Wheat & Mint | Wedding INSPIRATION


Maybe it’s the fall weather or that harvest season is almost here, because I can’t stop thinking about using Wheat at a wedding. I love the feather like look of it & with Mint as an accent, its radiant to my eye. It’s an untamed & fresh idea.
Here are some images I pulled together for my inspiration of a
Wheat & Mint Wedding


Top Square: handcarved wheat invitation via Engraved Plus , brides wheat bouquet & boutonniere by Love & Lavender  , wheat centerpiece via Grise Photography  , mint striped bridesmaid dresses via Ruffled,
Bottom Square: flowergirls with peacock & mint hair clip via Green Wedding Shoes , mint jelly party favor via Green Fingerprint , wheat wedding cake by Martha Stewart Weddings , rustic window & flower girls in mint sweaters.


Are you in love too?

Milk & Honey Home Design

some of my favorite things......mornings, 
hot coffee in my Anthro mug with a little splash of milk & sugar, 
sweet scones with s little bit of honey & butter, 
sitting on my oatmeal linen couch wrapped in a blanket reading a book.....

why not design using your favorite things as inspiration...
add a splash of milk & a bit of honey to your home!

grab a mug from the shelf
pour yourself some coffee with a splash of milk & a little sugar



  put a little bit of honey & butter on your scone
{kitchen design from Milk & Honey Home}


get a cozy blanket


wrap yourself up on your comfy couch & read the latest book....


Sometimes the simplest things in life are the sweetest.  
Simply using the colors of milk, honey, and butter throughout a room might just make it your favorite. 


This just might be my inspiration for my next event...
happy day everyone. xo!
