This is such a special and unique wedding suite I worked on with sweet bride Erin last summer.  We drew inspiration from their wedding venue, located in the Hill Country just outside of Austin and really wanted the invitation to reflect it’s casual elegance and rustic chic style.  Weathered-wood, aged tin, stained concrete floors and amazing Hill Country views…believe me, Vista West Ranch is simply.breathtaking.

My favorite part of this invitation? The envelope liners, which are original pages from one of my vintage books titled “The History of Texas.”  It’s all in the details when it comes to making a wedding invitation fresh and unique and this suite…truly one of a kind.

Every time I go shopping I am always snapping photos for friends and clients who have asked me to be on the look out for unique finds….whether it be burlap table cloths, vintage china, bridesmaid gifts, floral handkerchiefs or antique wall art. I have about 600 images on my i-phone of beautiful, vintage pretties I’ve found while treasure hunting. Because I can’t bare to delete them, I thought I would start sharing them. Hopefully you will find inspiration and enjoy some of my favorite shopping spots too.

Saturday, I made a visit to Alston’s Old Home Place, located in the Garland’s downtown square. Alston’s is definitely one of my “go-to” favorites. The prices are fair and affordable so I rarely walk away empty handed. Here are some photos I took while purusing through his lovely store and the items I just couldn’t leave without.
