Skiing Tomorrow

So, one of my favorite things to do, besides crafting and making things, is SKIING!! I'm going on a little adventure tomorrow to Snowshoe mountain which is pretty close to home for maybe one of my last days of skiing this season.. :( so sad..I know. I've attached some pictures of past skiing trips to Snowshoe.

Past Weddings and Photo Shoots

I was recently looking back on past feedback in my etsy store and wanted to share these awesome wedding and photo shoot pictures featuring some of my work.

The lovely, Alyssa, had a shabby chic wedding and is holding the bouquet and wearing the hair piece I designed for her.

The fabulous, Elle R Jae Events, had a photo shoot and used a couple of my boutonnieres. Click HERE for their website.

Renee looking beautiful with her cream peacock bouquet in hand! I love this black and white photo...how sweet!

Elizabeth had a vintage inspired "art nouvea" wedding. This is the bouquet I designed for her with paper poppies, white peacock feathers, and crystals. What a gorgeous pic!

Tis' the Season!

I just wanted to share a few pictures of my Christmas tree with you. I decided to do a vintage inspired tree with antique mercury glass ornaments, a vintage tree topper, ornaments made with german scraps, Dresden foil and old music sheets, and a vintage scarf around the base.

The german scrap ornaments came from this lovely shop... 32 North Supplies, and the mercury glass ornaments came from here.... Silver Lining

Look at my vintage brass deer candle holder on the right!

Vintage Find

I recently found this old metal flower wall hanging at an antique mall. I think it came out of an old Spiegel catalog and was an ugly yellow color so I slapped on a glossy bright rosy pink spray paint. I love the way it turned out, and it looks awesome on my dusty blue wall. It's amazing what paint can do. Wish I had a before picture to show!!

Fashion Show

After watching project runway religiously this season, I got to go to a fashion show at the Greenbrier Friday night. Designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka showed off amazing dresses from their new Spring 2011 collection. Badgley Mischka is known for their glamourous and luxurious details and have been named "Top 10 American Designers" by Vogue. Their style is much like hollywood glamour of the 1940s. It truly was a spectacular show and the dresses were amazing. You can see alot of the dresses on their website here under the spring 2011 collection
