Well as I was taking pictures of my Egyptian theme, I wasn’t just taking of design I was filming the back wall…everything. So I figured out the fix without taking down the entire draping I started pinning the black crush taffeta onto the gold sequin. It blocked out the unwanted scenery.

Day 5. Today you are going to make something that should not work, work. Pull three colors that have no business being in the same setup together. The combination that makes you second-guess yourself before you even start. The one where you look at the swatches and think a client would never go for this. That is the one I want to see today. Here is what this assignment is actually about. Most of us drape inside a box we built ourselves without realizing it. Ivory, champagne, blush. Dusty blue, sage, white. Safe combinations that photograph well and never surprise anybody. You have done those setups so many times your hands do not even think anymore. And when a client comes to you with a wild brief, a color story that is genuinely unexpected, you either talk them down to something safer or you take the job nervous. Today is the practice for that job. Pull the three colors. Put them together. Work it until it earns itself. And when you post it, tell us two things: What the three colors are What you had to do to make them stop fighting each other That second part is the lesson. Not the photo. The photo is just proof you did it. Some of the best setups I have ever seen came out of someone trying to prove a combination would not work and then not being able to stop looking at it. Title it September 30-Day Challenge: Day 5 so I can find you. Photo or video, both count. Then go leave a real comment on two other members' entries. Not a like. Tell them what you actually see. Day 5, tribe. Let's go!

My fabric is everywhere! Lol! This is some in the basement. More in the sea-can. Couldn’t resist showing Precious my polyester panels after joking about it in April class. 😂. I am happy I bought the Posh adjustable kit. After having to set up on standard 8ft high uprights and using step stools, I know how much easier it is with the adjustable ones. I feel l have a good amount of the primary color drapes. I plan to buy more colored fabric in stretch and more for pleating

My equipment is all in bags except the 1 in my mockup area. 1. I have a total of 4 kits 2. Base plates 8 total 3. My panels are in bins and logged in with the amount, color, material type, and height. This helps prevent me from having unnecessary inventory I don't need. Specifically colors. I wished I had invested more in neutral colors than colors I will not get much use from.
