A sneak peak...Vineyard Soiree

What a lovely group of ladies I was able to work with last month
that created this gorgeous 30th Birthday Soiree.
It was a French-inspired gathering set at a beautiful vineyard.

I saw the space in person when I picked up all of
our vintage rentals at the Kelley & Young Winery. Their website
doesn't do the space justice…They're in the process
of building a barn that will be the tasting room & potentially a great space for more farm-to-table gatherings.

Here's a little snapshot I took of the winery in Alexander Valley as I was heading back home to the foothills. Just gorgeous!


I feel fortunate to be meeting so many super
creative, inspiring & fabulous ladies via Instagram. It surprises me what a cool community it has become.
One of these ladies is Claudine, of Cooking with Claudine.
She is the most adorable gal ever! And I'm thrilled that we connected initially via Instagram, but were able to connect (in the REAL world) on my trip to the Bay Area &
chat over a glass of wine.

Well she is one of the masterminds behind this gorgeous
Birthday Soiree for her girlfriends 30th birthday.
Luckily she brought me on board to help her create the
"French-inspired gathering on a Vineyard"


What an amazing sign & sentiment to start the party off!
Gorgeous writing on our Gold Framed Chalkboard
(& all the calligraphy & paper details for the day)
by Narine of Sweet & Crafty.


Make a Wish Sarah!


The gorgeous table was designed & styled by Cooking with Claudine
& Melanie of Head Over Heals with Melanie. It includes our
Cut-glass & Hobnail Votive Holders & florals by MacKensey of Poppy Stone Design.


As well as our Kathryn Chair for Sarah's special spot
at the table. We're thrilled that it completed the
French-inspired theme perfectly.


And how gorgeous does everything look lit by our Votive Holders?
Also shown are our Assorted Picture Frames,
Gold Framed Chalkboard, Wine Box, Cut-glass Compote &


Tasty Rosemary Cashew treats by Claudine piled in our
Wood Root Bowl as favors for all the guests with sweet
Merci tags by Sweet & Crafty.


How fabulous does this gathering look?
A perfect evening at the Kelley & Young Winery.
How nice to have such amazing friends to create something so special to celebrate a big birthday!

Happy Birthday Sarah!

We hope your day was as amazing as it looks in the pictures.

Highlighting Creative Women ~ Vendor #2: ByMadelineTrait

BY MADELINE TRAIT
design for life's celebrations

So, I met the lovely Madeline last fall at the
Flax DIY Wedding Fair (read all about it here) &
ran into her again at the LOVE/MAKE Wedding Fair this April
(read about that fun collaboration here). She is a
super creative design star! She started out in the
architecture & interior design world, but allowed her creative
side to take hold & she launched ByMadelineTrait back in 2009
(read a little more about that here).

She creates super fun & whimsical cake toppers…
LOVE!


See my previous post all about
unique cake toppers for more inspiration here.

All her work starts with her amazing illustrations. Did I mention how creative she is?!? Then the cake toppers are laser cut on thin plywood & she finishes them by hand painting them.
They are so gorgeous & make a statement at any celebration.


They're rustic & fancy all in one sweet little package.
One of my current favorites from her is the Sailing Ships
with the perfect amount of sparkle. Great for a going away party or a nautical-themed party. Just fabulous!

And now to the GIVEAWAY we're hosting…
You could be the winner of this gorgeous Butterfly Cake Topper.
Use it for your bridal shower & then re-use for your daughters birthday. Yes! It's that fantastic!


Find all of the details for the Giveaway here.

Highlighting Creative Women ~ Vendor #1: the poetry store

the poetry store
a typewriter. a poet. a vision.

What a cool business!?!


Silvi of the poetry store can be a part of your

{engagement party}
{bridal shower}
{wedding}
{anniversary party}
{birthday party}

She'll set up the cutest vintage typewriter
& a desk vignette. 


You pick out a unique piece of paper
(mine was stamped with pink chair silhouettes ~ so cute),
tell her what you want the poem to be about
(mine was Tin Roof Farmhouse {VINTAGE RENTALS}),
give her a few key words & then she starts typing away…



And then you have a fabulous little poem…

like
rain falling
on a tin roof
that makes music
of a downpour
so too life
makes music
as you move toward
making the days
fill with
your dreams
waking, building
white farmhouses
and you.

Your own little message in a bottle.


Such a great personal touch for any special event.
The perfect "favor" for your friends to take with them.
