Up&Coming III

Up&Coming features event inspirations, trends, and some stray observations. 

Capture your special event, especially weddings, with Live Painting. Live Event Painting is... kind of like a courtroom artist.  You hire a painter who "paints" the action of the evening - AT the event!  This could be fun for a fundraiser, a gift to a bride&groom,  or the perfect enhancement to an event in a gallery or museum.

In sickness and in death, right? Well, some funeral homes are expanding their list of services by renting space out for private events!  I think it's great. As long as cheesy funeral potatoes are on the menu.

And, just for the fun of it, how many friends have I coaxed out of a tree when they've invited 8 friends over for dinner and insist on making the salad dressing, the breadsticks, and some complicated mixologist-worthy themed cocktail?  Just say NO! However, here is a funny little book  called Make the Bread, Buy the Butter for those who can't say no to making homemade jam at Christmas Eve dinner.
