I always enjoy designing wedding invitations, but these were particularly exciting to create, because they were for my brother’s rehearsal dinner.  I have such beautiful memories from that evening, and it was such an honor to contribute this one small detail.

I was honored to design a rehearsal dinner invitation to go along with the wedding invitations I shared recently here.  The bride asked me to incorporate the ribbon from the RSVP postcard, as well as more floral details.  They are very sweet and simple!

I’m excited to share my most recent wedding invitation design.  It features the free font I released a few months ago, Aster Bloom, combined with KG Hard Candy Solid.

My second font is now available!  I designed this font with a little bit of structure and little bit of whimsy – the base is a traditional serif font, but it is has a handwritten style with a contemporary twist.  Its name is inspired by the fall flower, the aster.

I recently had the opportunity to create these rustic wedding invitations for a friend.  I used free handdrawn wreaths from Best Day Ever, a simple ribbon from Sugar Studios, and two free fonts: Antrokas and Mossy.  I love the look of the dramatic calligraphy contrasted by the clean handwritten font.

When Tanner and I got married, we didn’t spend much money on decorating our apartment.  Most of our furniture was either given to us or ours before we got married, and we haven’t done much with it since.  I recently stumbled across this dresser makeover and was inspired to add a new touch to my own dresser.

I had this dresser from Ikea in my bedroom from before we got married, but it is one of the pieces of furniture we had that fit relatively well into our style – clean and simple.  Unlike the dresser at Smitten Studio, mine was already white, so I just wanted to add some sparkle (literally and figuratively) to our knobs.  I had some left over metallic gold spray paint from some decorations I made for my wedding last year (see here), and I also gathered some extra materials I had lying around to help make the painting process easier.

Supplies:
knobs (of course)
spray paint
toothpicks
styrofoam (or a cardboard box)

I placed each knob onto a toothpick to make them easier to handle while painting.  While my idea worked really well for the knobs, I unintentionally gave my left thumb a new coat of nail polish, so you may want to use gloves. As I finished each knob, I simply stuck the toothpicks in the styrofoam to let them dry without having to touch them or rest them on anything. And here are the finished results!  I was pretty satisfied since I spent no money on the materials (although even if I had, it would have come out to less than $10), and it only took about 15 minutes. What are some simple makeovers you have done that made a big impact?

I created my first font!  My family and friends have always teased me about how my handwriting could be a font, so I decided to make it happen.  It’s inspired by my puppy, Poesy, and my love for flower doodles, so I named it Posey Blossom!
