Handmade Holiday :: Rosemary Place Cards

December 16, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Handmade Holiday : Fresh Herb Place Cards | Dreamery Events It’s the most wonderful time of the year… except when it involves hectic schedules and endless to-do lists. This year, I’m determined to not let holiday craziness, both personally and within the business, get the best of me, or in the way of savoring this magical season. This is one of the most magical times of the year, and so in keeping with this year’s goal of “simplicity” I’ve been creating very easy DIY’s that are elegant, whimsical, and a personal way to incorporate more holiday decor within your home and entertaining!

Handmade Holiday : Fresh Herb Place Cards | Dreamery Events If you’ve been following along you may have noticed I’ve taken matters into my own hands by keeping this holiday season stress-free, even amongst all the orders, event work, and personal sh** to take care, and focusing on what really matters! Who’s with me? And although a handmade holiday may seem like the opposite and make the holiday even more stressful, it actually helps you relax by getting craftsy with holiday themed fun, while repurposing items from holidays past, that may be simply taking up space in your home.

So to continue our next installment of Handmade Holiday, I’m sharing these lovely nature inspired place cards perfect for your next holiday party table!

It’s only in the last two years or so that personally my family has begun using place cards at Thanksgiving. Since Christmas we have big two day celebrations, we tend to take it a bit more casual, so for Thanksgiving {where our focus is to begin gathering once again, being thankful for each other and the delicious spread on the table} we tend to make decor and styling just a bit more nicer. 

In keeping with a foraged natural simplistic holiday, these fresh herb place cards mimic this lovely wreath and only require pieces of cards stock and sprigs of fragrant fresh rosemary.

Hot glue in place. I made a hole punch to insert the branch to make sure it was better secure.

Some hung them at work, others to sit along a frame and my cousin even placed it onto her tree, how fun right?! 

These place cards really are the simplest decor to make, yet make for such a lovely addition to a holiday table, without taking away from the special seasonal celebration!

I’ve never been one to connect with the color pu I’ve never been one to connect with the color purple much, & yes I believe everyone connects to colors in certain ways. And yet, Clematis are some of my favorite flowers🌿

For a brief few Spring days each year, the garden is a vision of purples....deep rich violets that almost look black, their sheen like velvet, delicate lavenders & pretty mauves that flutter in the breeze. Nature is a true delight for the soul🤍

They’re calling for a too hot, too soon kind of weekend, but we’ll be surrounded w. love celebrating a special wedding at a lovely location! Hope this weekend brings you moments of rest & joy, that allow you to look at all that is blooming🌱…
tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight of the fact I get to create & "work" w. beautiful flowers; one of the things I love so much & one of the joyful parts of creating & sharing my work w. others. But this whole social media thing is weird right, the world is weird & broken right now -- as creatives seems like are new age question is "do I post this pretty picture when this is really happening right now?! but it's also kind of my job to put my work out there for others to see, right?!" ... but I’m learning, funny enough, by some inspiring women on this platform, it's ok to feel all these things while also sharing the joyous, cool & helpful things we are all working on, creating & hoping to bring into this world. Life is filled w. beautiful & sad moments, happiness, joy, grief, fear, doubt, love. All the tiny things🤍

& if anyone watched last night's This is Us, how beautiful was their telling of one's final moments, looking back at life. Ugh my heart😢
There’s one word to describe the first full even There’s one word to describe the first full event of the season…ethereal🤍

Event season is in full swing & it’s nice to finally step aside from planning to bring all the ideas, time & details to life!
“We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, “We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, rising & falling into our weathered souls…” - Angie Weiland-Crosby🌼

May is the start of a busy few months of events, so I’m going to make sure I prioritize Rest whenever I can. But also plenty of garden days, living & cherishing simple moments — because when the busy days will feel like a blur or the state of the world (big/small) only adds to the mental drain, I know these will be the things that keep me going🤍
