Celadon wishes you a green christmas!!!

I have been shopping lately and am having a hard time buying more stuff! It seems that there is already so much at my house, my warehouse, my storage units – that how can I possibly buy more??? I decided to go through some old decor stuff and re-purpous items for christmas presents. I am going to paint them and make them cooler than anything I could find in the store. It makes me feel so much better to recycle some old dust collectors!!!! The above photo features an event we did over the summer using our recycled fence wood tables, and note the white fencing around the chandeliers- yea, they were from the back yard too!!! Thanks to the wind storm that blew down half our fence and instigated this project!!

Question – how come I cannot go to the dump and search for cool items before they get ground up? Sometimes I snag things before I get caught, last time I found a totally awesome old wood sled!!! It seems so sad that so much good stuff just goes to waste! What can possibly be done to prevent this?

New Chair – Marilyn Style

We are adding to our classic hollywood collection with some great new furniture. This is an antique chair that we literally found in the garbage and re-did in a retro classic style. The image is painted – not a print!!

Busy Days at Celadon Events

We have been working our butts off for several weeks here at Celadon. Between moving our warehouse and setting up several large events (as well as several smaller), we are beat! But alas, the season is just beginning. It is time to get my list of part timers together for sets and strikes as well as start getting uber organized. I’ve put up my new calendar in my new office, printed out my proposals and booked events, and am working on getting the build and purchase sheets organized. My goal is to get the majority of all things done before the season gets thick with work, so that I can be ready for all the last minute events (which always happen, and we love).

The new shop is not thoroughly organized yet, so I would not stop by just yet, maybe next week. However we are super happy to have a cool new space to operate from.

In terms of the last few weeks, you should see some of the cool stuff we have done lately. My goal being to be awesome and creative (no matter how much actual money we make) – we have pulled off some super creative bits and pieces lately. The JDRF event was fabulous. The ceiling was a total risk, but it totally paid off with its own coolness as well as, of course, learning experience. It took forever, but loved it!! Here is the best shot I could come up with, however I did get some pro shots so I will post them when they arrive.

The New and Improved Celadon Events

Hello All,

Celadon Events is an event decoration and design company located in Reno, Nevada. But I am also passionate about new design inspiration as well as the process of becoming a “Green” company (hence the name Celadon). The foundations of event rental companies is in “recycling”. I say that because that is what we do. House and re-rent items that can be used for your events. We re-purpose our items constantly, based on what our clients are looking for. I also try and come up with new ways to re-use items that have been damaged or broken.

It is my goal with this blog to bring forward awesome inspirations, show off recent personal work, and also display cool recycled tips based on crazy ideas that I come up with. Tune in next week for my first true setup informational blog that will hopefully provide all of my awesome clients and friends with some fresh food for thought. Stay Tuned!
