Paper Flower Backdrop Installation At Dollface Oakville

As you enter through the doors of Dollface Oakville lash salon, you will be greeted with a spacious and welcoming environment, full of natural light. A staircase will take you to the open concept waiting area and salon, where you'll find ladies taking their lash naps in a classy and relaxed environment (lash naps are actually a compliment to the technicians, in case you didn't know!).

Enter: the waiting area!

Here's a bit of info about the process of our custom installation:

This was what we were working with BEFORE the paper flower decor makeover:

Upon our initial consultation, we took a walk around the open concept salon and did some color swatching for the paper flower decor.

Notice the pink/ white/ grey panels on the far side of the wall? Damn right, we based our swatches off of those colors! There was also a shiny gold mirror that caught our eye (which worked out perfectly as subtle accents in our final design).

And then we discussed with owners Sara and Jay what kind of look they were going for (to which they responded: "Big, airy, flowy, and something that would work as a selfie/ video wall.)

Then we went home and pondered.

After taking into account lighting, pre existing wall color, and the overall look the clients were looking for, we decided on a swatch of white, light pink (slightly darker than the wall color to give it a subtle pop), and light grey with gold accents. We consulted with our friend and Interior Design guru Miranda regarding the colors and decided to take a risk and ordered in a pearl pure white cardstock. In certain lighting, the pearl appears slightly grey, and some might even call it lavender. The pink paper roses looked full and so lifelike. It slightly freaked Sara out in the beginning but as soon as the flowers were laid out onto the floor, there was no doubt that the pearl white roses were everyone's favorite.

Then came the luxury paper flower installation.

Two hours and some tasteful addition of accents later, the installation was complete! Here are AFTER photos of the final look:

What do you think about my latest project? There's just something about the subtle shimmer of pearl roses that makes the entire installation look high end. Pictures don't do them justice.
