Affordable, Couture Clutches!

23 Sep

Australian designer, Tania Maras of Percy Handmade, creates gorgeous, custom clutches using lush fabrics and lacey embellishments (as pictured). These couture creations can be purchased for only $55 each from her percyhandmade etsy shop.
You don’t have to travel to the land down under for them either. Maras has worldwide shipping! Just allow 7-10 days for shipping and about a week for construction.

Take it from me: I have two of the same cheesy cloth, monogrammed bags from two different weddings that won’t even match my new initials (after my nuptuals). They are probably stuffed in a drawer, just taking up space.
Don’t get your special bridesmaids something monogrammed and manufactured at a dime a dozen you see at virtually every bridal shop…
Honor them with something special to have and to hold forever… like a one-of-a-kind clutch from percy handmade!

Shea Chic Designs

12 Sep
 
Shea chic designs creates handmade, custom wedding items to reflect your unique wedding style (examples above).  With only a few hours to celebrate an event that has been taking over your time and energy for months, you are going to want special keepsakes to carry on the memories.
I am loving the custom card boxes by Shea Chic Designs.  The idea of stuffing precious  items into shoeboxes after a wedding is unsettling.  How nice to have a stunning card box that reflects your wedding decor and can also carry special keepsakes for years to come.
The Shea Chic line includes an array of fabulous (customized) items like: monograms/cake toppers, guestbooks, and ring pillows.  I am also a huge fan of their trademarked pearlized couture cake toppers, available in many different colors.  They are nothing like the cookie cutter letter toppers you see over and over again.
All items are reasonably priced at under $100! You can also save 10% by ordering a custom set of three (which includes a silk dupioni and embellished pillow, card box and guest book).
To order your own item(s), email sheachicdesigns@yahoo.com or visit the Shea Chic Etsy store
