Some Lovely Finds From Etsy

I spend untold hours scouring the internet for things I can ♥.  I say ♥ because I like to like them, even when I don’t need them myself.  Here are some delicious vintage items from 13 Bees’ shop via etsy.

The Eco-Vintage Wedding Dress … Found!

Yes, please!  We were just discussing the idea of the environmentally-conscious wedding dress.  And today on etsy (I looooove etsy), I found this simple, stylish doily dress from Tawny Holt’s Armour sans Anguish.  I love this dress—it totally brings back memories of raiding my grandmother’s treasure trove of doilies, but it’s also irresistibly modern and romantic.  Each dress is environmentally conscious:  it’ll be fashioned from found, re-purposed doilies and made by Tawny, a local artisan (if you live in California, as I do).

Dreaming of a Trend …

If I could have one wish, it would be for capelets to catch on with brides … with my brides. (Secretly, I’d want to wear a non-white one, like this one from Holly Stalder, to weddings, but I think the poufy part would get all mashed by my four camera straps. Hmm …).
