We love twists on traditional escort cards, especially when the bride and groom incorporate a rustic flair. Heidi & Alex’s rustic DIY wedding is completely awe-inspiring, but one of our favorite details is the DIY skeleton key escort cards. They secured vintage piano music sheets onto an old, rustic wooden frame and suspended skeleton keys (tied onto escort card tags) with twine. This is one of our favorite real wedding details ever! Beautifully done, you two! source: Clayton Austin | Heidi & Alex // Happy Planning! ♥ -E.... |

Time always seemed to slow down during our visits to her world … we would pick peaches and strawberries and mak... |
Last but not least in today’s 3-part DIY Wine Glass Decor feature, here’s another ode to the popular vintage skeleton key trend… this time with GLITTER! I know we have lots of fellow glitter fans out there! =)These cute sparkly key “glass charms” took only a few minutes using a set of skeleton key chipboard embellishments, spray adhesive, and fine glitter. I also finished with a quick coat of clear gloss spray paint to help keep the glitter in place. Again, love the idea of doing these in black & orange for Halloween, or in multi color for housewarming parties... |
