carolinableu: austin + jewels = yes please
{ white oaks }
carolinableu's earrings appeared (conveniently enough!) in all their golden oaky glory in the etsy mini feed from the wedding gift guide -- who am i to resist?
her profile was the clincher -- let's see: austin? check. vintage obsession? yes. never leaves house without camera? sounds familiar. "walking contradiction"? sister! but oh. growing up with horses and rivers in the hill country? that was the childhood *i* ordered. that's ok, it's on layaway... something to look *forward* to. :)
long story short: chris, let me know when you're passing through town. i think we may be long-lost cousins.
the earrings above can be customized in rose quartz, flourite, smoky quartz, carnelian & new jade -- might make a nice bridal party set with a different stone for each? the "clever girl" earrings (middle left, below) can also be customized with different stones. lovely gifts abound. hooray for austin!

kristinemays: letters and numbers
{ the letter F }
here's a fine idea (courtesy of etsy's front page, thank you very much!) for a great little accent. kristinemays 4x6" handmade wire sculptures could be your initial by the cake, or used in a set as table numbers, or could spell out a word or two -- or might be a fun gift! they do just fine outside (and if left out permanently will patina nicely over time).
one of the best details (i think!) is that they're made of the same wire used to mend fences. sweet. (a little fence-mending wire would have come in handy at my family's events! as in: "sit there and be nice to each other, or i will wire you all to your chairs." mercifully they all did fine without. :)
she also does larger sculptures as well (check out the shoes and the dresses on her blog), or you may have seen her work if you're from the SF bay area... neat!
