Retro Pop {new wedding invitation collection}
alannah rose new designs, weddingsThis season we’re loving all things colourful and retro. I’ve always been a bit of traditionalist when it comes to colour (think black and white), so I’ve had a lot of fun with our new range coming to the store soon ~ The Retro Pop collection.
Retro Pop is all about boldness and colour. Think happy, fun celebrations with a modern twist. Change the colours of the designs from any on our colour chart or revert back to black and white – it does after all, never go out of style!
The new Retro Pop wedding invitation collection is coming to Alannah Rose very soon, for pre orders, please email us for details.
Modern {sunshine}
inspiration boards, weddingsI love the colour combination of our Modern Retro wedding invitation design, even though we’ve made it in other colours, the original yellow and grey has such a freshness to it. For today’s wedding inspiration I dreamt of a wedding with sleek lines- a stylish bride in a no-fuss hollywood glamour gown, an unusual bouquet in a bright spot of yellow, sexy shoes and clean and modern decorations like this ghost chair.

Wrap me in {rainbows}
alannah rose parties, life, parties, the restToday we’re getting ready for a little 6th birthday celebration for my daughter. The theme she’s chosen is rainbows, and whilst there’s so many rainbow parties around and it’s a popular choice, it’s a choice that’s dear to our hearts and especially special to her.
Last year when she started prep, we went through a lot of separation anxiety, two terms of it actually (in Australia that’s half a year), there were tears every morning at drop off, and I mean EVERY, which was distressing for me, distressing for her, and difficult for her teacher – a Mr – who handled her absolutely amazingly and took her on his knee each morning as I pried my fingers out of her grip.
At some stage amongst all the tears I had a chat with my Aunty, a school teacher who had just been to a talk by Petria King – a well-known author, inspirational keynote speaker, teacher and facilitator. Petria’s talk was about the rainbow ritual and accompanying story book You, Me and the Rainbow. A story and ritual developed by Petria to help children deal with challenging, sad or distressing news. My Aunty thought it might be worth a try with our separation anxiety, so I ordered the book and away we went.
Well, within a week of reading the book every night and doing the rainbow ritual, Alannah was going off to school, wrapped in a rainbow and not a tear in sight!
Since then, she’s been obsessed with rainbows, we talk about them a lot, and every now and then when she’s feeling a little unsure, I send her rainbow from my heart to hers, and it’s enough to give her a little more confidence to head off to whatever it is she’s doing.
I highly recommend the book, it’s a beautiful story with a purpose, and it’s certainly one that’s become special in our home. So tomorrow, we’ll be sending rainbows around, I hope you all catch one too.
Stay tuned for the pics – we’ve had so much fun with the theme rainbow, Alannah has even finger knitted some of the decorations, which is so incredibly sweet.
