#163 Engagement Ring Fun

A fortune cookie proposal? Brilliant!
If you didn't want to use a real cookie you could use a silver fortune cookie hinged keepsake box such as the one pictured & have the ring inside...

 

or even a card holder with a ' will you marry me' fortune (or obviously a more personalised option) & be ready with ring in hand OR even one of those ridiculously gorgeous porcelain fortune cookies I featured a little while ago here...

 

That would be so incredibly cute!

These rings are nice to look at?

 

So are these ring boxes from stout woodworks & eskae jeweller?
That hickory box especially...
 

And just for fun...



Hope your week has begun wonderfully!

#147 Wooden Stationary

I love paper goods. I handmade all our save the dates, invites, place cards, menus & programs, buying the supplies for these was beyond exciting for me.

You know what I love more than paper though? Wood.
I found these INCREDIBLE invites from Oslo Press halfway through the process of making ours & was absolutely blown away. I seriously considered abandoning the project & re-jigging the budget to have a little slice of this heaven...

         

Heaven is an understatement. Swoon after swoon after swoon...

   

Table numbers, two stunning custom designs, place cards, escort cards & favour tags... You can order just about anything you can think of from Oslo Press.
I am still suffering from a potentially fatal case of love. It's very serious. Surely there is something I can custom order to cure this ailment...

#140 Zinc Place Cards, Initials & Favours

I love zinc as wedding decor, it's just beautiful. Perfect for so many different atmosphere's too?
Have a look at these offerings from my sparrow

I love these as table numbers...

 

These as bride & groom initial decor or even cake toppers...

 

If your budget allowed they would also make fantastic favours (a guests first initial) that would be gorgeous & also gender neutral!

And imagine these zinc bird tags doubling as place finders & favours, with your guests name written on them in chalk that they can later use as decor in their home, as an addition to their 'festive' decorations, or even as a bookmark? You could also use them as the table marker itself again using chalk to write the number.



These place cards from farmhouse wares are the ones that started my zinc love affair...



Perfect for a desert buffet as well!

#137 Dreamy Wedding w/ Bottle Place 'Cards'

The first time I saw this photo my heart skipped a beat.
I actually have it saved to my laptop, every now & then I have a peek just to put some extra lovely in my day.
It's the little things right?!

It's actually THE most awesome escort card set up. Isn't it such an incredibly stunning idea?!

 

It's not just the escort cards though, the whole wedding of S+D via Duet Weddings, with photography by Max Wanger, is just delicious. It is so much of what I wanted, outdoors, rustic, intimate & gorgeous...

 

Don't you wish you were there?
Dreamy.
