The Blog Has Moved!

2011-04-05T17:07:00.000-07:00

Well,i finally took the leap and went over to wordpress for this blog.I'm also under a new name.It's "Sunlight and Lace".Hopefully I will stick to that,cause I have a terrible time picking names and sticking to them.How will I ever name my child in the future?lol.I imported all of the posts and comment from here to there.I will be leaving this blog up and checking on it every once in a while,as well.It's a bit hard leaving this blog,at least for now,but I felt like I needed a different name.And I like wordpress better in some ways.I choose the name Sunlight and Lace cause they are two of some of my favorite things.If you look at a lot of the things I feature,it has lace.I was also thinking of expanding what I blog about,too,and felt like the name would make it more,um,doable?
So head on over and check it out!
I'd love thoughts on it. :D

Wedding Dress Photos Pet Peeve

2011-04-05T02:04:00.001-07:00

One of the things that really bugs me when looking at some wedding dress photos(or any white dresses!),are the white backgrounds.It's fine with cream dresses,but with pure white,all of the detail gets lost,and I can barely tell what the dress is like.I get really happy when I see a wedding dress company that puts the white dresses on a contrasting color so it pops.
Anyone agree with me on this?

Joss Stone "L-O-V-E"

This has recently become one of my favorite songs.I first heard it on a Chanel Coco Mademoiselle TV ad with Keira Knightley quite a while back,and of course the song has stuck with me ever since.Enjoy!

I found this lovely silk gown with an old fashioned flair recently on etsy.I'm not much for strapless gowns,but I think this one is elegant and amazing in it's simpleness.(Though I'm sure it was anything but simple to sew!Gotta admire someone who can make a dress like this.)

I saw this wedding featured over at "Ruffled" blog,and loved this dress.
It's a Carolina Herrera,Garden Party/35806 from Preowned Wedding Dresses.
Here are three pictures from the blog post that I think shows it best.

This one was just sweet,and you get to see the back of it,and how it looks it in that kind of lighting.

You can see the detail of the fabric here.

This one makes the silhouette really pop.

Today's post is all about...turquoise..I love this color!And it's big for not only summer,but fall.

I was partly inspired by Anthropologie's silk dress.I think this would be lovely for bridesmaids,and you could even layer a cream lace long-sleeved shirt underneath.I really want this dress for myself.And it's on sale right now!

I made these.I think they would go well with the dress.

Tulle

2010-09-09T18:46:00.000-07:00

Tulle is such amazing stuff.Fun to work with,fun to wear,light floaty,and whimsical.It's the fabric most tutu's and veils are made with.Here are a few tulle items.I was just going to share the tulle hair clip and earrings I made,but then I thought there would be a pretty tulle skirt or dress that would go with them,as well.
Sure enough,there was.

Interview with Sarah of Idoweddingveils

2010-09-01T13:04:00.001-07:00

A while back,I stumbled upon Idoweddingveils on etsy,while searching for silk tulle wedding veils.I have talked with Sarah a few times,and she's a really nice lady.That's her picture above.So I asked her if I could feature her on my blog,and here is what she said.....

Q: Where are you from and a little, or a lot about yourself.

A: Well I have practically no accent and am terrified of the cold, so most people don’t believe me when I say that I’m Scottish. I’m originally from Edinburgh but I’ve been living in Sydney, Australia for the last four years. I came for a visit and a friend’s wedding only to meet my Irish husband-to-be two weeks after I landed. The rest I guess is history.

We live in a beautiful suburb of Sydney near the water, with our gorgeous dog Allie and we spend as much time together as we possibly can. I still work full time doing contract admin work in the city and hope to be working part time from home by the beginning of January, with a commitment to quitting my day job by the end of next year.

Q: Are you married? If you are, what was your wedding like? If not, what would be your dream wedding?

A: We were to be married on the 8th October this year, however due to a job loss in June we had to cancel last month. It’s been an incredibly emotional experience but one where we have been able to come out of knowing what’s important and knowing what a great team we are, together with our families.

When we do reschedule, our wedding will be filled with candlelight, laughter, music, mulled wine and lots and lots of dancing!

Q: What skills (any skills, not just crafty ones) do you wish you knew more about?

A: At the moment, I wish I had skills in the IT/Web design area. That and photography. It’s really hard when you’re starting out and you have to outsource a lot of this. It’s also very expensive.

My fiancé is a cabinet maker and I’m always amazed at how clever he is with timber. We restore old pieces of furniture together and I love learning more about his trade. I’m attracted to new skills almost every day and genuinely think I might just die if I couldn’t make things. I take evening classes in everything from corset making and pattern cutting to worm farming and French.

I want to know more about everything.

Mantilla Veil

Q: Tell us a little bit about the materials you use, silk tulle, lace, crystals and pearls. How do you find silk holds up and any advice for a bride considering wearing a silk veil?

A: I spent over nine months researching the industry, the fabrics available and the suppliers, until finally I had the best quality products to work with. I wanted to move away from the throwaway society we seem to find ourselves in and create long lasting products. It was incredibly important to me to source everything I use from countries that have good human rights, good working conditions and ethical trade. It’s amazing how many businesses don’t know the country of origin of a product they sell.

When I choose a fabric, whether it’s silk or nylon tulle or lace, it has to feel gorgeous to touch, it has to fall beautifully and it has to be comfortable to wear. There’s absolutely no point in choosing a soft silk gown only to have a stiff piece of tulle on your head.

I have two antique (1890 – 1920) silk veils and they are perfectly wearable and holding up very well. Silk is a natural fibre which makes it incredibly strong and of course better for the environment. It is however delicate tulle and just like its nylon counterpart, you have to be careful not to catch jewellery or a heel on it because it can tear.

A silk veil is an investment; it’s not just for one day. Looked after and stored properly, it will be worn by friends, family members and future generations. Silk is one of the most luxurious fabrics to wear and of course a wedding is the perfect opportunity to wear it.

Q: What are your favorite things about selling on Etsy?

A: Absolutely the community. Being surrounded by people with such a commitment to handmade and cottage industry is just brilliant, I love it!

Q: What is the item you love the best in your shop?

A: I have a cathedral length version of the chapel length silk tulle veil with Swarovski crystals and that has to be one of my favorites. There’s just nothing like the feel and look of silk tulle. I also love the lace edge fingertip veil; it’s just so pretty and light and a great modern option.

Q: This is my favorite item, and I love that picture.
Silk Tulle Chapel Length Veil With Swarovski Crystals

Is that from a real wedding, or a photo-shoot? I would love to know who did the photography, as I'm sure other people would, cause it's so beautiful.

A: Yes it’s from a real wedding and the photographer is a lady called Natalie Page: www.nataliepagephotography.com.au. She is just wonderful to work with and really knows how to capture the shot. She travels internationally for weddings and I can highly recommend her.

Q: Do you have a twitter, facebook, or blog?
A: I have a website www.idoweddingveils.com,a blog www.idoweddingveils.blogspot.com and a Facebook page. These have only recently been set up so they’re a bit of a working progress.

Q: Anything else you would like us to know?

A: I also offer brides a complete couture service which includes comprehensive consultations, pattern making, samples of tulle, colour swatches and sourcing of any specific pieces that a bride may want including vintage jewellery/fabric / lace to give you just a few examples. The veils listed in my shop are just examples of my work but each veil can be custom made to be as unique as the bride who’s choosing it.

As well as making veils, I will soon be offering clutch purses and accessories made from vintage, upcycled and repurposed silks.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any queries.

Shop Feature-Kelley of Drawworm

2010-08-25T13:30:00.000-07:00

Today's feature is about Kelly,an artist who has a shop on etsy.She draws custom portraits from photographs,and her bridal drawings are really lovely.I got to ask her a few questions,and she shared some photos from her wedding,as well.

(Kelley's self portrait)

Me:Tell us a little bit about you and your shop.
Kelley:In high school my mom gave me a book called "Draw Real People!" and my life was never the same. I especially liked drawing pictures for my friends and seeing their expressions when I gave them the drawings. Two years ago I opened up my Etsy shop, "drawworm," where I draw custom pencil portraits from people's photographs. My customers so far have been awesome, and working closely with them is a lot of fun.

Me:When did you first start drawing?
Kelley:There has never been a time in my life when I wasn't drawing. Seriously, I can't remember a time when I didn't feel a need to have some paper and pens nearby.

Me:Story behind your shop name?
Kelley:When I was young, my father saw me with my nose buried in a book and said, "You're such a bookworm!" My little brother, knowing my love for drawing, added, "Yeah, and you're a drawworm, too!"

Me:Are you married?What was your wedding like?Any favorite vendors?
Kelley:I got married two years ago in a quaint, white chapel. We had a small reception in the church courtyard, and were blessed with mild, sunny California weather. We had the caterer serve bubble milk tea at our reception. Our younger guests loved it, while our older guests (who had not yet been introduced to the recent bubble tea trend) were a little befuddled. Either way, people really remember the bubble tea at our wedding!

(Guests drinking bubble tea)

Me:I know this varies,but about how long does it take you to draw a Custom Bridal Portrait from Photo 9x12?
Kelley:I usually finish a 9x12 drawing within two weeks, but I can do it in one week, if needed.
(Custom Bridal Portrait from Photo - 9x12)

Me:One of your favorite drawings so far?
Kelley:My favorite drawing is this one:Angel Portrait

I like the "bokeh" effect in the background.

Me:One or two random facts about you? :)
Kelley:
1. I am left-handed
2. I hate the feel of egg cartons

Me:Do you have a twitter,facebook,or blog?
Kelley:I do have a blog, where you can see other drawings I'm working on, cool stuff I find on Etsy, and other artists I find inspiring.http://drawworm.blogspot.com

A Beautiful Song

2010-08-17T11:51:00.000-07:00

Ok,I have not dropped off the face of the earth.I went to Bend for a week and half,and there was no time for blogging.So I am back!I had a lot of fun there,visiting friends and family,but I'm glad to be home.I will have a blog post featuring some amazing headpieces up today or tomorrow.And there's 3 artists I have yet to feature.But for now,I leave you will this simply gorgeous song.I discovered Audrey Assad just last night while on a blog that said something about Brooke Fraser.I wonder why I didn't find her before,she's just amazing.SO glad I did now.I will just have to post the link,since there's no embed code.
Audrey Assad "Ought to Be"
There's lyrics on the video,and check out the rest of her songs!I've only heard one other so far.I thought this song would be perfect for somebody's wedding. :)

Blogging Schuldele

2010-07-25T15:53:00.000-07:00

I have been thinking of having a blogging schedule,for both my blogs.I just posted on my other blog,Life Is More Than Beads,a tentative schedule for both that one and this one,but I decided I would put this one directly on here.This will probably take me a while to get into the swing of things,and I may have to change it around a little,but here goes.

I think I will blog at least every other day,though I will try for every day after a while.So it could be any of these I do.Will try to have it scheduled for Monday this,then Tuesday,this,but it will be random till I figure it out.
A dress pick of the week.
Have a jewelry pick of the week.
A photo of the week,though we'll see how that goes,since you usually have to get permission.I do know of some wonderful wedding photographers,and I want to feature their work.So I may feature a photographer every once in a while,as well.Hopefully I'll get some interviews,too.:)
I will put a an outfit together,either for bridesmaid,brides,or any time.One a week.
Every other week or every two weeks do a feature/interview with an etsy bridal shop.
Every other week,or every two weeks,pick a color,(maybe two or three),and search out the prettiest items to feature for that color.
And any other random thing I love.

And if you any thoughts or ideas,please comment below.I love comments!

Beachy Accessories for Wedding or Anytime from "Five and Two" by Briana Rose

2010-07-07T12:08:00.001-07:00

Looking for some star-fish accessories for your beach themed wedding?Brianarose Accessories on etsy might be your perfect answer.And she doesn't just make star-fish jewelry and hair clips,but wooden heart earrings,flower hair clips,and much more,as well as selling a few vintage clothing finds.
ingrid - starfish hair clip

Doesn't look like it came out of a bridal magazine,like Get Married?

I found Briana's shop by looking through the etsy forums,and loved her shop so much,I wanted to do an interview,as well as a feature.She's also offering you a "buy one,get one half off".Send her a convo or email with the code "July".

~~~~~~~~~The Interview~~~~~~~~~~
Q: So,are you married?If you are,can you tell us a few things about your wedding.If you're not,describe your dream wedding.
A: Oh yes, oh yes! I just got married a month ago to my high school sweetheart. We've been together over five and a half years. Our wedding was perfect; a small, barbeque style event. We chose circus roses for the centerpieces and casual black suits with flip flops for the mens' attire. All very casual. It was outside in a ranch, and thankfully it was just barely over 90 degrees!

Q: Explain your creative process (how do you get ideas/inspiration for your craft,and how do you put them into action)
A: I really enjoy using items from nature. The theme of "five and two" is "beautiful, naturally." I think women should feel beautiful, naturally. Here's a little blurb on my Etsy profile:
You should feel beautiful, naturally. Because lets face it, you are beautiful. Women of all ages should embrace their natural features; be comfortable in your skin. You were created with all of those wonderful features on purpose. Those wrinkles you wish would disappear, those were meant to be there. The junk in the trunk you got goin’ on, was meant to be there. The freckles all over your face, were placed there on purpose. You’re beautiful, naturally.

Q: What item do you enjoy making most? And which has been the hardest to make so far, as well as which has been the easiest? What do you find has been your best-seller?
A: The item I enjoy most is also my best-seller and most difficult item to make; starfish accessories! I'm particularly proud of starfish accessories, as they are unlike any other. They go through a detailed cleaning, strengthening and assembling process. There are lots of steps to take in order to make the starfish accessories as strong and clean as possible, while preserving their natural beauty. They're really fun to make, I enjoy deciding the rhinestone designs the most! I think they add an extra sweet little sparkle.

Q: What are your favorite colors to design with. What are your favorite colors personally?
A: I love using the rainbow tinted Swarovski rhinestones, seen on this starfish pendant: http://www.etsy.com/listing/50313779/chloe-starfish-pendant. I think the colors reflect the true personality of the starfish. My favorite colors are black, white, turquoise and pink!

Q: What skills (any skills, not just crafty ones), do you wish you knew more about?
A: I wish I my guitar skills were better! I'm proud of my guitar knowledge, though. I taught myself by looking up chords online. I also wish I knew how to cook! I'm married now, so I'm working on it! I wish I knew more about photography, as well. Not just for my Etsy shop, but for personal projects.

Q: What goals do you have for your etsy shop, any new product ideas?
A: I hope to spread the word about my shop with great customer service. I want my clients to feel pampered! I'd also like to discover more of my target audience and learn how to reach them.

Q: A few random facts about yourself? :)
A: I just got my first full time job, I am a pastor's wife, I could eat pizza every day, and I can make the Star Trek symbol with my toes.

Isn't she awesome?

For the Bride that Loves All Shades of Aqua

2010-06-17T14:17:00.000-07:00

I love all colors of aqua!It's one of favorite colors,along with yellow,coral,cream...........and I could go on.And if you love it,it can be perfect for a wedding color or your "something blue",especially for a beach wedding.

This pair of aquamarine and pearl earrings that would go beautifully with any of these dresses.

Lace and Bead Necklaces

2010-05-28T21:52:00.000-07:00

I have started making necklaces with lace,since I have discovered that I really love lace!I found this really pretty cream alecon lace remnants,and started cutting them out for appliques.I am going to use some of them on a dress(with silk crepe,I think),but I started making necklaces with them and different beads,and I really like it.Since I have a limited amount of this particular lace with this pattern,I think I will only make 5 or so more.But I will be on the look out for more pretty lace to use in my necklaces.:)
The last one,
Lace Necklace with Robin's Blue and Eggplant Purple Beads,can be bought in my etsy shop,JennysTreasuresForU.
The rest can be put in my shop at request.I have one more,not shown here,with cream seed beads and olivine/olive green crystals.

A Pretty Silk Flower Accessory

2010-05-12T14:33:00.000-07:00

While browsing an etsy seller's feedback,I found this cute silk chiffon flower by Bloom and Co for $15.00
It measures 3-4 inches and is entirely hand stitched.Having cut up a bunch of tulle for my tulle earrings,I can certainly appreciate the work she put into these.She can also attach a barrette to it.
I think this would look really pretty as a bridal wreath with 3 of the big ones in back and small rosebud appliques in front and ribbon steamers in the back.And a veil,if you want.

Picture Inspiration

2010-05-04T13:38:00.000-07:00
