Pie!
Wha??
I’m an all American girl {you know, apple pie and all that} so I do love the Pie tables that some of the American weddings are having. You know, it’s just like a candy display or sweets or cake disply but with all American Pies!
Feast your eyes!
And even on a stick!
I think this is a perfect idea for a country, rustic or autumn wedding. But don’t forget the a la mode!

This is a repost. Call me lazy for drudging up past posts but I’m not really lazy. Just busy. {which is a good thing right?} And this repost from {omg} June 2010 {!} is still valid because everyone is talking about the new Great Gatsby film {Leonardo is gunna look great in that} which is due out at the end of the year so another 1920’s revival looks to be on the cards.
So here we go back in time a bit for some gorgeousness that is still in style.
I was doing a bit of twittering yesterday and came across a great Art Deco blog post by Annabel from Love My Dress. Annabel is all about glamour, vintage and sexiness. She has great resources and inspiration for an art deco wedding {which she had herself} so with the sincerest form of flattery I am taking the inspiration and running with it to show you too.

I said to someone recently that metallics and a bit more bling were coming on trend for 2012. Not that vintage or rustic is gone, it’s just that I think we are pretty much ready to come back to a bit more sparkle and shine. It’s like everyone is a little more optimistic and we want to show it.
A great example of where this sparkle and shine is coming in is mercury glass. You may have seen it popping up but not paid much attention. Well pay attention! Mercury glass can absolutely be used in your vintage wedding as candle holders, votives or for your flowers. – and you can make it. Yes you can take an ordinary glass whatever and mercury it! But more on that later. For now here are some pretty pictures to inspire you.

Now your DIYers, how do you create these lovelies? I present you with 2 tutorials. One by Martha and another by Anna. Believe it or not I find Anna’s more detailed. I think Martha just has the touch so maybe she doesn’t have to work as hard but I need all the detail I can get.
I may just try this for one of my girls!
