Prepping for my mini Valentine’s Campaign
To jump start my convertible Turban Line, INEZGALVEZ, I’ve decided to throw a ‘Valentine’s Preview & Cocktail Party’ in my local, Brooklyn loft. This accessory line has been an evolving side-project and has been getting me by here in NYC. So why not start by throwing a party? This past weekend, my creative side-kick, Avalonne, and I have been on a surprisingly productive streak. We worked on our mini campaign that includes a Flyer and ‘Vday Video Invite’ from yours truly. Will show you the end products very soon. Until then, check out our ‘In-The-Making’ pictures of our process.
I made a Photo Booth Station, where guests can play with props, wear my turbans, and get their pictures taken. Alongside that, Avalonne and I started brainstorming display ideas for the 5 Valentine Turbans that I’m promoting for this romantic season.( Promo Price will be available online from 2.10-2.19, more details coming soon) 
Avalonne had the great idea of making heart shaped frames out of ‘Pipe-Cleaners’. 

Setting up the frames and hand-picked turbans exclusive for the Valentine’s Promotion. 

The Photo Booth D.I.Y. Process
Ended up pulling an all-nighter for this one. I first did a ‘test’ sample, just to make sure it turned out alright. In the end, it was actually much simpler than expected. So the final frame was easier to make. I connected card stock until I was happy with a good enough frame size. Free-handed a design sketch, nothing too perfect. Colored in the shapes that I knew I wanted to keep. Then Avalonne helped me playfully tape Hot Pink and Violet duck tape on the other side. We carefully cut out the design and…*drumroll please*…Wallah! We had our Photo Booth frame. 


It was fun and productive weekend and I can’t thank my trusty partner, Avalonne, enough for all her creative input and help.

THE LAST…of my Double-Fingered Wing Ring has been SOLD!
To a lucky lady in London. I know right? London. I had no idea people out of the states would stumble upon my unfinished Etsy site. The Wing Ring was famous and I feel like I let the last one go with a BANG! Actually made the box out of photo paper. I really need to get back on my jewelry making again. Can’t let L.A. slow down business.

Haven’t had the urge to just doodle in awhile. Not just for fun. Heh. And I’m a fashion design major. Isn’t that sad? Happy to be back on track.
