Make: Throw Pillows


Our living room has been lacking substantial pillows for a long time. We've had the small one in the photo above laying around for a few years. The poly-fill and slip stitched cover has been less than ideal. I haven't been able to wash it and the poly-fill isn't very supportive.

The larger orange pillow in the back was made using a pillow form and an envelope pillow cover. I found a tutorial on Mini Manor. It's really easy to follow and assembly is quick. If you have ever debating buying new pillows I'd recommend just covering your old ones. It's a lot less expensive and you can pick your own fabric which is always nice.

Vintage Woodland Wedding: Invitation

Invites give your guests the first glimpse at your wedding style. These romantic, vintage, and woodsy invites were perfect for our small wedding at Krippendorf Lodge in Rowe Woods.  The combination of paper and fabric made quite an impact on our guests.


The overall theme for the wedding was a combination of vintage and woodland styles. The color palette was loosely based on robin's egg blue, blush pink, ivory, and brown. The kraft paper invites were screen printed with white ink. Then wrapped with either a blue or pink floral fabric to match the color palette.


Each reply card had a web address printed on it for guests to get more information on the wedding and RSVP.  It was tied around each invite with a coordinating ribbon.
