Tradition Revision...These ring pillows are so adorable.

When I first started looking for inspiration and wedding eye candy,  I was attracted to modern ideas and designs.  While modern can certainly be beautiful, nothing says " I do" better than tradition. 
One thing I noticed while planning my wedding is that more and more elements are becoming traditional and less modern.  It started with the venue, then the dress and after a while I really started to embrace all the traditions.  They have meaning and history, and " If it's not broken, why fix it"?  I started looking for traditional inspiration and found that "main stream" wedding accessories and decor are so....blah.  I found nothing fascinating about finding the same ol' same ol' around every corner.  I was looking for a unique twist on tradition.  Out of my google adventures and some etsy browsing I came across some inspiration in the form of ring pillows.    I have a few hand crafted favorites and I also started hand crafting my own.  Something that was suddenly important was passing things down.  Thinking about marriage and the meaning, children, grand children.  I started to yearn for the things that my children would want, heirlooms and heirloom quality possessions.  I think these fit the bill.

Inspiration Board One. Vintage Romance

This inspiration board flows with the vintage romance theme so nicely.  I love the soft colors of pink, white, and cream. The wrought iron is also a nice contrast giving to a more euro vintage feel.  I love it!  The dress is a Casablanca Bridal Gown, Style number 1860.
