Love of Old...

So clearly I have a bit of a love affair with lace. I have always loved all things old, vintage and antique... I attribute that to my parent's toting me around to multiple antique stores from birth in addition to a special attention to vintage linens. As such, I have grown to love antique furniture, vintage fabric, and old made into new. I think it is the idea that everything has a story. The pillow case made by hand by my grandmother, the vintage lace, and most of all the smocked dress every Christmas and Easter handmade by my mother for my twin sister and me each and every year... so yes I love all things old and handmade.

Like many, as I embark on this new wedding planning endeavor I come to realize all the things that I have overlooked in the past. I am beginning to realize that I really do love to make things by hand. I cherish receiving such gifts. I do indeed love all things wedding related and making event design even more enjoyable! It is my latest labor of love and I look forward to exploring my creative, closet domestic diva, loving soul! Hooray for creativity :)
