Modern Rustic Housewares.

Friday, August 28th, 2009 | Add a Comment

I’m so loving these housewares over at Shoestring Home. There is something rustic about them, but they have such a modern look and feel too. Everything is so beautiful, elegant, well designed and well crafted! I must say that I can see those Petite Shell Mirrors in my *future* house. Kind of reminds me of these plates on the wall that I posted a few weeks ago. The husband and I are a huge beach lover and I’m thinking of incorporating a lot of shells and beach colors for our yet-to-be house.

Somehow those lovely things remind me that Fall season is almost here. In Texas, we’ll still be under the hot summer sun probably until the end of September.

Anyways, on another note, Shoestring Home is having a giveaway for a chance to win a cute Boogaloo from Blabla. Me wants!

Modern, Exotic Wedding in California

I know summer is almost over but I don’t want summer to leave just yet. My knees become weak when I see yellow, orange, citrus green, and chocolate brown in a color palette. This particular wedding that happened right before the summer season began this year, makes me smile mainly because of the happy summer-y colors and the great sense of style that the bride has. I love, love, love her wedding dress and her bouquet. Guess what, she did her own bouquet! She was her own florist on her wedding. Not only unique and exotic looking, the bouquet has great, bright, happy colors that I adore.

The event was coordinated by Red Velvet Occasions. The beautiful photography was done by Mark Brooke. More beautiful detail captured by Mark on this wedding…
