Our newest design is a very special Limited Edition Ring Bearer Bowl ™ handcrafted of fine white clay, silk ribbon, and a darling vintage velvet white flower. There will only be 12 of these beauties available due to the use of vintage embellishments, so if you love it as much as I do, be sure to order yours soon!

You’ve heard me gush about the Custom Totes from the WeddingChicks before, but look at their newest designs for the boys!

What modern groom wouldn’t look handsome in this bow tie tee?

And while you are there, be sure to check out their new robes and custom tees, too.

Our clients Kimia & Kenny were married this spring in the grand Rotunda at San Francisco City Hall. The couple selected a Custom Gold Leaf Ring Bearer Bowl for their classic and elegant celebration- be sure to view more images from the one and only Jose Villa on the blog of event planners Dream a Little Dream Events, who did a stunning job bringing this wedding to life! Congrats, Kimia & Kenny, and thank you for the opportunity to create a custom heirloom for you!

Our clients, Kristin and Jarett, selected a Custom Bouquet Text Tile with gold leaf edge, to embellish the bride’s bouquet at their summer Southampton wedding. Wedding planner Lisa Green of Anderson Green Events in New York City tended to all of the details, as captured by photographer Craig Paulson. We hope that the personalized piece will become a treasured heirloom as Kristin and Jarett begin their lives together- just as Craig’s stunning images of their wedding day surely will be! Congrats!

Ashley Baber, one of Atlanta’s finest wedding and event planners, collaborated with the amazing David Murray Weddings photography team to produce this fresh engagement session which was recently featured on Style Me Pretty. David and Linda Murray created the stunning image above with our Tiny Heart Token; I love how something so little and precious can make such a beautiful statement. Thank you to everyone involved in the shoot for including our design!

These clever,  innovative iPad and iPhone covers are by the brand Pad and Quill. Each “engineered” wooden case is covered, by hand, in a real “book binding” by artisans in Minneapolis. So smart!

My newest find is artist Deborah Brackenbury of Impure Vessels, who creates bowls, planters, and other objects from colored concrete. I love how raw & rough the material appears, but the way it is worked creates a stone-smooth surface.  Add the soothing color palette &  patterning of Deborah’s pieces, and this work moved quickly to my “must collect” list!

We are thrilled to announce our newest retailer! We have partnered with the online and mail-order catalog gem of UncommonGoods. You can order our TO HAVE & TO HOLD Ring Bearer Bowl™ via their website, and soon to come, from their fall printed catalog.

As some of you may know, my father-in-law is an ambassador living and working in Haiti. He was there when the earthquake struck in January of this year, and the ongoing crisis and rebuilding of Haiti is something our family takes very seriously. My husband has the opportunity to travel to Port- au-Prince in the coming weeks, to visit with his father and witness the conditions there.

Since January, we at Paloma’s Nest, have been collecting funds from the sale of our TODAY I WILL… tiny text bowl to donate to the rebuilding efforts in Haiti. We are proud to announce that we have raised well over $500 to donate to relief efforts in Haiti, and my husband will be able to personally see that the money gets in the hands of those who need it most. Thank you to all who ordered this item, and in turn helped us to help Haiti.

I am always intrigued by work that blends traditional materials with modern tools and techniques. Uncommon, a collaborative effort of the husband and wife team Vincent & Jessie, does just that, in their collection of furniture and room accents. I love the blend of simple and intricate in this Wood Doily Clock.
