paige anderson appel is so talented! she runs bash eco events, an event production company, specializing in stunning eco weddings. she even donates part of her event fees to A MILLION TREES LA! i just love her solution to a fun and eco-friendly christmas tree. just paint one on the wall (with low or no VOC paint of course) and voila! it looks so amazing!

paige hosted a lovely evening with delicious food cooked by her talented husband kevin appel who is an accomplished artist and art teacher. paige and kevin are not only an adorable couple but truly an amazing, dynamic and inspirational duo! in addition to the lovely hosts and guests, clever decoration and scrumptous food, were beautiful gifts available for sale from TRUNKSHOW luxury organic goods organized by the talented designer heather heron. shown above are organic bedding found at the TRUNKSHOW and totes from heather heron's new home furnishings line with environment.
