reDIY | hula hoop canopy

4/27/2014

 
by christina britt lewis | photography by angela statzer

angela is a trip. she makes me laugh till my face hurts. you see her reflected in the faces of the people she photographs. we are laughing because she is laughing. you see her reflected in the things she photographs too. she finds the beauty, whimsy, and artsy in every room because she is beautiful, whimsical, and artful. it all just comes naturally to her AND she can assemble a light fixture from ikea...
Picture
angela styles, shoots, edits, and uploads the photos of every redesign for us. seeing what we do through her eyes makes me proud of what we do in a way i never was before. she makes me sing that josh grobin song...you lift me UUUUP...she helps me let go of all of my notgoodenough and see the beauty.

we all feel that way.
notgoodenough.
when you find somebody who makes you see beauty and feel good enough...
keep them.
nomatterwhat.

sometimes she makes kelly and me stick our heads through a hula hoop too...
the redesign company
lewis and cory, owners of virtuoso painting company, did more than make these walls kelly green. they saved the day for us on this redesign by hauling the heavy stuff and making us laugh more than usual while we tackled two rooms in one day. *phew*
the redesign company uncle bill
lindsay wanted a canopy in her room. we knew uncle bill would make sure it stayed in the ceiling because he's THE BEST OF THE BEST HANDYMAN in charlotte. he won Charlotte Magazine's BOB Award AGAIN, people! BIG LOVE to all of you who voted! come celebrate with us at The Fillmore Charlotte on may 31 at 7:00 so we can hug and kiss and thank YOU in real life! WOOHOO!!

back to the canopy...
  • get a hula hoop - the light up ones at target are fun
  • get 4 gauzy panels with a rod pocket - these are from ikea
  • try to get the dang sticker off the hula hoop - this is the hardest part
  • feed the rod pockets through the hula hoop
  • tie some pretty ribbon to 3 evenly spaced places on the hula hoop
  • tie the the 3 strands of ribbon in 1 knot
  • hang from a hook in the ceiling that somebody who knows what they are doing has installed
  • tie the extra ribbon in a bow if you like that sort of look which lindsay does.
  • get handsome men to model your masterpiece and tweet it with the hashtag #lch so we know
