{Star of the Week: Star Quilt}

Hi loves!  Happy Tuesday to you.  I have been quite starry-eyed the last couple of days, so I thought the 'Star of the Week' should actually include stars!  Which made my 'Star of the Week' pick super easy (just like my 'Styling Tip' below...hehe).  Have a look-see at my star quilt...

I love all the colors and pattern of this quilt.  And I know most people would rent a quilt(s) for an engagement shoot, a picnic inspiration shoot, for additional seating on the grass, to cover hay bails or to cover a table...and while I love them used in all of these ways, I also love them used in another way!

Styling Tip:  Use a vintage quilt for a photo booth backdrop!  It's super duper easy and quick ;-)

And fabulous idea, no?

{Star of the Week: Step Stool}

Don't let this little guy fool you...

There are lots of darling ways in which to use this step stool!  So here are some styling tips for you ;-)

Styling Tips:  This step stool is perfect atop a table to use in a variety of ways.  First, with escort cards hanging from the steps.  Just use a push pin and some ribbon or twine so they hand down and voila ~ the perfect escort holder.  Second, to hold cupcakes or sweet treats on the dessert table looks cute.  Third, use on the welcome table to hold some fabulous details and flowers.  And fourth, use on the bar to hold the drink signs, or even glasses on the steps!

So many ways in which to use.  However, there are lots of other ways to use as well...not atop a table ;-)

{Star of the Week: Oil Lamps}

Well my 'Star of the Week' choice was a no brainer for me this week!  Why, you ask?  Well, all week long on my wedding blog, Luna and Chloe Weddings, I am recreating a table design using these lovelies...

So please pop on over to Luna and Chloe Weddings everyday this week to see the recreation process and just how lovely these look on a table!  The finished table will be posted on Friday...so at the very least check back then to see them in action ;-)

{Star of the Week: Yellow Stool}

Happy Monday loves!  I am starting off this week on a bright and sunny note ~ great way to start the week, no?  And I thought the perfect piece in my inventory to do just this would be my oh so fabulous yellow stool!  Here, have a look-see...

Not sure my pictures do it justice!  However, it is a fabulous accent piece ~ either next to another table with some flowers and details on top, in a seating arrangement, or even a place for people to sit while in a photo booth area...with a vintage quilt as a backdrop would be darling. 

Styling Tip:  This stool would also be the perfect place for the cake!

Definitely a piece that adds a little sunshine to my day ;-)  Here's to a fabulous week my dears!

{Star of the Week: White Soda Crate}

Happy Friday loves!  I am tickled that it is finally Friday, as my Great Aunt Millie (who is 86) and I plan to go see a matinee today ~ Midnight in Paris ;-)  It's been quite a while since the last time we went to the movies...granted every Wednesday night is still girls night, but we haven't gone to the movies in too long!

Believe it or not I have a point here with all this movie talk ~  a couple of weeks ago I did a post about using a soda crate as a popcorn holder...see where I am going with this?  Yes, I plan on getting popcorn at the movies, which of course made me think of this crate...which in turn is why it's my 'Star of the Week'.  Whew, you still following me?  Eeks, I hope so ;-)  Anyway, have a look-see at my lovely white soda crate...

There are SO many ways, beyond a popcorn holder, in which you can use this crate.  I adore it standing up and used as a cubby, and even flipped with its bottom up (hehe) and used as a cake stand!  And I just have to tell you that the crate is perfect...not slanted like it looks in the picture ~ it's the ground that has a slight slope here ;-)

Styling Tip:  You could also use this crate to hold cocktails!  Just fit your glass in a square and have your servers serve them up! 

Cheers to a fabulous weekend!  See you back here on Monday...hopefully with some new finds that I can share with you.

{Star of the Week: Mint Crates}

I am excited that today is Tuesday!  Why do you ask?  Well, my cousin and her hubby leave for New York early this morning ~ which means I get to puppy sit Gus!  There is just something about a puppy that is so fabulous, no?  I just might have to share a picture of him and all his adorableness.  Oh, and I hear he is a good cuddler too!

Anyhoo, enough puppy talk and on to the 'Star of the Week' this week ~ mint crates!  I have two of these lovelies, as you can see...

And while they are very similar on the outside, they are different on the inside.  However, they are the most perfect shade of mint green EVER!  Yet, I do have to tell you that these crates are solid and quite heavy.  I was surprised at how heavy they were when I had to lug them all the way to the car.

Goodness, there are so many ways to use and style these pretties, that I don't even know where to start...as I have bunches of ideas swirling around in my head!  And I am sure you too could think of a handful of ways in which to use as well.  And because they are so versatile and such a fabulous color ~ they were an easy pick for the 'Star of the Week' this week.

{Star of the Week: Glass Corn Holder Trays}

Okay, I know what you are probably thinking ~ what's so special about corn holder trays?  Well if you think about the size of corn, then you can start to see how these little trays could be so fabulous to be the 'Star of the Week'...

They are the perfect size to hold macarons!  Also, cake pops, cookies, mini cupcakes, etc... not to mention a handful of other useful ways to use that are non-dessert related ;-)  Tell me loves, what would you use them for?

{Star of the Week: Camping Table & Chairs}

With Memorial Day this weekend, and a handful of people I know going camping ~ I thought that this darling metal camping table and chairs was the perfect choice for the 'Star of the Week' this week.  Just have a look-see at the chippy, rusted green paint on the table...oh and the chairs have a red paint that is peeking through...

Made of metal, all pieces fold for easy portability...making it the perfect table and chair combo for photo shoots ~ engagement, day after, styled, anniversary, etc...  A couple ideas that pop into my head for a photo shoot are a woodsy romantic dinner table for two under the stars, a picnic in the park, a fun campfire game themed photo shoot...or anything else you can think up!

Styling Tip:  The table and chairs would be a darling bride and groom table for a woodsy, rustic wedding ~ so many ways to style...from red and white checks to dreamy vintage linens, moss, mushrooms, bark and branches.  And the table would be perfect for a cake and dessert table!  Can't you picture a lovely cake on a wood round?  Perfect, no?

Oh, the possibilities ;-)

{Star of the Week: Parlor Chair}

I can't tell you how much I am loving this parlor chair this week!  I was so tickled when I found a set of 6 all with white chippy paint.  I heart chippy paint!  And speaking of hearts, isn't it darling...

Two of these would be perfect for the bride and groom chairs, no? 

Styling Tip:  If using for the bride and groom chairs, I think they would look fabulous with Mr. and Mrs. hanging inside the heart! 

Oh, and with a set of 6 they would also be perfect to use for a photo shoot around a table.  So many ways to use ~ which definitely makes them the 'Star of the Week'!
