Maple Leaf Flower Tutorials

Thanksgiving is around the corner and I wanted to find a DIY centerpiece idea and came across two tutorials from NH.com and Nicole Duke to make these love flowers out of maple leaves. I could see these as a large bouquet or as individual place settings with a name card. Now I just need to figure out to do with the abundance of acorns we're going to have this year.

Art Deco Inspired

Here's a recent mood board put together for Nan Lee Jewelry exploring the theme of Art Deco for a wedding. This is one of my favorite design eras and inspired the Modern Art Deco invitation suite shown below. Clean lines and geometric shapes will never go out out of style and this theme works equally well for a day or evening event. What's your favorite era?
