Board#130: Feather & Twine

Now there's not too many occasions where one could get away with wearing a pheasant feather head piece with a fur vest and underwear but hey it certainly makes for a pretty photo right? Please don't take this as literal wedding inspiration... think you may get a few funny looks walking up the aisle in this getup!! Although I also think you'd also get some admiring looks if you can pull off wearing a striking veil with said feathers... they're such a pretty accessory. On your head, on the cake, on the tables... so many uses for them! What do you think... would you incorporate feathers into your day?

Board #127: Feathers & Lace

Here we are at Monday morning again!! Did you have a nice weekend? Yesterday was a gorgeous warm autumn day here, which was lovely after all the rain we've had lately. Perfect chance to get out in the garden and tidy it up for winter. It actually got really hot out there. Wouldn't this colour scheme be perfect for a cozy winter wedding? I just love that flower arrangement with the feathers and the subtle touch of red in it. It seems to me like it would take pride of place in a hunting lodge... which I think would make for the most amazing winter wedding venue, imagine the fun you could have with that 'theme'. Here's hoping your week is off to a good, productive start!

Feather Bouquets

A bouquet with a difference!! I recently stumbled across Emplume, who make these fabulous unique feather bouquets, perfect if you're looking for something with a point of difference - not to mention it will last way beyond the wedding day. I love the white one, it looks so soft and inviting! Best of all they ship them anywhere in the world so no one need miss out. What do we think?
