Urban Glam

A while back we ran contests on a group of fabulous blogs to gather inspiration for our next Lab event! We asked you to create your best board and we chose which boards we would be bringing to life. We wanted to share these boards with you as a taste for what you can expect to see at our upcoming event. We have 6 of the best vendors teams working away to bring your boards to life. 

Our Urban Glam inspiration board comes from The City Sage blog. Jade created this fabulous board.
