My goal for May is to post mockups every Monday, yesterday was a crazy day but I am showing up anyway.

The group has been a little too quiet lately, and honestly, I was starting to wonder if this community was still useful to everybody in here. But if you made it this far, clearly you care. So no, the group is not really closing. But we are waking it up. This month inside Raising the Bar, it is Client Acquisition Month, and I do not want my Posh Draping University members sitting on the sidelines. So I’m opening up a 7-Day Client Acquisition Challenge to help you get visible, start conversations, attract new leads, and create movement in your business. The challenge will be $97, but it will be free for all VIP and Raising the Bar members. Each day, I’ll give you one simple action step to help you build momentum without feeling overwhelmed. If you’re willing to participate, comment CHALLENGE below so I know who’s ready to wake this group back up. I will send you the link.

If you missed this tutorial, comment "paper" below to get access to the replay. I’m showing you how to create an oversized luxury paper flower using Italian crepe paper and wire. This is perfect for backdrops, styled shoots, photo areas, installations, or anywhere you want to add a soft dramatic floral detail. comment "paper" below to get access to the replay!

Hi everyone! I’m Kiara, and I’m currently planning my wedding for next year. I’ve found some incredible inspiration from a UK designer (pictured), but I want to take this concept and give it a more luxurious, multi-dimensional feel. I’m working with a regal palette: Champagne, Emerald, Royal Purple, Black, and Gold. To achieve that "KayyDior" elegance, I want to play with texture—specifically mixing the heaviness of Velvet with the flow of Silk or Sheer fabrics. I’m looking for recommendations on specific fabric blends that drape well together without looking cluttered. I want it to feel opulent and sophisticated. Does anyone have tips on layering these specific textures on a standard pipe and drape system? Can’t wait to get my first set of poles and start practicing!

Hey PDU fam! Happy Friday. Before you close out the week, drop below real quick: ➊ What did you actually get done or practice this week? ➋ What didn't move that you wanted it to? ➌ What is one thing you want to focus on going into next week? Shoutout to everyone who showed up in the comments this week 👇 @Lucy Mireles cleaning and organizing the storage was the move this week. Did you get through it? Knowing exactly what you have is the first step to knowing what you can offer and what to invest in next. @Sasha Castle baby shower colour palettes, a two panel backdrop, balloon arch, centerpieces AND thinking about inventory for Bermuda all at once. That is a full creative and business week. Did the practice sessions land the way you envisioned? The space must transform, you said it yourself. Tell us how it went. @Ruth B. you did not just answer the question, you mapped out an entire business strategy. Content to clients, new designs to higher pricing, systems to more bookings, and digital products as the next play. That is not just thinking, that is someone who sees the full picture. How much of that actually moved this week? Everyone else, Regina, Darelle, Dianne and the rest of the fam, don't go quiet on a Friday. Drop your update below so we can close the week with intention. See you Monday!
