Summer Branches & Blooms~

More Love~ilies from Martha Stewart & Co. Isn't this just so sweet? The cocoa background is what really sets this off!~ I love it!

Another from Martha & team!~ Create a backdrop that's not only beautiful & unique, but that smells so divine! Just tape fresh flowers vertically on the wall & viola! Best to use flowers that hold up out of water like peonies, carnations, lilies, & orchids. Succulents would be great as well and last for days without water!

The possibilities for unique ideas for your celebration are endless! Open your imagination & run with it!

Romantic White on White

This is a bouquet I made for a surprise keepsake for a couple my son is working with as he serves a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. They are getting married on Friday and baptized on Saturday. We are so excited for them!
The white on white tones accentuate the vintage, romantic look of these handmade flowers. So scrumptious! I wish I was a professional photographer too, but alas, that's still not my forte so you'll have to bear with these pics!

This is the bout I made to go with it. Very chic!

DIY Vintage blooms!

I'm sooooo excited! So here's my first attempt and I have to say, I haven't been more excited about anything for a while! Okay, so maybe I need a life :) but seriously, these were so fun to make and, if I can say so myself, turned out pretty darn COOL! I think another reason I got so excited was, I just hadn't felt too happy about using silk flowers for the bouquet for a wedding coming up as the bride wants a truly vintage feel and I just hadn't come across anything that I felt would fit the bill. But then, I came across these beauties and my prayers were answered! So as promised in the previous post here are my results!~

Burning the edges was the funnest part!~ So then I just had to go fabric shopping! Hmmm.... Stay tuned to see what I came up with!
