Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday!! This week is our Summer 2014 Collections Launch Week, and we hope you have been enjoying our launched collections thus far. We have been posting a new collection everyday: Monday was our Paddington Bear Collection by the Camelot Design Studio, and today we launched It’s a Bird’s Life by Heather Rosas. Be sure to check out our previous blog posts on them, as well as the full collections and coordinating free projects on our website.

 

We have been branching into the crafting world, and now have a wonderful collection of felt! We have soft felt (printed and solid designs), hard felt (printed and solid), and adhesive felt (printed and solid) in 12×12″ pre-cuts – perfect for all your crafting and decorative needs. Our soft felt is also available by the yard, both in our printed and solid designs. Be sure to check all of our pretty felt designs and colors on our website!

 

In honor of our felt, we have got a very adorable and fun tutorial for this week’s How To’s Day. Today we are sharing with you our super sweet Basket of Fruits Tutorial. With all the delicious colors found in our felt collection, we were inspired to make something yummy (with names such as Melon, Raspberry, Bubblegum, and Chocolate…how couldn’t we be?). Our little fruit basket includes all of your favorites – a slice of watermelon, a banana, a pear, an apple, and a lemon – so sweet that they look almost good enough to eat.

This  felt and ad-fab™  project is perfect for playing with your little ones or for decorating a kitschy room. This would also be a great project to make with little kids; let them choose their favorite fruits and they can help cut out the shapes and glue on the pieces! It would be a fun way to spend an afternoon together. The fruit possibilities are endless, so have fun with this tutorial, and make your very own basket of yummy fruits!

Hi everyone!

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone is having a great one so far!! It’s such a pretty day out, we decided to have a fun photo shoot outside for today’s post! And even more prettiness coming your way with our current Neon & On FQ Bundle Giveaway that ends tomorrow. Be sure to enter HERE if you haven’t yet! :)

 

Speaking of photo shoots, today’s How To’s Day is inspired by just that! Here at the Camelot Design Studio, we are always looking for new and progressive ways to improve the look of our blog. We try to post interesting and refreshing things daily, and we hope you have been enjoying our posts thus far, but there’s always room for improvement! One thing that we are trying to get better at is our photography skills. A well-written post is one thing, but having an eye-catching photograph is what will grab the reader’s attention. What we have learnt through practice is that no matter how fantastic your camera is, lighting is key to a brilliant photo! However, studio lighting such as softboxes, umbrella lighting, and reflectors can be a pretty pricey investment…especially if you don’t need to use it every day.

We have come up with a pretty brilliant DIY project that is 1) cost-effective and 2) a great way to improve your photography skills/photos. Our DIY Soft Light Reflector uses our satin and, if you can believe, a hula hoop! How’s that for being resourceful? :) We have found that our soft light reflector reduces shadow lines and softens the appearance of your subject, thus creating a better, smoother, and prettier photograph!!

Now you can be your own professional photographer at home, no matter where you live. Take us for example: we’ve had to make due with our urban surroundings of trucks and warehouse buildings. Looks pretty good though, right? You never would have believed! :)
