Settings of Note for WAMSO
Gunkelmans was asked to participate in the WAMSO Settings of Note fundraising event. Designers and other companies are asked to design a table setting on a theme of choice and then (mostly) women bid on the items on the table. All the proceeds go to WAMSO which is the MN Orchestra Volunteer Association that provides music education. Supporting the arts has always been a priority of Gunkelmans and this is a fun way for us to get involved.
Since it is mostly women that attend the event, we thought about what is something that all women love? Well a spa, of course! So our table setting was designed by Jodi Mellin with a Spa Retreat theme.
A simple "meal" of sushi and cucumber water were featured on the table surrounded by calming colors of pink, green and creamy white. Tasteful orchids and greens adorned the table top and natural wicker added a beautiful calming texture. Spa related beauty products were placed at each setting as well.
The Spa Retreat theme was a huge hit at the event! Gunkelmans can also help you with any party; graduation, wedding, holidays etc. We have a fabulous staff of designers that can bring out the inner creativity in you!
A special thank you to all the donated products, we couldn't have done such a wonderful table without your generosity.
