Family Craft Boutique

You spent a lot of time and resources to create your beautiful wedding.  The church was perfect and the reception was well attended.  Even the food got raves from your guests.  Now, your gown is in storage in your closet and you are back from a glorious honeymoon.  You are relaxing on your comfortable sofa and reviewing the proceedings of the occasion. Wow! You never really noticed the beautiful tulips in the church or the bouquet of orchids you were carrying as you walked down the aisle.  And your guests, weren’t they the most fashionably dressed lot?  Everything seems to have been just a blur then but all the details are coming back through your pictures.

Fortunately, photographers were working hard that day.  You have a lot of pictures and you decide to keep it all in a wedding scrapbook.  It is really simple.  You can buy a scrapbook kit that will contain an album, pens, punches, stickers, scissors and a collection of wedding scrapbook paper. Scrapbook paper for wedding photos comes in various designs that will coordinate with stickers and embellishments.  Choose your favorite photos and arrange them creatively on a sheet of wedding scrapbook paper.  Add a funny or sentimental note and some stickers.  Do this for all your chosen photos and you will come up with an album of memories that will be fun to review from time to time.

 In the West, style décor is inspired by the rustic, the natural and the rugged.  Influences of American art are evident.  Primitive country décor sits well with this style.  It evokes warmth and casual living closely associated with hospitality and friendliness.  Wood is the material of choice in these decorations.  They may be handcrafted or produced with the help of machines but always they adhere to the natural look.

Many of today’s homes embrace the style of primitive country décor.  These are homes of people who want to connect to the beauty of the great outdoors.  An old bench positioned in the garden is inviting.  Fine antiques are used to adorn distressed open cabinets. Candles and potpourri as well as table runners and window treatments are personal expressions of style.
