Perfect for the people who seem to have everything.
Several months ago I thought why not have bridal items,
and added them to my Etsy shop. The original's had flattened forks
to serve as place card holders. Hmmm why not for the
first bite of wedding cake?
I sold a set and received the sweetest little note from the bride to be.
Then I thought well how often would the "bride and groom"
use the forks except; maybe on an anniversary,
and why not a set to use all the time if they preferred.
(Also available in "his and hers" and "yours and mine")
So, Mr. and Mrs. were introduced. Again, a few sets.
To say I was caught off guard when they were featured
on the Etsy Storque blog would be an understatement.
There I was on a day off still sitting in my p.j.s
sighing because the computer screen was jumping.....
Talk about falling off the chair when I opened
email and saw a lot of conversations. Finally, someone
told me what was going on and said they were
being featured in other places too.
told me what was going on and said they were
being featured in other places too.
I was, and am grateful.Very grateful.
I worry some days about not meeting those expectations.
It's exciting and scary at the same time. So, I will take the
advice of my loving family and sweet friends and enjoy the moment.
while legal minds sort out the details of protecting designs.
Newer beachy versions
This style fork set is currently not available.
Thought these would go nice with the glamorous
beach in vase from this post.

Well good morning! How absolutely lovely all of these vintage and beach-inspired objets d'art are! Thank you for coming to leave a message on my post and yes, the possibilities when one has imagination are quite impressive! I would so love to have a little space to decorate as such, to really keep the cost low of letting out those creative energies. Take advantage of that space you have when you get the inspiration.....have a splendid day! Anita
I love the Mr & Mrs, and bride & groom sets! Such a sweet idea!
Hi Rita, these are so lovely and I'm sure will be cherished by those who have them. What wonderful shower gifts they would make! Now who do I know that's getting married? No one right now, but I'm still waiting on my son.

Hi Rita
Well these are lovely!!! You are so clever and deserving of the attention .. I've always liked these engraved silverware. I think they would make fantastic place markers and the Mr & Mrs are so sweet!! although for me I would need Me & Me!!
Sorry I've been so absent.. my internet does not work so well in my new place... Take care and hope to be back soon.. xxx Julie
