On November 10th, 2018 we brought our immersive pop-up series to Salt Lake City, Utah with CreateCelebrate Holiday. We couldn’t wait to spread a little holiday cheer to local families and influencers with our colorful, IG-worthy pop-up filled with photo-ops, delicious bites, DIY crafts and balloons for days!

We love connecting with local communities, businesses and influencers to bring new ways of getting creative with Mixbook. We invited a few local SLC businesses to join in on the fun and cozy up to 170+ guests and their families.

Here’s all the fun that we unwrapped at CreateCelebrate Holiday!

DIY Family Photo Op

Guests were able to create the perfect family holiday photo in a beautiful, bright space curated and designed by interior designer Ashley Wilson using Mixbook wall art.

We couldn’t leave without getting this pic in an adorable holiday living room designed by @athomewithashley. What better way to kick off the holiday season?!

Stamp & Send Holiday Cards

Guests picked a Mixbook holiday card designed by My Mind’s Eye from a colorful envelope wall, wrote personalized greetings, and customized their designs with craft supplies provided by Sakura, Pipsticks, and Blitsy. Over 100 cards were mailed!
