Leora wants a GOBO!

Leora and her fiancee are looking to have a GOBO at their wedding...what is a GOBO you ask? It is a projection of an image on the floor and/or walls during an event. A lot of department stores are doing this besides the event planning community.

In order to create the GOBO, the image has to be made as a black background with white lettering in the foreground. The lights would then add the color. To be honest I wasn't sure it was going to work out seeing that a lot of my monograms are color contrasting and complimenting

A Save the Date Draft for Sophia.

Free Cothing re: website improvements!

Hey Everyone!
I just got through updating the website and I would like to get some critiques on it.

I will be giving away one fourstrokesofbrooklyn ladies tee to the first person who can give me a review of the site and offer some suggestions. If we make it to ten comments I will give that tenth person a lady tee and undies to match!

All you have to do is peruse the events and paper webpages accessible through HERE.
both winners will also get a blog spotlight, and of course no repeat posting : )

AuTour Du Monde

On Monday December 10th I planned and hosted two events. Both at an Ethnic/French Cuisine Restaurant in Clinton Hill called AuTour Du Monde.

Autour Du Monde is French for 'around the world'. Considering the menu, I would say 'around the world' is quite fitting. To obtain a sense of what niche the chef wanted to fulfill, he offered me his signature Duck Quesadilla smothered in Zucchini Tomato Salsa. It had a unique yet comforting taste.



Champagne glasses ready to go, YUM.



Council Member Letitia James was in attendance along with PACC to lend their support to ATDM owners.



AuTour Du Monde is located at 860 Fulton Street at the corner of Clinton Avenue in Bedford Stuyvesant. They are open daily at 8 a.m. and serve breakfast, lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch. Email me for a pdf of their menu or for media inquiries.
