Fabulous Fabric Flowers

Now I am really having fun!! I just started making these adorable fabric flowers. I love how the different texture and color of all the fabrics create a unique look for each bloom. My daughters and I have been wearing them in our hair to top off the perfect outfit. Imagine them on flower girl baskets and ring bearer pillows. I will have some more pictures in near future.

New Burlap Bags

New!! Here we go again. We didn't want to limit ourselves to just reception decor. These burlap bags are great for aisle decor but of course can also be used for the reception. This size is 4x8, but we most definitely be glad to do custom orders. I just love the rustic wire handle. You could also hang a cute little tag off one of the whimsical swirls. They are available in our Etsy store. Bulk discounts are available!!

Gold Rush

We were lucky enough to find this brilliant gold wire. Now all of favorite holders can also be made in gold!! The same pieces look totally different much more formal in the gold wire. We are excited to be able to serve more brides. All of the items are currently listed in our Etsy store.

The Studio

We have been through a lot of growing pains, rearranging, organizing and of course decorating to make our studio a fun and inspirational place to work. It is a never ending project but that is good because it means we are constantly growing. I couldn't ask for a better place to work and play. I say play because we have so much fun that it doesn't seem like a job. Over the next few weeks we will be giving you a glimpse into our studio and our lives. It is important for us to feel that connection with our customers and readers which is hard to do when our business is 99% online sales. We converse through emails and occasionally phone calls with customers when helping to create the perfect event. Mostly are orders are just a name on the screen and we have to use our imaginations to picture the type of event they may be having. Our main purpose in sharing our workspace with you is to bring you into our world for a moment. Even though we may have only an image in our mind of the person that belongs to the name we take pride and enjoy knowing we have helped make that special day or event even better. Nothing goes out our door unless it is perfect and if you know my sister you know that statement is 100 percent true! Thanks for coming back and reading our blog and please return soon so we can share a little bit of our sunshine with you!! Dawn

DON'T FORGET THE TABLE NUMBER HOLDERS

In the midst of our very busy work load this summer we had a record number of rushed orders. Many brides contacted us not realizing until the last minute that their event venue did not provide the table number holders. Of course we were happy to help them out. We have many choices from rustic to whimsical and everything in between. Our newest addition would be the adorable little chalk boards. The wood is reclaimed coming from our 1800's farmhouse. We salvaged as much as we could after loosing most of it in an electrical fire. Anyway, I am glad to use this wood and share a little piece of my house with you. There are so many creative ways to display the table number. We sent out some cards and holders last week in which the bride used locations from their college campus to mark the tables. I would love to see pictures of those tables. Don't overlook the table numbers and holders because they are a great way to integrate your personalities.
But of course, if you do forget and need help at the last minute we will be here to help you.
Just so you know, anytime you see a product on our blog that is not on our website you can find it in our Esty store!!

Whimsical Table Number Holders and Hand Cut Whimsical Number Cards

Our vision for The Funky Shack has been for a long time to be that place that every bride wants to visit for unique handcrafted wedding decor and custom orders. I know that I promised jewelry months ago and we have an exclusive artist but it is taking some time to get it up and running. Be patient and we will soon have great pieces for brides and the wedding party. For now we are concentrating on expanding our table top decor. After taking these pictures, I saw how beautiful the hand cut card looks in the holder that I decided to offer them together. This makes it convenient for the bride and she gets a unique and whimsical look for her tables. We started printing cards sometime last year and have done everything from numbers, to locations and storybook names. I just listed this table number holder in our Etsy store. It is listed as a set of 12 table number holders with 12 hand cut table number cards.

Thanks for reading and come back soon to see more creative wedding decor ideas.
