This board, posted on Style Me Pretty, is inspired by the famous nonsense poem, by Edward Lear (first published in 1871), The Owl and the Pussycat. I would never have thought to put this pair in a wedding post were it not for the lovely invitations by Emily Johnson of EMprint Press. And so I present the beautiful pea green boat, a one shilling wedding ring (by Etsy artist Magic in the Grass), a dress made of runcible spoons (sporks, actually!) and plenty of moonlight to dance in!
*A bit about runcible spoons - "They dined on mince, and slices of quince,which they ate with a runcible spoon . . . " - it seems to be unclear, but Lear may have meant a pickle fork or a grapefruit spoon (some sort of a spoon with prongs). In my inspiration board I couldn't resist dressing our little Miss Pussycat in a dress made of over 750 sporks that I found here!
Other nice things to have would be:
Quince (photo by Liz Perlman)
Fun bridesmaids jewelry by Mother Eagle
And wouldn't this wooden brooch, by Made by White, look sweet pinned to the brides bouquet?
Here's a closer look at those beautiful invites by EMprint Press -
