Weddings

Posted on March 25, 2013 | Leave a comment

Lately, I’ve had a few wedding orders for a variety of projects. They have been super fun! I LOVE working with brides! So, I thought it was time for a post of some of those projects.

First off the flowers.My latest bride wanted her groom to be special so he gets a vintage music boutonniere and the groomsmen get vintage book boutonnieres.The moms and grandmas get these pretty brooch corsages.Another wedding had these yummy yellow flowers.

I am in love with the idea of these hangers. This bride wants her photo of the dresses hanging to be special. It also makes a great gift for the bridesmaids.How about a vintage guest book?Then there the  decorations. These were at my son’s wedding so they were extra special to make.I’ve been so inspired I think I may try my hand at more. Nothing is more special than a wedding. Well, maybe the babies coming. Hmmmm. A whole new project set to think about.

Repurposing Old Windows

Posted on February 18, 2013 | Leave a comment

There’s something special about old windows. They have such character and are a great starting point for a project. Here’s a few of the ones I’ve repurposed.Even if the glass is broken they are great to use. I make lots of chalk boards with them.When they are sectioned you can do some fun stuff.And if you can’t decide, do both!I love doing special orders for weddings!The Holidays are a great time to use old windows!So you’ll see me jumping for joy whenever I run across some great old windows on the curb. Broken glass, old chalking, rusty nails – it all just makes them more interesting!

Before I post more about my new studio, I wanted to share some photos of last year’s Fall Market at Simply Bungalow. It is coming up fast and this year they will have over 20 vendors in the parking lot. If you live in Lincoln or Omaha you won’t want to miss it, so mark you calendar for Saturday, September 22nd. You can shop inside and out from 10-4.

Bread pan tote

I love all the things that MamieJanes does on her blog. She is so creative. When I saw this I had to make my own. It was really simple too. I just punched some holes, place the items together and wired it. Just love it!
