Silver Star eBay Finds #3


And here we are again, with the last of our series on great silver star eBay finds. I actually only have one item to show you today, but I liked it so much I thought it deserved it’s own post:) This wedding cake topper has a very unique, modern look to it, and would be perfect on top of a simple white wedding cake. The cake topper is available from Twinkle Designs for about $20, so it’s very affordable as well.

This cake topper would work well for a July 4th theme, a white & black theme, or a masquarade ball theme.

Silver lanterns with star cut outs and etching – add to your decor, or use instead of flowers for your wedding party. Especially gorgeous for a candle-lite evening wedding! These are selling for $20 for the set of four.

I also really liked these silver star accents. They are 3D acrylic silver stars with glitter – and they are fairly large (6″ x 6″) without being heavy, perfect for hanging from the ceiling over your dance floor! They are sold in packs of ten, so it works out to about $2/star.

Silver Star eBay Finds #1


I love the idea of silver stars as a July 4th wedding theme and while looking for ideas for that theme,  I spent some time on eBay looking for inspiration. I thought I would share a few of the neat things I found for those of you planning a black and white, July 4th, Christmas, Silver or Star themed wedding:)

Navy Organza Bags with Silver Stars – these ones were listed a few times by different sellers, and you can pick them up for about 50 cents per bag. Add some white candies for a great wedding favor.  Silver Star Ring Bearer’s Pillow – this one is adorable, and it was listed for $13.

Interesting!


When I saw the thumbnail for this black & white wedding gown, I was a little unimpressed but something told me to take a closer look and I actually really like it! It has a VERY sexy low-cut back with just the slightest train – perfect for an informal or beach wedding. The black and silver embroidered pattern really gives it a whole character all on it’s own! This gown would be lovely for a unique bride, and for a more formal wedding, it would make a great bridesmaid’s gown as well!

For a bridal gown – it is REALLY affordable ($185!!).

Black Trimmed Veil


st-blackrt-elbow-mod1.jpg

Black wedding gowns are all the rage in Paris right now, but here in North America black and white is just starting to gain popularity. Adding black accents into a traditionally white aspect of the wedding makes a beautiful yet still dramatic effect. That’s why I LOVE this Black Trimmed Veil- it’s still very lovely, but with a nice dramatic touch. It would look amazing with a gown that has touches of black beading or a black sash, etc. And – it’s affordable to. This two-tiered, elbow length veil is $9.98.

Since my last post was about Save The Date cards, I thought I would look for some STD bargains to share today:)  I found a lot, but for this post, I am going to show you three of my favorites:)

First up is a clear vellum Save The Date card, that comes in just about any color you wish. What you do is send them the font color you prefer, and then they find a ribbon to match that font color as closely as possible. These are definitely adorable and priced at $25 for 50 – that’s 50 cents a piece. Not bad at all. You can also pick from a large selection of font faces so that it better matches the look and feel you are aiming for with your wedding.

I also liked these Shadow Box Magnet save the date cards. I like the dimensional idea, it’s a nice twist on the popular magnet choice. From what I can tell, they are only available in the white and black – but they are very elegant and would work with any wedding scheme.  These ones are $48 for 48 – so twice the price as the ones above, but that is till a fairly decent price.

And my last find is not a card, but it’s a nice touch. These are Save The Date envelope seals, and they are just adorable so I had to share them:) They are fairly cheap as well, a set of 25 seals is less then $4. If you have the budget for that, it’s an awesome way to add a finishing touch to you STD’s before you send them out:)
