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.”

Who doesn’t love paper? We certainly do!

Nothing makes us happier than paper in fun shapes, colours, and textures. And whether you need wedding invitations or wedding favors, paper is such a fun and versatile thing to work with. Now, how lucky are we that Alana and Sara for Poppies for Grace are just as in love with paper as we are?

Take these lolly bags. Drop into each a little trinket or two, a chocolate or some other sweet, and little note saying “Thank you”, and presto—you’ve got the loveliest wedding favors around. Or, you can also use these as place card holders.
