Inspiration Boards, XXIII

Okay, we are kicking off the last day of our inspiration board contest! I have loved the entries so far and I know that deciding on a winner is going to be ridiculously hard. If I didn’t have photo credits for the board that you sent, or you sent yours after the cut-off date, I sadly won’t be able to feature it. BUT, I will hold on to those and will enter them into our next contest.

So, without further ado, our first board for today was designed by Maddy…

Flower Bucket : theknot.com, Flowers in Pedestal Vase: mimi-design.com, Invitations: oslopress.com, Mushroom Bird: theknot.com (I’ve seen these available for purchase at Michael’s), Lanterns: estiloweddings.com, Outside Lighting and Styling : theknot.com Distressed Pedestal Table : target.com

The overall look is “Modern Day Rustic” – distressed white washed tins and woods for a little bit of a shabby chic feel, with a contemporary color pop.

The aisles are lined with colorful pink flowers in vintage white tins with mild distressing, and the floral centerpieces are all flower – no greenery – in classic ceramic pedestal vases. Little pink mushroom birds can be integrated into the favors or onto vintage white painted metal bird cages (at Ebay or save-on-crafts.com). The white distressed pedestal table, paired with a pretty floral centerpiece, could serve as an excellent favor or place card table. White tin lanterns can be used to light up the tables in the evening.

   This is a good start, I just would have liked to seen more. One of the large pics could have easily been 4 small pics offering more for the discerning eye.

   I LOVE the rustic look beams and chairs with the pink. It's girly but still very much has that nature feel.
