Vintage Style Wedding LOVE

I love all things vintage...well, not all things but most things.

And, I love weddings.  Which is why my online shop is mainly wedding related items now.

Put those two loves together and my heart skips a beat.  Vintage style wedding LOVE!!

I just put the finishing touches on these:








I made these with some vintage heart shapped tart tins that I scored at an estate sale last summer.
I filled each one with scraps of burlap and tea dyed lace and topped with moss to transform them into bird nests!  I curled some coated wire into a photo holder shape and cut out some cute birds from manilla index card stock.  Each bird then got stamped with romantic script, distressed around the edges and then stamped with a whimisical number.

I'm hoping to find another large lot of vintage tins so I can make another set.

I got the inspiration for making these vintage style bird's nest table numbers from myself. 

That sounds strange doesn't it?!

Well, last spring I made some song birds in vintage tins  HERE





I sold about 5 of them, but saved two for me.  Well, about this time of year I start yearning for spring so I got one out to set on the buffett and it got my wheels turning.

I hope you all are staying warm!

Lots of Love,

Are you done with Summer!?

I'm done with summer...I mean D. O. N. E., done!  We have had a ridiculously hot summer and it's not even August yet.  Ugh.  I'm ready for Fall.  I love Fall...jeans and sweatshirts and my friends.  I love pumpkins, colored leafs and crisp nights.  I'm dreaming of hay rides and apple cider.

By the way, do you call if Fall or Autumn?  I think the word Autumn is so pretty but I always end up saying Fall.

I've started {slowly} getting my Fall line together.

Here is one of my new items {set of natural pumpkin table numbers for weddings}:





I'm going to be making some sets of 3 with wording on them for home decor as well.  I just love them.

Try to stay cool and enjoy the rest of your week!
