Recent Custom Work

I thought I would post a few pictures of 

recent custom work we have done.

I don't blog often as I find it quicker and easier

to pop a photo up on Facebook or Instagram.

But for those of you not on all the 

social media outlets, I will share some photos here ;)

Please join us over on Instagram and Facebook

Hand-Stamped Bridal Place Settings

We are pleased to let you know that we are now offering

our six piece bridal place setting as a 

whimsical mismatched set,

in addition to our popular heirloom set.

We come across such a variety of beautiful

patterns but often only a few matching.

We love the shabby-chic feel of combining patterns. 

The perfect touch of vintage for any wedding.

 Something old perhaps?

The patterns pictured in the photos above include

'Plume' 1935, 'Park Lane' 1936, 'Cotillion' 1937, 

'Ambassador' 1919, 'Coronation' 1936, 'Lovelace' 1936,

'Enchantress' 1937, 'Old English' & 'Revelation' 1953.

 

Airloom Art Pt. 2

As promised in the previous post,

here are three more styles of our 'Airloom Art'.

I love the idea of using the piece pictured above, 

in a nursery or a pretty powder room.

When the light hits the crystals, it really sparkles.

 

The clapper of this last windchime is made from the bottom of a wine goblet. The windchime itself is a chafing dish and allows space for flowers to be laid in the top. 

This piece is quite gorgeous as unique wedding décor.

Which piece is your favorite?

Airloom Art

We are very pleased to share with you

photos of our first batch of 'Airloom Art'.

 

These wind-chimes had been on our 'to-do' list 

for awhile now, and we love how our first collection turned out.

We created each piece using a combination of silver-plate hollow-ware, vintage chandelier crystals, Swarovski crystals and even a little bit of gemstones and copper.

They are all made by hand and one of a kind.

In celebration we held a little photo-shoot in the backyard.

We used a great collection of vintage linens that my mother-in-law had given me to create a romantic tee-pee setting. While we showcased the hanging art outdoors, they certainly look captivating indoors as well.

 

 

We will share our other three styles in the next post. 

Thank you for stopping by! And yes they are available for purchase.

Snail Mail

Inspired by recent reproductions of antique 

sterling letter openers, and episodes of 'Downton Abbey'

we present our re-envisioned '...and then again' vintage letter opener, with an added touch of whimsy.

 These vintage silver plate knives are unique with their 'Snail Mail' charm and Swarovski crystal. The above photo was influenced by an episode of 'Downton Abbey' where Carson presents Lord Grantham with a letter and opener on a silver tray. Time to make opening your mail, a special event.

 We created a limited collection of these letter openers. 

A small amount will be delivered this week along with some stamped Father's Day spoons, to our retailers in Vancouver, New Westminster and Tsawwassen.

As we near the end of the school year, these make fantastic gifts for grads and teachers.

Plus they look great on display with your favorite stationery.

Creating a Canvas

So it is proving more challenging than I thought to be

posting more regularly on here. 

I am in the habit of loading pics more often via 

Facebook and Instagram.

Oh well, I am here now so here we go.

 

We are finally going to tackle the home office in May!

I have moved both boys into one bedroom and will be transforming the other bedroom into an organized, inspirational space. 

My dining room has been overrun for far too long!

We have narrowed it down to the paint colors above. 

I am leaning towards the Mauve Morning on the right as the room is north-facing and reads cooler.

The room is going to be feminine with a touch of glam. 

White painted antique cabinets, a vintage farm table as a desk, a vintage crystal chandelier and of course lots of vintage silver.

Radiant Orchid

We recently needed a re-stock of our letterpress 

business cards.

We thought we would have some fun 

and change up the color a little bit. 

Erin at Sunlit Letterpress was happy to accommodate our request.
