Inspired By: Gold Leaves

Whoever thought of spray painting leaves gold was a genius...and it is one of our very favorite things to do when needing a hint of metallic at your table. It adds the perfect touch of elegance, especially for winter. We highly suggest this trick for your Holiday decor and it adds great shine for New Years as well! We always love the girls over at 100 Layer Cake and they recently posted a DIY tutorial for a golden magnolia wreath by Danielle from Brown Paper Design that we can't get enough of. The golden wreath paired with a gorgeous centerpiece like the one above is sure to have all your guests in awe!

DIY: Buffalo Stand

Do you remember our fun fall buffalo wedding inspiration we shared with you for our cute couple Sarabeth and Tyler's wedding? Their wedding turned out beautiful and could not have been better! We will be showing you the pictures from the event as soon as we get our little hands on them. In the meantime we wanted to share with you this fun diy for the buffalo stands Troy created. Enjoy!

This video was created by Bryan Lim, a fun visitor we recently had! You can view his blog here.
Thanks Bryan!

DIY: Paper Pinwheel Backdrop

Isn't this backdrop so bright and fun? Definitely what we love here at amorology!  While we're typically all about creating custom unique backdrops for our clients, our amazing bride Susie actually created this masterpiece ...which of course gives us an endless appreciation for the time that went into it! When brides use their talents to add personal touches to their wedding, it always makes a difference in the atmosphere on the big day. We believe in those personal touches and felt spoiled to get to work with such a crafty bride!

Acqua Photo provided the base and the bride took over the design. Susie used this paper pinwheel art tutorial and added wooden clothespins to the back of each one. This ended up being helpful when the time came to move the backdrop from their living room to the wedding venue. A time capsule video of the assembly was put together and can be viewed here. Susie will also be adding some more tips on her wedding site in the near future.

Thanks for sharing Susie!
