A Button Themed Bridal Shower

So it's wedding season and once again we have quite a few weddings to attend this year and along with weddings come bridal showers. We are helping a few people plan theirs and so I'm browsing through Wedding Chicks and check out the loveliness that ensues which was brilliantly shot by the talented Jessica Claire. EEK! It seriously is all about the details.


This button garland makes me so happy. I'm wondering what else we can hang on string!


Check out the rest of the process from the adorable Ruche dresses to the TJ Maxx dishes that were only $4 a piece!

Vintage Typewriter

I remember when I was planning my wedding... I was in search of a vintage typewriter to use for my wedding and to keep for my house. These photos make me want to go back on that search!

Unique Vintage Wedding Invite

The couple designed their vintage invite with items that looked like they could be found in your grandmother's old attic. I really love the letter on the back that is from a son to his mother informing her that he's met the love of his life.


The envelopes and invites were dyed these in tea, old, vintage stamps from a local stamp collector, and postmarked them with a craft stamp they edited themselves by tearing out the rubber. Also included was a vintage looking photobooth picture (also dyed in tea) and old 45s.

Thanks to Offbeat Bride for sharing!

Vintage Shopping from "Little Women"

Vintage looking jewelery from etsy seller japonicas features her "Little Women" line. The two apples in halves are so fun! The umbrella could be a perfect gift for any kind of shower...catch my drift? :)

Furniture Finds in Healdsburg

This past weekend, a group of our friends enjoyed the weekend up in Sonoma, CA for a mini-getaway and of course, some wine tasting. We ventured out into a small town called Healdsburg that was full of cute stores and lots and lots of wine tasting rooms.

Wendy from dozi and I immediately took to the store 14Feet and were drooling over every other piece.

14feet. specializes in one-of-a-kind vintage industrial and mid-century pieces. brought back to a modern sensibility, the pieces work equally well in both classic and modern homes.

Some of our faves included:

This was one of my favorites. I loved the drawers on the side and the little orange stools that sat around it. The orange really gives it some depth. I don't know if it was a total set, but it seemed to go well together.

From danish designers at droog...a wine country doorbell!

This desk is amazing. Vintage circa 1940's metal tambour top executive desk with brass details. Very rare in steel and extremely heavy.

If my house had the capacity to fit all this beautiful furniture, 14feet would be empty in a heartbeat.
