new beginnings on christmas day

So today is Christmas day 2010 and it's the beginning of The Hand Made Wedding Co. I hope to delight you all with photographs, how to's and hints on how to make beautiful things  - not just for weddings - by hand.
My favourite thing I've had adorning my Christmas table is the simplest of all, tea lights in tea cups, so elegant, warming and simply stylish surrounded by fresh ivy.

I've also hung the bunting to add a subtle splash of colour to the cold walls as well as coloured paper fortune tellers to help the party along;


and finally -  so as not to bore you on our first day out - cake stands made from recycled plates and sherry glasses (these are possibly my favourite as they are stupidly simple and can always double up as fruit stands or key and letter holders when they don't have cakes on);


So, for now, I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and have an eventful New Year
