It's All About Twine


Twine is one of those items you can use for almost anything and is both readily available and inexpensive so you can use a lot or just a little.

Above, the twine is used to literally tie this look together. Below, add a vintage key or ornament to add more depth and character to your centerpiece.

 For those of you looking for more of a challenge find (or buy) twigs like pictured above. Depending on the size of your flower pot or vase you may need larger or smaller twigs. Using your twine you are going tie the twine around each individual piece and then use the twine to tie the next twig and so forth. Once you have a desired length you will tie the twine together to keep the twig covering closed. This is a sure conversation piece!

How fun is this? Take a piece or two of newspaper and morph it to the shape of a carrot. Using a spray adhesive (my personal favorite) generously cover the newspaper. Take the twine and wrap it around the newspaper pulling tighter at the tip and getting looser at the top. Take blades of grass or any foliage you would like, and using scotch tape bind it together. With the foliage tape side down put it into the newspaper. You just created your carrot top! To color the twine use orange chalk or any color imaginable. You can do this once the twine is wrapped around the newspaper or before.

A rustic and chic look, tying twine around a bouquet hold everything in place all the while look fabulous! I love this looks so much I used it last September in my own beach-chic wedding!

Using the same method we used to create our carrots you can also make eggs! In lieu of newspaper use a plastic egg as your foundation and glue gun the twine on.

Take This Key...


This past week one of our sales associates shared a heartwarming (and clever) story about a recent visit with one of her customers!


"When we came to the “Key to My Heart Key,” she said I will definitely be needing more of those! She told me that a gentleman came in and bought two of these from her, not thinking anything of it. The following week he came back in wearing the key around his neck: he used this key to propose to his wife! Of course she said yes and now they both wear these key’s around their neck! I thought this was so creative and sweet!"
