Lianne has been one of my favourite people to work with! She is so kind and passionate about making sure her work is the definition of perfect. She takes so much time and pays so much attention to every little detail that you are always amazed by her beautiful work. Lianne created the most beautiful piece for Violet's room around her mirror. I stared at that wall for months wondering how I could make it look finished. Sometimes was missing and I couldn't figure out what it was. Well Lianne came to the rescue and now I stare at the wall in amazement because she created something so beautiful and personal to my daughter. She nailed the colour scheme in her room all virtually! I sent her some photos of the décor in Violet's room and she used those as inspiration. When she arrived to hang it up we were amazed at how close it was to the photos I sent her. The paper flowers she creates are beautiful, timeless and high quality! I've also attended events where Lianne has setup photo backdrop walls. Again her attention to detail is beautiful and she makes sure that you have the perfect place to take photos to capture memories that last forever.
If you are looking for someone to make your room or event extra special make sure to contact Lianne. No one is going to work as hard as she will to make sure that you are happy with the final product.
