From small acorns...

My favourite season. Autumn. 
There's so much to love about this time of the year, the colours, the smells, the sights. Like a putting to bed of the world, tucking it in nice and snug for the cold winter months ahead. 

I've always been a fan or oranges, golds and velvety reds so perhaps that's why I am happiest at this time of year. I love to style Autumnal scenes and am looking forward to doing another photo shoot this autumn with Sarah Riley, Shirley Dee and all. 

I bought some lovely wooden and gold acorns today and decided to do a couple of " mock up wedding sets" around an autumnal, woodland scene... Hope you like the pics and props I used...

Inspiration: Pinterest!, Acorns, gourds, orange satin, red berries, poppies, country checks and tweeds, trees, leaves, bark texture, toffee apples, carnival glass, leather, wooden crates, burlap...

Love these place name ideas for autumnal weddings...




Also going to get some fabric leaves that people can 
"leaf" a message on in a gold pen :-) 
and create some sort of guest book idea from them.

...and while we're on the subject of leaves just look at this lovely, simple but so effective centrepiece...
That would look fab with a light underneath it.

Also, going to attempt to make these amazing roses from leaves...

But for now, here is my take on a vintage autumnal wedding...





On the look out now for country tweeds, pictures of stags heads and other country bits n bobs to add. I've also made a buttonhole from an used bullet cartridge from clay pigeon shooting!

Rosenations - cross between roses and carnations...

I was asked to make a wedding posy for a bride who suffers dreadfully with hayfever. She is getting married in May and wants something quite simple.
She's not really into bling - so the heirloom vintage brooch posies I make are out of the question, so I have been busy making several differenct kinds of flowers from paper and fabric to see what I come up with...
 
Paper roses and carnations - I might put these together and call them "Rosenations"!
Here are some I've been making and am going to add buttons and beads to and assemble into a posy...
 

 
I'll post a picture of the posy and a tutorial on how to make your own when I'm done x
