More Antlers

Forgot about some of these older sets we've done:

A 6 point mounted on a chevron plaque of cream and burnt orange with cream fabric. Find it here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/162970787/vintage-deer-antlers-six-point-taxidermy


 










Another plaid set on a gray painted plaque found here:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/163514223/vintage-deer-antlers-8-point-taxidermy





And a full skull that we painted gold and wrapped the base of the antlers with braided embroidery floss found here:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/163558106/vintage-deer-skull-and-anlters-gold





New Antler Sets

Just in time for the winter season decor are two new cozy antler sets!

The first set can be found on our shop here:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/165648490/vintage-deer-antlers-8-point-taxidermy

A brown and cream geometric fabric covers this 8 point's skull and is finished with some jute twine.  The set is mounted on a plaque made from salvaged barn wood; I'll be sad to see this set go.







This 6 point is mounted on a light mauve painted plaque and covered with a delicate cream colored floral fabric and trimmed with jute twine; will also be sad when this set goes.   If I had it my way I would hang a million of these in my house <3

New Antler Sets

Been lucking into some antlers lately so we've been busy getting some ready for the fall/winter season.
Here are our three newest sets.

Set one is done on a gray plaque and covered with a flannel/wool like plaid and trimmed with black rope. This will be listed on our shop as soon as we find a box that this large 9 point will fit in.



Set two is a large 8 point on a dark walnut plaque covered with a canvas like brown, tan, and black plaid and trimmed with a chocolate brown rope - will also be listed on our shop when we find a proper box for shipping.



Set 3 is an 8 point mounted on a cherry tree wood slab and covered with a faux black leather; it's trimmed with a silver chain that has a black suede strip intertwined into the chain links.  This set is listed on our shop - https://www.etsy.com/listing/156432171/vintage-deer-antlers-8-point-mounted

Fabric Covered Mounted Antlers

New set of antlers up on the shop! An awesome 7 point mounted on a distressed muted aqua plaque with a textured aqua and taupe fabric

Vintage bottle display

Have been collecting bottles for my upcoming wedding so we decided to think of a cute way to display them on a table for a reception site







Vintage Teacups

Our quest this week was to come up with cute uses for the many many tea cups we've collected over the years.  The dainty patterns and colors just ask to be displayed other than in a china cupboard.

Up first, we have teacups and saucers attached to vintage candle holders to make an adorable number display and mint holder for a wedding table - include a cute vintage silver spoon for serving


 Next we have a teacup with the saucer on top to hold your favorite jewelry you wear everyday - much easier than taking it in and out of a jewelry box everyday

 A good gift (or favor) idea is the vintage teacup candle.  Buy bulk wax and scents online for a cheap but classy gift that has been very well received by all that I have given one to
Another good gift or favor idea - we picture it at a garden themed bridal shower - is to put a small flower in them.  A six pack of flowers is quite inexpensive or if you want a different look succulents look cute too



 Vintage teacups are widely available at local thrift stores and are an inexpensive way to show gratitude as a gift to your guests or use them in creative ways to add to your decor
