A Spring Bridal Shower for Knitting Lovers
April 13, 2012I came across this beautiful photoshoot and I had to share. It’s absolutely stunning! I love the creativity that went into the beautiful tablescapes, floral displays and vignettes surrounding an unusual medium – yarn! As a knitter myself, I think it’s especially cool. For non-knitters, you have to love where this vintage, desert-setting, Spring-time party leads you.
This would be beautiful inspiration for a bridal shower – though it would be equally stunning as a baby shower, chic birthday or vintage wedding.
Those giant spools of thread! The browns, peaches, mustards, pinks and sage greens of the florals…
The entire shoot evokes a rustic, natural, organic feel in the styling:
Look at those colors together.
The knitting needle plate setting (above) is adorable, and the embroidery hoops wrapped in yarn (below) is a wonderfully creative backdrop for the party.
Other creative uses for incorporating knitting and yarn: wrapping the placemats, lining the lowest level of the tiered cake, adding buttons to the floral arrangements and wrapping the silverware.
Have a lovely Spring weekend!

I know this post was a while back – but I just have to say the yarn is really cool. With the desert setting it has an old western feel to it. The couple standing there by the wooden structure – are those dream catchers?
Oh, this is different, but really cute. I like it a lot
I’m a knitter, too

Thanks, Heather! I adore the party – the yarn is a little plus! Such a clever use.
