Etsy Shops: Vintage Lace Inspiration

Sofia Sayer, , , , Leave a comment

I am thinking about creating a vintage lace inspired wedding invitation.  I have been collecting lace for a long time now, my grandmother is always finding something to give to me.  These Etsy Shop owners have some awesome inspiration for using vintage lace in every day items:

Tree Inspiration, Etsy Artists: for weddings or parties

Sofia Sayer, , , , , , , Leave a comment

I have always been attracted to trees as a source of inspiration in my art.  Trees can be a great theme for your wedding or party.  They represent life:  sheltering us from the sun, producing oxygen, create homes, paper products, etc.  And of course they are beautiful to look at.  There are an estimated 100,000 species of trees, and the oldest tree is approximately 4,844 years old (the Great Basin Bristlecone Pine).
