All of a sudden, we're starting to see super fashionable bowties and neckties and, honestly, its about time! Why should girls have all the fun?! There are some great offerings out there from General Knot & Co (above) and Forage (below).

Loving these simple graphic ties from J. A. Christensen:

More Royal Wedding Souvenirs

il_570xN.233044027

Okay, okay - so we're clearly not over the Royal Wedding (and its related details)...check out this amazing plate designed by HL longtime favorite, Rob Ryan. We're also pretty smitten with these tea towels from Thornback and Peel:

Thornback and Peel Linen Teatowel

Finally, there's also a print, tote, mug, and keychains from The House that Lars Built. So cute!

Commemorative plates

JAPlates

It may seem as though we are just a wee bit obsessed with The Royal Wedding, but when we found these plates designed by our most favorite, Jonathan Adler, we couldn't resist! They are part of a series of designer commemorative plates that will be auctioned off on April 29th to benefit Shelter, a British housing and homelessness charity.

Bow-tie paper clip DIY

BW-paperclip-bow

Spotted this cute DIY over at How About Orange...such a cute and easy idea to brighten up your paper clip collection. We think this would be a super cute idea for place cards too! Just use a different color or pattern for each escort card and then use the same fabric to decorate each table - your guests can even wear the paper clips on their lapels! See the full instructions here.

Midsummer Night's Dreamy

Love these bone china tea lights/votive holders by Karin Erikkson.  Would be so dreamy for an evening's reception at a rustic chic wedding.

And we thought these vellum cut paper votives would be beautiful for an asian-themed wedding reception. Gives us DIY ideas, wethinks.

Teeny Hand-Blown Bottles

How gorgeous and adorable are these! Hand blown borosilicate glass bottles, made from the same sort of glass as Pyrex and your everyday run-of-the-mill scientific glassware. Amazing!

We have a weakness for miniature things anyhow, so we really have a shine on these. Love green glass!

Lordy! A wine bottle and a teeny Erlenmeyer flask!  The maker is a pro and has a degree in scientific glass blowing, but the work is surprisingly affordable. The etsy shop is called Kivaford. Imagine our surprise! Wouldn't these be fab as wedding favors, for wee bud vases?

New Garden of Love Stamps

We're excited about the new Garden of Love stamp design by José Ortega.  Love the whimsical illustrations! Coming out May 19th, it will be a beautiful embellishment for wedding invitations and wedding rsvp cards!

Good for just about anything one might wish to mail, but we think it'd be extra wonderful for garden wedding invitations and floral wedding invitations.
