Classic..Chic..Champagne - Check!! { BLACK and WHITE Wedding } // Wedding Day Prep (Vol. 8)



BOY, how I have missed the busy Wedding Season! I can't wait to get started on new orders for 2012. After getting through a crazy-short winded HOLIDAY season, I am just itching to get connected with new BRIDES and GROOMS who are looking for their super fun, unique, custom glassware to give to all of their loved ones. Just 2 weeks ago, one of my recent FIZZY BRIDES - Kristin, was lovely enough to send me a sweet email with feedback and wonderful snapshots of her wedding and my glassware.

Her photographer, Sara Jayne captured beautiful moments and had fun highlighting the custom champagne glasses. The angle here in this photo on the right from the bride's perspective is so sweet and artistic. You can feel all of the love, support and excitement that Kristin was able to receive on her special day with the women she choose to have around her.

Who doesn't love a CLASSIC "Black and White" themed wedding? Anything with color surrounding the nuetrals just POP and look stunning. You can see in the photo above that the bridesmaids had gorgeous matching black bracelets to accessorize their chic and simple look. The photos below show off the handsome groom and breathtaking bride as they smile with happiness! What a cute newlywed couple.





"Hi Bethany, - Thank you again for the awesome glasses,
they were amazing and all of my girls LOVED them!
I have attached the photos from our wedding!
I threw a couple of other fun ones in too.

Our photographer is Sara Jayne Photography
http://www.sara-jayne.com/
so if you use them for anything and
wouldn't mind giving her credit! :)

Thanks again for everything! You're the bomb!"

Even the awesome Wedding Blog: EMMALINE BRIDE... noticed these fun new glassware photos when I added them to a listing. So they wrote up a wonderful new blog feature "Cheers to Bridal Party Glasses They’ll Love!" the day before Christmas Eve!

Having a Wedding website support my artistic craft and love for custom gifts is the best! I wouldn't be where I am today without the wonderful couples out there getting married who enjoy my work and the incredible wedding gurus that want to spread the word about my Fizzy creations!

I'll admit, it's been a while since my last blog-post entry! In May, I had my very first Fitness Competition, I moved on June 1st and then once summer began I have been crazy busy with wedding orders and have not been able to catch up. Now summer is coming to an end and I am already "body-deep" in Fall Wedding orders. September is here and I thought I was prepared for the fall season, but now I've realized there is simply no clear way to truly "prepare" for the work that needs to be done.

I am painting about 100 glasses a week which pans out to be at least 20 glasses a day. Lately, the 20 glasses I paint each day turns out to be just ONE order for a Bride and Groom and their entire Bridal Party!

Are You Related To A Modern-Day {MARTHA STEWART}? Well, I AM! // Gift Guide (Vol. 2)


Do you know someone who
can bake a delicious cake, have a 
tidy and well-decorated home,
re-upholster his or her own furniture,
and paint antiques to look
like shabby-chic perfection?

I believe that most of us know a superwoman like this! A woman with the magic for creative thinking and artistic talents puts her in the "Martha Stewart" category, which is something to be proud of. Some women are gifted in decor or cooking or organizing, but a few out there were blessed with a couple of these gifts.

My sister, Heather, and I have been artistic and creative since we were very young. The artistic gene was definitely passed down from generation to generation. In our family history we have artists, seamstresses, furniture makers, carpenters, remodelers, and more. We watched our parents remodel and refurbish all of the time. One of my favorite projects they did was take a vintage dresser and make it into a sink vanity for our guest bathroom. They would envision things and then just go for it! Without a doubt, this gift stuck with Heather and I. I have had my painting career for almost 10 years now and Heather has now taken her love and gift for chic design to another level.



My siblings and I in 2002. Notice how my head tilts the same
 towards Heather just like the baby shot of us above.

Heather is now the proud mommy of beautiful Olivia Grace and married to her multi-talented husband, David Reed. Heather has lived in New York City for the last 10 years and recently moved with her adorable family to Nashville, Tennessee. While living in New York, my sister learned how to master the art of finding salvaged pieces for next to nothing and revamp them into lovely, shabby-chic, one-of-a-kind treasures. Stepping into the Reed home is like stepping into a Martha Stewart Magazine of a trendy, young, modern home decor article.

I went to visit my sister and her family in Nashville this January for a late Christmas. While Heather showed me around their home I kept saying to her, "You could totally market and sell these pieces on Etsy!" During my visit we made a strategic trip to a thrift store and just had a BALL looking for "chachkies" as she calls them for her to re-paint and sell. I had so much fun with my niece, Olivia, in the stroller that day! Right before I left for my flight back to Minnesota, I helped the Reed's open their Etsy storefront and took pictures for the first listing. Since then Heather has been busy painting and creating new items while David helps promote, package and ship. They have had more than 50 sales with exceptional feedback! I think things look like they are off to a great start and now two of the Nelson kids have Etsy businesses!

"I love my new job here of staying home
 with my beautiful baby girl while making
wonderful pieces for other peoples' homes!
Such a dream!" -Heather Reed (ReedLove)

P.S. I bought her that cute rainbow
