more elephants? more elephants!

Another couple who wanted a custom elephant set for their cake--this wedding has a lovely black and gold color scheme, with a tiny bit of teal, reflected in the bride's veil flowers. They liked the idea of having a freestanding sign with all the vital info so that it makes the perfect display in their home after the wedding day has passed.

At the base of the sign, there's a little ladybird.

And here's the wedding cake toppers! The customer asked if I could do stripes in the wedding colors of cream, baby blue and red, and I was eager to suggest a stripey pattern just like my new Nutcase bike helmet.

Funny thing....just this morning, I stumbled across this new design by one of my heroes Jonathan Adler--I guess great minds think...um....alike? If it didn't say "Prozac" on the side, it would make a cute circus big top for those fun elephants to play in.

Indian Inspirations

I had a recent commission that was really fun--a couple saw my bride and groom elephant figures, but wanted their set to reflect their Indian heritage. I was sent a few images of traditional outfits worn by Indian brides and grooms, and we talked about options, finally deciding to do a pattern on each elephant inspired by the elegant fabrics. Jasmine flowers and a sparkly bindi on the bride too!
