A Really, Really Good Find!!!

Hi!
I wanted to have a post just highlighting a particular piece of art that I think is incredibly warm and wonderful! 
Truly, it is a work of art. 
At Marysia and Matt's wedding, Marysia's Mother, Leslie,  ordered this beautiful, personalized mini-quilt as a special gift for the Bride and Groom! Their entire wedding was made from the heart with Leslie making all the Bridesmaid's dresses, her own gown (and it was beautiful blue lace!!), helping with the bunting and the centerpieces. So, a gift like this was over the top spectacular for me!!
The mini-quilt was displayed on our Vienna Gates with bunting as the guests entered the property from their Church wedding.


For those of us that sew or that used to sew, or if you are learning how to sew or just enjoy the idea of sewing, this is really something beautiful!
The artist, Jamie Fingal, made this spectacular piece!! She added the fabric that Leslie had used on the bunting. It not only made the piece extra special but the details are extraordinary. 

Are you looking for a really, really special gift?

What a wonderful keepsake that is just plain old FUN!!
This is my "Really, Really Good Find!"

Hi!
Hillary just let me know that her photos were choosen for the stylemepretty blog! We had a blast planning her wedding with all her special vintage touches. I added old buttons to ribbons and other special touches, her Dad made a wonderful moon-stool for the backdrop of the photos, her Mom made the beautiful cake topper and Hillary's vision all came together!
I love vintage and the touch of home arts!!!

It's Planting time!!


Hi!

We're so lucky to live in California where the weather is so beautiful most of the time!! It's a gorgeous day today so I thought it would be a perfect time to add more flowers to the Estate during this dorment time of year.

Since the roses are sleeping and waiting for spring, I thought I'd plant some happy pink and yellow daisies to make the Jones Victorian Estate smile all the more! But that's not all.... Our delivery truck was filled with Primroses, Cyclamens, Begonias and more daisies to welcome spring. Flowers, Flowers, Flowers, I love it!!

I hope you have an opportunity to get outside today. I'll be Wedding planning in the beautiful sunshine and smiling the whole time.

Enjoy! Love,
Michelle

Oh, happy day! Kelly and Joey's Vintage Wedding!


Oh, happy day!

Although the morning began with ominous clouds threatening with rain, thunder, and lightning, a soft breeze guided the thunderclouds away creating a blessed and beautiful sunny day at the Jones Victorian for Kelly and Joey known to friends and family as "Jelly."


When guests arrived, they were directed to the Guest book where an ensemble of vintage items and heirlooms welcomed them. A classic typewriter held a note inviting guests to write words of wisdom and well wishes for the couple on postcards.


For the table decor, Kelly and a good friend designed each table with a vintage mirror, croqueted doily, picture framed chalk board, green and clear bottles, and a mini lavender bouquet. To finish the tables, ivory napkins were tied with raffia and knotted, then topped with a sprig of lavender. The end result: fresh, creative, and beautiful!



Above, Kelly printed the bridal party information on the back of her petite chalkboards to give the centerpieces details from every angle! Below, mason
jars and fresh flowers decorate the sweetheart table atop a green printed overlay.



The wedding. On the entry gates to the wedding, a sign mirrored the design for the ceremony area with a sweet mason jar filled with roses, hydrangea and lavender sweet peas. Michelle and Kelly designed the ceremony area with clear mason jars that hung from chairs on the aisle as well as from picture frames on the arch creating a refreshing design!







Congratulations Kelly and Joey! We wish you a future as bright and beautiful as your wedding day!

Love,
Michelle and Erica
