Time to Bust out the Holiday Spirit!

I LOVE the holidays! They are such a great time of year. Everyone is so cheery and there's lots of exciting things going on. Oh, and don't forget about eggnog...What a strangely, delicious drink. Christmas is a great time to bust out some vintage touches. Whether you're setting a table or making decorations, vintage makes everything better.

I love old books and book pages. Here's a couple great ways to put those old dusty pages to use:

These sweet little tags would be great name cards, or you could shoot to achieve best wrapper status by putting these gems on your presents.

I've always really enjoyed monochromatic design schemes. White and silvers are such an elegant combination for the holidays. 

 Old shutters make for a great way to showcase all your Christmas cards. I never like to throw them away, so this is an intersting way to put them on display.

Mason jars have been all over the wedding decor scene. Here's another use for those multi-functional little guys.

It's time to bust out the holiday spirit and enjoy the season!

Joynoelle!

Recently Lime Canary had the opportunity to work with designer, Joy Teiken, the creative mind behind clothing label, Joynoelle. Her work is whimsical, vintage inspired, and beautiful...All the things we LOVE! We worked with an amazing team (Joy, Alyson Newquist Events, Flora Bella, Brandon Werth Photography, Chelsey Paul Designs, and Wintercraft) to transform the Grand Cafe from neighborhood dining spot to a 20th century parlor to showcase her 2012 Caged Bird Collection. Check out some pictures from the show!

Unveiled

Holy cats we can't believe it's already November! We had a great time this weekend at the Unveiled show! Unveiled is put on by the Wedding Guys, and debuted for the first time in Minneapolis. It's truly a bridal experience with tons of food, cake, venues, photographers, and much more to see.
