Packing an order for a customer!

What is in these boxes?  Solid Colored Glass combinations, of course... custom pulled for each customer!  

Ready to be delivered...to stock the shelves and decorate the gift shops across the country for the 

2013 Holiday Season!

 

This year we had the privilege of working with many decorators and designers for some of the Holiday magazines you see on the shelves in the grocery stores, along with our new and seasoned customers!  Whitehurst LOVES working with everyone and shipping out these beautiful colors year round, but the push is on now for the Holidays!  Keep those orders coming...

 

Here are a few of the color combos that we have sent out so far this year....other colors that are popular include Purples, Yellows, Greens of all shades and Reds, of course.

It's Time for thinking up Gorgeous!

Holiday 2013

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is time to start up the thinking machine and decide on your color schemes for the holidays!  

Do you know what your colors are for this year!  The trends or "what's trending" seem to be picking a color scheme and placing it throughout your room or home.  Or, have many themes in different rooms.

For instance ~ 

Kitchen ~ maybe a black and white theme, or silver and grays.  Pair up 2 colors or different shades of one color.

Living Room ~ go with the colors of your furniture or your pillows and blankets.

 Create a Formal Tree for the Living Room and a Casual tree or Family Tree in the Family Room.

Bedroom ~ The kids need a decorated tree!  Follow the colors of their walls, or their favorite colors.   Purples, pinks, greens, blues and orange, etc.

Bathroom ~ every Bathroom needs a little extra ambiance and light.  Just a little tabletopper, perfect to light up in the corner for the guests to enjoy.

Porch ~ how about the Back Porch or the Front Vestibule?  Add a pop of color with a fun color scheme to welcome in the guests upon arrival.

And, don't forget about the Front Hall.  Tabletop version or full size.  Fun pop of colors here too will round off the colors from the living room and dining room.

 So there you go... start up the engines and on these rainy days, look around and see where you will put the "trees"....:)

For He's A Jolly Good Fellow...

Father's Day, a day when Dad's do whatever they want.... our Dad, my husband, chooses to play golf, and then, lay on the couch and watch golf.!?!?..  (not what I chose on Mother's Day)... but, according to my husband, "everyday is Mother's Day!".  Do you agree or disagree?

Anyway, here's to good ole Dad.. Happy Father's Day to you and all the Dad's in the world!

The Wedding Season is about to begin!!!!

Becoming a Fiance and planning a wedding  is a full time job in itself.  No one is quite prepared for the job ahead!

If ONLY I had all these resources WAY BACK WHEN...

Some great wedding sites and blogs I have come across include:

hiphostess.blogspot.com

greylikesweddings.com

etsywedding.blogspot.com

oncewed.com

And, there are a ton more!  Start with these and then on these sites, they follow other sites and everyone is sharing ideas, diy's and great tips to  getting through this new full-time job.  All to create that once in a lifetime fairy tale day!

Another great spot for ideas is Pinterest~you can start on our Spring/Summer board for Glass ornaments - www.pinterest.com/thewhitehurstco.  

Tons of ideas there and after you can google "weddings" in the search box and have access to TONS of pins.  Amazing the amount of talented people out there!

Here are a few images I pulled off my Pinterest page ~

Great idea to give as Hostess Gifts in a color scheme or in a variety of colors.  See www.christmaslightsetc.com for solid colored glass in tons of colors

Remember your night in a special way, to preserve the memories, from year to year....add a cork from the wine, some petals from your bouquet, or even cut into strips a copy of your wedding invitation, as seen below.

 Even if you ARE NOT the Bride... and, instead, a guest to this wonderful event, these are great ideas to pull together as a shower gift or wedding gift.

We recently put together a Wedding Collector's Box for a customer in Frost and Silvers.  We added an Oberfrankische German Glass ornament of a car, some tulle, and voila!

A beautiful gift to start the newleyweds off in style for their first Christmas!  
Create your own package with traditional colors and elegant colors or the colors of the wedding... 

Every newly married couple needs Christmas ornaments!

Enjoy the Wedding Season!

Best,

Kirsten
