Hi there! I am super excited today as A Handcrafted Affair just received it's first blog feature so I just had to tell you all about it! Little Peanut Magazine is featuring the Whimsical Woodland Tea Party on their blog that I had the pleasure of collaborating with Anissa from House Seven Design and Abby from Maeve Vintage Rentals.
Anissa and I have been friends for about 15 years and she recently introduced me to Abby which was a perfect match for collaborating as we all share a passion for living creatively. It was so great to work with both of them and to be able to include our kiddos in the shoot made it even more special.
I had so much fun creating the headpieces which were made from crepe paper, felted wool and wooden twigs. And if you recall, I like to try my hand at the occasional face painting and these lil' girls were loving it too!
Abby's vintage setting from her "Little Maeve" rental collection was perfect and I loved all of her little touches of detail.
Huge thanks to Anissa for being photographer for the day. It was pouring rain that day but we were determined to stick it out and finally the rain let up for about 30 min which Anissa did a great job of directing and getting in the shots before it down-poured on us again.
It was also pretty comical as the girls were eating all of our props before we had even wrapped the shoot. I don't blame them, the macarons were pretty yummy!
Here's a few behind the scene pics but be sure to head over to Little Peanut's blog for the full feature!
