Besides being a bridesmaid, I also did the flowers for my friend's wedding this past weekend. I love doing flowers and sometimes miss doing them for weddings, but it is a lot of work. This job was especially fun though because the bride had amassed vintage tins and they were all so uniquely pretty. I secretly wanted to sneak one and keep it to my self. Which one from the tins above is your favorite?

I'm doing this same thing for my wedding! Luckily, my kitchen is already full of old tins. Our theme is a Circus, so I really am in love with the Barnum's Animal Crackers tin! And the red Coffee one!
ReplyDeleteSo fun!

ReplyDeleteThe Barnum's tin grabs me...but partly because we used to have one growing up. We kept trail mix in it I think.
ReplyDeleteThat's so pretty, I love the mood on the pictures

Oh my, they are all so adorable! :) But I think I'm slightly partial to the Campfire Marshmallow tin...the white tin makes those gorgeous flowers pop.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm. Now I think I may have to go visit the flea market to look for some vintage tins. :)
This beats all the fancy expensive bouquets you see at many weddings! Simply beautiful! You're a talented lady :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tin is Sucre en Morceaux one.
i heart flowers and plants in tins. i just bought some poppy seeds and they came in a lovely tin.
