on custom orders & inscriptions, part two

I'm so excited to share this feature... I worked with a bride earlier this year on creating a custom book safe for their wedding. In addition to the book safe, I also made a teeny little pillow to hold the rings for their ceremony. Jen (the bride) just let me know their gorgeous wedding just got featured on Once Wed!! Eeek! Click for ceremony pictures and reception pictures.


I love working with brides & grooms on custom orders, and Jen's order was probably one of my favorites. We found a book called "The Life of Samuel Johnson", which matched perfectly with her wedding colors. However, my favorite part of the book was the inscription on the inside cover.



The inscription reads "This may be of some value". It was written by the previous owner, and it was just such a magical sentiment, especially for the purpose the book would later have.

Here are some more photos from Jen & Scott's wedding. I really love the handmade touches that they brought in - the keys, the vintage bottles - and I also love that they accessed Etsy for unique handmade elements as well. Check out that dress from the coveted Sarah Seven!









And more than anything... I feel so honored to participate in such an important and beautiful day! Many congrats and much love to you two!
