These bright and colourful hand-crafted products, created by two talented California women with a passion for party planning, could spark a host of ideas around which you can plan your big day.

We love the cheery feel of the party styling kits and we can’t stop smiling over quaint accents like the mini cupcake stands, and mason jars with stamped pewter lids (fill these with colourful jellybeans or small lollies to make charming wedding favors). Also, the oh-so-lovely hand dyed paper doilies are sheer heaven.

Vic & Albie Wedding Favors 18.10.2011

Who knew garden markers could be so chic?

Check out these “upcycled” kitchen utensils from Vic & Albie. These are actually made from antique silverware—hammered, hand-stamped, and polished with love by mother-and-daughter team Elaine and Kathryn, who we think are simply brimming with fabulous creative juices! And because these spoons and forks are silver-plated, they develop that beautiful patina over time, which gives them an authentic vintage look and feel.

These would make great wedding favors, bridal party gifts, or place markers. They also have this cheeky set of soup spoons and a pair of salt and pepper servers made from cute little demitasse spoons.

Burlap Treasures from Victorian Station 10.10.2011

Oh, how sweet it is to be loved!

These fantastic burlap items from Victorian Station are making us all googly-eyed with romance. There are banners, pillows, sachets filled with lavender buds, gift bags, purses, journals, gift tags, and even clothespins! These are not to be skipped over if you are doing the vintage or rustic wedding thing, as they would be great as wedding favors and wedding accessories.

Linda Brown, the lovely lady behind Victorian Station, has always been drawn to all things pretty and elegant. She grew up in a family that loved to do crafts—her mother was a cake decorator and seamstress, and her grandmother and great-grandmother enjoyed making quilts together. As she grew older, she started decorating, designing, and eventually, sewing.  When she opened shop on Etsy she was surprised at how quickly her handmade creations started selling; since then they have been featured on magazines such as Southern Weddings and Gala Weddings, blogs, and even HGTV.

Now on to our favorites from Victorian Station (it’s hard not to make everything a favorite!)…

“Handmade is very special, in that it has been handled in every way and you can touch another person’s work,” says Linda. “Even if the buyer doesn’t realize the time that goes into the process of making an item, they can see the quality of workmanship. To me, handmade work is one of a kind — a product of who you are.”
