An Inspiration Board from Cinderella4aday!

Cinderella4aday, a wedding and event coordinating team based in the Hudson Valley, is more than excited to guest blog on Eddies Hand Painted Things! New and creative ideas are right up our alley, and we're so excited about Wincilla's work.

I (Alyssa) fell in love at first glance with the glassware shown in the post directly below.  Their beauty is multifaceted; they're obviously gorgeous and colorful, but they also evoke happy times and memories.  My absolute favorite is the Pink Pansies (second from top -- you can see the purple version here).  I love them so much that I wanted to make my first ever inspiration board!

The Pink Pansies give me a summery, old-fashioned feeling, and made me envision a summery, old-fashioned wedding! I'm not envisioning one strong theme, just a fluid, lovely mix of intimacy, the outdoors, and vintage touches.

The picnic basket and blanket occurred to me because I visualize my uncle's old dishes, utensils, and tablecloths - not to mention his finesse in presentation - and I can picture the class and elegance they would add to the day.  The painted stemware would take it to a whole new level!

Thanks for stopping by Eddies Hand Painted Things!

Strokes of Love

This week I decided to share with you a few of the paintings I've been working on. Just couples celebrating love.

As you all know Tracy won my first inspiration board contest and part of her winnings was a 20% discount for any additional or coordinating piece.  Tracy decide to get two additional pieces that reflected the colors of her upcoming wedding.

These stemware were created for a couple celebrating 25 years of wedded bliss.

These were for couple who expressed their unfailing love for each other on June 26, 2010.

I would love to know what you think.
