Who Says

...you can't wear a sailfish necklace on your wedding day?

I mean really...just have a look-see at how darling this little guy is...

He looks so happy, no?  Maybe because he is all blinged out ;-)  And did you notice the rope hook at the back?  One of those darling details that I love.  Wouldn't this be the perfect necklace to wear for a boat, beach or tropical destination wedding?  Oh, me likey!

P.S. -  I am not sure if you are familiar with sailfish, but they are truly amazing fish.  Not only do they have amazing jumping skills and swim at speeds up to 70 mph, but they also appear in bunches of beautiful colors, and can change their colors almost instantly!  (Oh my brother-in-law, Wayne, would be so proud of me right now...talking fish!  Wouldn't he Cole?)

Locket Love

I was thrilled when I ran across these vintage lockets...

And I think they would make gorgeous gifts for your bridesmaids, for your wedding day or after.  Each locket opens to hold two photographs, mementos or love notes.  It be perfect to hold a picture of your sweetheart and a petal from your bouquet after your wedding day, no?

The vintage floral wallpaper, peacock on a branch and the butterfly gallery set lockets are just a few of my faves for under $40.00 each.  However, there are lots of other fabulous designs available.  So head on over to Verabel on Etsy to have a look-see at all the other options.  I am sure you will find something you like, and even if they aren't your style...Mother's Day is just around the corner.  Happy shopping my dears!

...about the gold coin necklaces from Emersonmade!  Honestly, this little darling can do no wrong in my book.  Just look at her creations...

I love that 4 of the 6 coins come with Latin phrases on them.  The dragonfly coin (above) phrase means:  I shall either find a way or make a way!  So my motto these days.  Just a lovely positive thought, no?  And look how darling they look on...

Plus you could always wear it as a bracelet too - you know how I love options!  Oh, I think these would definitely be a hit with your bridesmaids!  You could buy them all the same one, or mix them up to fit each girl.  And with prices between $58.00 and $78.00, they won't break the bank either!  Wouldn't you love to get one?  I know I sure would...hmmm but which one?  I think I like the lion best...but I'll probably change my mind again in about five minutes ;-)  Which one do you like?

About Tamar's Etsy shop, Nest Pretty Things!  Specifically, this Dusty Rose Necklace...

And this Golden Feather Bobby Pin Set...

And...and...and...  Seriously, there are a handful of other lovely things that I am crazy about too...so hard to choose just a couple!

If you haven't been to Tamar's shop before, it is a must see.  I adore the vintage vibe, and that they are handmade.  Lots of darling pieces that are reasonably priced.  Not only is it perfect for a bride, but perfect for bridesmaids gifts too.  Can't you just picture the dusty rose necklace with a soft/light colored or beige bridesmaid dress?  So pretty, no?

How about this stunner for your something blue...

I am over the moon about Elva Fields necklaces! I can't believe I haven't shared her with you before now...as I have done a couple posts about here on my other blog, luna and chloe.  So sorry for holding out on you!

What I love about her necklaces are that they are made from vintage jewelry - usually necklaces and brooches that she puts together to create a one of a kind piece.  And what bride wouldn't want to wear a one of a kind piece on her wedding day!?!  And because I love her bling sooo much, here are a couple of other options that would be amazing to wear for the big day...

Perfect for the laid back but still need some bling bride.

I think this would be fabulous to wear at a rustic, country or garden wedding.

This last one is ideal for the beach!  And if you really want to take it up a notch you must have a look-see at her more colorful necklaces...swoon. 

P.S. - I will warn you now...when you check out her site you just might want to buy them all!
