huge business deal.

Glossy finishing



Coffee Project

Tonight my working table is full of coffee flowers and coffee fruits, still lots more to make. Hope I could make it on time for the exhibition. Below is the picture of the coffee fruits before I apply glossy finishing on them. Real coffee fruits are shiny. I use Japanese Padico Gloss Sealer for the finishing. It is easy to use, quick-dry and doesn't smell. They are also available in my shop :)

coffee fruits almost the real size

The coffee flowers are for rings and earrings. Today I uploaded the picture of the rings. I will upload the picture of the earrings as soon as I am done with them.

Coffee Flowers as rings

I am working on this "coffee" project ordered by one of Indonesia famous coffee trader Maharaja. They will use the fruits as decorations for their exhibition in this coming April 2013. The flowers will be applied as rings and earrings.

"Not many people aware of how does coffee flowers look like, we want to share the knowledge with them", said the owner of Maharaja. I really think this is a very good idea, because it's also my first time seeing coffee fruits and flowers!!!!! This is a very challenging project. I love it ^o^
