A while ago I fell in love with the most beautiful rustic banner imaginable… behold the Bienvenue…
Beautiful no? But very French, and me and Mr. AZ, well we’re not French. Not even a little, not even Canadian. So we had a banner commissioned on Etsy in the exact same style only reading “Celebrate”. My pictures do it no justice so just imagine the above photograph reading “Celebrate”. I love using that word because it can instantly be used at Birthdays, Anniversaries, and Christmas! Love re-usable crafts.
This banner did more than become a banner we will hang at our Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding, it became inspiration for throwing in a little more rustic burlap into the mix for texture at a minimal price.
Just look at the beautiful texture it adds to those tables and the frayed edges- I adore it! Well I should say I adore the no-sewing-involved aspect. Anyway the more I looked for inspiration the more I adored burlap. But natural light burlap not the dark stuff that reminds me of potatoes.
So with it being 2 weeks until our wedding day, I have decided to take no-fuss, frayed edged, burlap runners to go with our beautiful “Celebrate” banner. What do you think of the emerging burlap trend? P.S. Isn’t this when people generally STOP adding things to their to-do lists? I feel like I have crazy amounts of energy at the moment. WEIRD.

Bunting is pretty much my favorite thing ever. :) I was throwing in last minute stuff as well...seriously, that mad energy will take you all the way to the wedding, and it's wonderful. :)
I really really love the burlap!! No seriously I do. I kinda wish I could steal it myself but it wouldn't go with our tables. And how can you not love the no-sew aspect?
The banner's really pretty too. It'll look great over the holidays too.
@Layla Yay! Glad to hear I get to keep this ridiculous energy till the Wedding!
@Dancy I know what you mean, I had an in depth convo about the rustic patio we are having our reception on and we decided as a unit it would be a lovely addition.
Uh oh-- I think you just added another "to buy" to my list! Really love it!
I kept adding more and more projects in the weeks before the wedding, even though I had SO MUCH to do. I don't think I slept for the two weeks prior.
That being said, I FULLY support this love, and I say go for it. :)
Love the texture!
