we shopped around for months before the wedding collecting odd vases, bottles, tea cups and saucers, candlesticks, and anything else that caught our eyes. we wanted blue, brown, and creamy things. items to hold vintage buttons, floating flowers, short and tall candles, sticks, feathers, flowers, beads...
we found some great wooden candlesticks that i spray painted chocolate and we used with tall teal tapers. we found some awesome old clorox bottles (brown glass) that looked impressive with a single blue hydrengea in them. got some short old copper candlesticks i spray painted cream then sanded for a vintage/distressed look. we turned them upside down and placed the tea cup saucers on top to use as a holder for the buttons and things.
i was very happy with what we collected and am still not sure which i enjoyed more, the collecting or using!
