At long last i am able to share these pics from an Open Mic Night that I was asked to design around a month ago... I wanted to create a handmade but fresh kind of look for the posters, so i hand-coloured white marker on translucent paper, using a 3D typeface. These posters were hung around campus in windows and glass doors, they looked extra cool with the sun shining through them!

Next up i bought 2nd hand sheets and tablecloths of a cute vintage red and blue. I used this to made flags to hang in and around the stage... it was time consuming, but overall pretty easy - i'm totally going to make more one day using other cool material for some other event!

On the night we hung up the flags and decorated the stage with old vintage lamps. It made for a beautiful scene for lots of very talented people to perform. A special thanks to Harsh for taking pictures on the night!

  8. The flags look awesome, but yeah time consuming. Did you glue them or sew them?

    @ Ashlee - I sewed a row of material at both ends, and then cut it into triangles which alternated along... x
