{Handcrafted: Fabric Covered Letters}

Hi loves!  Sorry I am running a bit behind this morning ;-)  I am working like crazy around here trying to get all of my Handcrafted items photographed, measured and ready to add to the new website once it is done.  In addition to vintage rentals, and because I love to craft so much, I figured I would add my handcrafted items to the new website in a Handcrafted section. 

I just opened an Etsy store this morning, why I am running behind, called OTM Handcrafted ~ it is a spot where you can place a custom order for any of my handcrafted items.  I am in the process of getting things together, and should have everything uploaded by Monday, August 22nd.  But here's a sneak peek at my fabric covered letters...

Cute, no? 

I can do ANY letters in ANY fabric ~ either that you choose, or I choose for you.  I am selling these by letter ~ so you can spell out anything you'd like.  The letters are covered with fabric pieces, it is NOT decoupaged on...you can actually feel the fabric.  All orders are custom and made once the order is placed.  But all the details will be on Etsy.  Eeks, can't wait to get everything up for you to see ;-)

{Sneak Peek: Website}

Happy Monday and the first day of August my dears!  So sorry for missing a couple posts last week...with my family here, I thought I would find some time to post everyday, but it's been insanely busy around here.  And add to that the Fizz & Frills event that I am getting ready for this coming weekend in San Francisco ~ and I can honestly say that I am not sure that I will be getting a post up everyday this week!  I will try my hardest though ;-)

However, I do have some FABULOUS news ~ my website is at the programmers!!!  I can't wait for you to see the new website and blog, that I just have to give you a small sneak peek...

I did say small ;-)  But the stars are cute, no?

I will be back tomorrow with the 'Star of the Week' post, so be sure to check back and see what's tickling my fancy this week ~ hehe.

{Repurposed: Window}

It's Wednesday my dears.  And I couldn't be more tickled about it...as my family arrives from Florida today ~ YIPPEE!!!!!! I haven't seen them in over 7 months, which is way too long for me ;-)  So if you are looking for me...I'm the one playing lots of hooky the next two weeks!  Oh, I will still be posting daily here...but I will be spending every second that I can squeeze in hugging and kissing and sniffing on my niece and nephew.  Hehe.

Okay, enough about me and on with this post.  Today's repurposed post is something I am sure lots (if not all) of you have seen before, however there is something a bit different about it.  Have a look~see at this window with guests seating assignment (escort area)...

Did you notice it?  Okay, take another look if you didn't, I'll wait ;-)
 .........................hint ~ look at where the lock latch is.................................... 

Yes, it's on it's side! If it wasn't on it's side it would be much shorter...so I do like how it's turned on it's side

I adore this window, as I have two just like it...yep with the little feet as I call them and all.  However, I think mine has bit more chippy paint, but still the same.  I also LOVE the fact that they didn't write names in all of the panes!  And I adore the simple wood piece holding it up.

All in all ~ a fabulous window display, no?

{Make Over: Camping Stool}

Hi lovelies!  I have a cute little post for you today ;-)  I am LOVING the 'Make Over' of this camping stool...

Seriously, how cute is this?  A super duper quick way to give a camping stool a 'Make Over' ~ just add some fabric or a crocheted piece and viola!

{Inventory Inspiration: Doilies}

Hi loves!  So sorry I am running behind today.  However, I have a lovely 'Inventory Inspiration' post for you to try and make up for it ;-)

I LOVE doilies.  I have a huge collection of them in my inventory.  Have a look~see at just a teeny tiny sampling of what I have...

I love the different textures, materials, and shades of white, cream and beige.  Each and every one of them is fabulous in their own way!

Now let's have a look at our inspiration, shall we?  Here are the doilies that were used...

And here is how they were inspired to use them...

To adorn a cake table!  I'm over the moon about this darling and simple idea.  The doilies add just the perfect amount of softness to the wood table without being too much.  And I love how the detail on the cake looks like a doily.  All so fabulous, no?

{Inventory Inspiration: Three Tiered Metal Shelf}

Thank Goodness It's Friday ;-)  And to wrap up this week, I thought I would post this sweet 'Inventory Inspiration.'  Have a look~see at the inventory...

A darling three tiered cream metal shelf that I snatched up the second I saw it.  I knew there would lots of ways to use this piece...the first one coming to mind when I first saw it was to use it to hold cupcakes.  However, I am loving this sweet inspiration...

To hold toppings for an ice cream bar - yes, please!  Such a fabulous idea, don't you think?

Wishing you a wonderful weekend.  While I know I will be crafting away and getting things organized this weekend - I am hoping that you lovelies are out having some fun, enjoying the sunshine and having some ice cream ;-)  Maybe I'll just take my projects outside and work on them...that's sounds like a lovely plan, and a frozen yogurt sounds quite good too.  Oh with chocolate sprinkles of course!

{Fizz & Frills}

Hi loves!  Do you remember me hinting at something yesterday?  Well this is it...

Over The Moon Vintage Rentals (aka me...hehe) is going to be a vendor at Fizz & Frills for both days, and I couldn't be more elated about it!  I kept debating about applying to be a vendor for my homemade items...but finally I took the leap and applied.  And now I am so glad I did as this will be my first event ;-)

I will be selling and taking orders for my homemade custom designs.  I have been a busy little bee trying to get ready for this event, and have created some new homemade items that I can't wait to share with you once the event is over.  I will make sure to get pictures of all items and upload them into the 'Homemade' section.

There will be lots of Fizz & Frills, and other vendors as well so you DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS!  Make sure to get your tickets HERE!!!  And I will see you there...can't wait to say 'hi' ;-)

{Purchase Peek: Aqua Kettle}

I am sorry my dears for getting this post up soooo late!  Eeks.  I'm also sorry for the bad picture that I took on my iphone to send to my mom so she could see what I was talking about when I was on the phone with her...and never had any intention of sharing this picture with all you.  I will take another later this afternoon when I get back home, and replace the bad one...but I did want to share with you this darling little kettle that I picked up yesterday, and get this post up before nightfall!  So here she is...

See told you - bad picture.  Ugh, sorry.  And I didn't even show you the handle - which is sooo dang cute too.  Double ugh!

I picked up this kettle not only for the color (matches OTM's color perfectly) but a little something I have up my sleeve!  I just found out about it yesterday, and I will be able to share more with you very soon.  Until then just picture all the lovely things that you could do with this kettle ;-)

Ooh did I tell you that I have seen all the pages of OTM's new website site and blog?  You bet your buttons I did and I have to say I am OVER THE MOON about them all!  They are heading to coding soon, and am looking forward to the day I can finally share with all of you ;-)

{Star of the Week: Star Quilt}

Hi loves!  Happy Tuesday to you.  I have been quite starry-eyed the last couple of days, so I thought the 'Star of the Week' should actually include stars!  Which made my 'Star of the Week' pick super easy (just like my 'Styling Tip' below...hehe).  Have a look-see at my star quilt...

I love all the colors and pattern of this quilt.  And I know most people would rent a quilt(s) for an engagement shoot, a picnic inspiration shoot, for additional seating on the grass, to cover hay bails or to cover a table...and while I love them used in all of these ways, I also love them used in another way!

Styling Tip:  Use a vintage quilt for a photo booth backdrop!  It's super duper easy and quick ;-)

And fabulous idea, no?

{Styled: Wood Crate}

Happy Monday my dears!  Did everyone have a fabulous weekend?  Me - well my birthday was yesterday, so my weekend was just lovely ;-)  And my sister's birthday is today so....HAPPY BIRTHDAY sissy!!!

I just had to post this picture today for you, as it really shows that wood crates can be used in a variety of ways...

As a welcome area, cake table, escort area, favor holder, or just as decoration...lots of ways!  And they are all fabulous, no?

{Star of the Week: Step Stool}

Don't let this little guy fool you...

There are lots of darling ways in which to use this step stool!  So here are some styling tips for you ;-)

Styling Tips:  This step stool is perfect atop a table to use in a variety of ways.  First, with escort cards hanging from the steps.  Just use a push pin and some ribbon or twine so they hand down and voila ~ the perfect escort holder.  Second, to hold cupcakes or sweet treats on the dessert table looks cute.  Third, use on the welcome table to hold some fabulous details and flowers.  And fourth, use on the bar to hold the drink signs, or even glasses on the steps!

So many ways in which to use.  However, there are lots of other ways to use as well...not atop a table ;-)

{Styled: Mismatched China}

Happy Wednesday darlings!  We are halfway through the week already, can you believe it?  Eeks ~ in two weeks from today my family arrives from Florida...WOOHOO!!!  There is NOTHING like having your family around ;-)  Okay, enough chatter out of me!

I am loving the use of mismatched china here...

What I love about this table decor is that while the china is mismatched and vintage, the silverware and glasses are not...yet it works beautifully, wouldn't you agree?  A perfect example on how to mix old and new ;-)

I know ~ not the best picture, but I was just so thrilled to get them that I snapped a quick picture with my iPhone and wanted to share.  (I am loving the Instagram app!)  Also, I couldn't decide which back to go with...so I went 50/50!  I am just that option kinda girl ;-)
