Winter White Centerpieces

When deciding on centerpieces for a winter wedding or event, try all-white arrangements that capture the look and feel of the season. Use multiple white floral varieties in each centerpiece for a more eclectic look, or keep things simple by using one type of white flower. Incorporate small branches or pine cones to complete this wintery look.

Paper Wedding Centerpieces

What better way to hang onto the memory of your wedding day then to create centerpieces and bouquets made of paper? Believe it or not paper flowers can look just as beautiful as fresh flowers, and the best part is they will never wilt.

Use colored paper to coordinate with your wedding color scheme. Add a bit of sparkle by placing a gem, pearl, or bead in the center of each flower. Go for a more eclectic look by making your flowers with newspaper, patterned paper, or the pages of an old book. Send them home with guests afterwards to re-use as unique home decor that will last far beyond your wedding day!

White Wedding Cakes

In my opinion, less is usually more. So when selecting your wedding cake consider opting for all white. Add interest through textures, flowers, and other small details. Fresh flowers are one of the easiest ways to turn a simple white cake into a jaw-dropping masterpiece. Nature provides beauty that can't be recreated!

Fun Photo Framing

Personal photos are a great, easy way to make a space your own. I love to have photos around, and I'm constantly searching for ways to add a bit of originality to them without spending a ton of money. Purchasing a simple inexpensive frame, and replacing its matting is a great way to personalize your photo collection. Mat your photos with a map, old book page, or newspaper cutting for a classic, vintage look. Choose a map that relates to the photo for an extra personal touch. Or for a more feminine feel, create a mat that's covered in lace (so pretty!).

For a simpler style, choose matting in a solid color that coordinates with the photo. Using burlap is a great way to incorporate texture through a single color. Mix and match different types of matting within a collection of frames for a unique, eclectic look. Or keep it subtle by matting all of your frames with the same color or material.

Gather your matting materials from a craft store, or swing by a local second-hand shop for one of a kind items - you never know what you'll come across!
