CONFETTI SYSTEM

    Confetti System is two friends—Julie Ho and Nicholas Andersen—who make their living creating festive and kaleidoscopic "party systems" out of tissue paper, sparkly mylar, and more. The idea behind Confetti System generally is "to play with the idea of celebration, and what objects can come out of that — to make it something new," says Ho.

    In addition to garlands, party hats, blindfolds, and party necklaces, the duo makes large geometrically shaped piñatas, which are covered in hand-cut fringe made from tissue paper or Mylar.
    Confetti System also directs and creates installations and sets for the fashion and music industry, working with J. Crew, United Bamboo, Opening Ceremony, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Beach House.

    As noted in a previous post, inspiration can come from the strangest places..."What we get really inspired by are, when you go into old 99-cent stores, the bulk supplies that are shitty but look beautiful in the way they’re packaged or the graphic design," Ho explains.
    Their handy work is far form the 99-cent store decorations due to the huge amount of time put into each handmade "party" piece. The end product showcases the duo's love and dedication to creating products that will not only be visually impressive but inspire viewers and create a fun-loving and inspirational atmosphere.
    I wish I could decorate every room in my house with their pieces! So much imagination, sparkle, and happiness.
