Tin Can DIY Wedding Ideas | DIY Wedding Photographer

January 30, 2013
PinExt Tin Can DIY Wedding Ideas | DIY Wedding Photographer

I have a thing for seeing value in stuff…all kinds of stuff. You know…like old nasty china cabinets on the side of the road…with a “FREE” sign on it. It was dark, ugly and totally 80′s. I knew that if I could just get my hands on it…and convince my husband to pick it up for me in his truck…there was something beautiful under all that nastiness. I slapped some white paint on it, put a clothes rod inside and boom…it was a new closet for  my baby (who is 9 now!!). We still have this piece and are always get asked where we got it! Uh….on the side of the road??? :)

Anyway!! Back to DIY Stuff! I love the idea of saving your tin cans (from taco soup I have about 6 cans!) and then turning them into something beautiful…for your wedding or for your house!

Here are some of my very favorite Tin Can DIY Wedding Ideas that I found on Pinterest!

1. DIY Hanging Tin Can Back Drop: Using the same flower to fill each can unifies the look and makes it look put together…even though these were literally saved from going into the garbage can. They look so elevated and sparkly in these images!

Here is another example of hanging tin cans. these ones have all white flowers and a brown ribbon added for some extra color.

3. I love these copper color painted Tin Cans. You could literally do this in any metal color…Gold, Matte Silver, Copper. …or whatever other color you please!

4. Tin Cans With Lace and ribbon. You could use whatever matches your wedding (or house, for that matter) They bring a relaxed, but still put  together feel to the centerpiece. I think I may just steal this Idea for a summer evening dinner party! I love these!!

5. Painted Tin Can Vases: Same tin cans…just painted! Just another way to bring color to your wedding reception tables.

6. Stripped Painted Tin Can: All you need to do to get this graphic and modern look to your tin cans is wrap a piece of painter’s tape around the can before painting it. You could get different widths of  tape for variety.

7.  Bedazzled Tin Cans: I love the idea of playing up the sparkle of these tin cans by adding some pearls  and jewels to the  outside of these. Add a little Glam to your DIY.

8. Rope covered Tin Cans: Here’s a Nautical twist to the TIn Can vase….and it couldnt be more easy, just wrap  rope around it and secure with hot glue. I love the way it looks with plain white hydrangeas.

9. Here is another easy take on the tin can…just cover with a birch bark! I love the way these look with the bright green mums!

10. Mini Herb Garden Favors! This one is a perfect idea for foodie brides! I love the idea of doing a magnetic paint on the wall and using this for a visual back drop before guest take them away!  Love it!

Rustic Outdoor Engagement Session | Hurley is a good pup

January 9, 2013
PinExt Rustic Outdoor Engagement Session | Hurley is a good pup

Over the course of the almost 10 years that I’ve been photographing weddings (sheesh…am I even old enough for that???)…I’ve grown to be a dog lover. yep. I said it. If you would have told me that 5 years ago…I wouldn’t have believed it! I think part of it…is that I’ve really seen the personalities of dogs and I love relationships…even those between humans and animals.

I had such a fun time with Kelsey and Andrew…and Hurley. Hurley was such a well behaved dog…he sniffed, explored and checked things out while we shot…then came in for his close up. My favorite part was when Andrew snuggled up with Kelsey, Hurley got jealous!! It was hilarious. He was sweet and I so enjoyed shooting him!! Oh…and Kelsey and Andrew too. :) I can’t wait for their wedding at Hidden Meadows in June!

DIY Wedding ideas | Spray Paint

PinExt DIY Wedding ideas | Spray Paint
I have a love affair with a few things in life…my husband, the goodwill and spray paint. If you ask my husband what
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
my spray
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
paint of  choice…see below, Krylon Blue Ocean Breeze. I’ve painted about 10 huge frames, a side table, countless
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
chairs,  a night
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
stand and whatever else catches my eye. I have a can or two of this spray paint on my garage shelf at all times…just
 
 
 
 
 
 
in case
 
 
 
 
 
 
something calls out to me that it needs to have a new turquoise life. :)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
One of my favorite things about Spray paint is that you can transform just about anything, in a matter of minutes,
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
with no clean
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
up!  All though its not necessarily the most cost effective, it is perfect for someone like me who likes to multi task
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
while  still
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
adding some turquoise to your life.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I love Pinterest because I’ve found so many great ideas of things I can spray paint….I see things in a whole new light!

Here are a few of some of my very favorite Pinterest inspired DIY Spray Paint Wedding ideas!
1. Start saving those wine, beer and liquor bottles and start spraying. A unifying color will bring them all together, then add single
stems of one color of   flower…and bam! You’ve got some amazing center pieces!

2. I love the idea of spray painting good old mason jars for flowers. You can pick these up at your local hardware store, or even better…the goodwill for about 20 cents each! Adding varying shapes and sizes will add visual interest.

5. Spray painting branches can either add a pop of color, or in a monochromatic palette it adds texture and height to your centerpiece.

       6. I love the idea of spray painting dollar store glasses,  funny faces or mustaches to give to your guests. Use them for table settings and it would be amazing in photos!

7. I want these huge letters for my house! Cut big letters out of  foam core , spray paint, add lights and  you’ve got  a great feature for the walls at your wedding day.

8. DIY Chalk board Menu Signs: These are so cute…and so stinking easy to make! All you need to do is find some great mirror s or frames, take out the middle and spray with chalk board spray paint (YES!! They have this!! Its so stinking easy too!!) , then spray the frames a color that matches your wedding. I love that you can use these  all around your house when you are done using them for your wedding.

9. DIY Chalkboard Tin Table Numbers: Start collecting tins from the goodwill or garage sales and start spray painting! These would be super cute gift boxes for bridesmaids as well!

10.  DIY Spray Painted Letters: Just another thing you can do to pick up at Hobby Lobby and spray paint in gold, silver or a color that goes with your theme…and these would be super cute on your mantle after the wedding. I have just a few E’s floating around my house.

Somebody that I used to know | Starring, directed by and produced by: Estelle Eylander

One of my favorite things to do as a kid was video tape people…with one of those huge, over the shoulder video machines, and at all the family events…this would be my job. We got it when I was in the 8th grade and I was hooked! Whenever I had friends over…we brought it out and went to town.

Now with my fabulous Canon Mark 11, I can capture video that is super high quality…but it doesn’t have to be at a wedding….it can just be at home being dorky.  Its a fun way to capture families, or kiddos being their crazy selves.  If you haven’t seen our other family music video, view it below!

As Estelle was directing me through the shoot, her creativity seriously amazed me. She knew just what shots she wanted and scenes she wanted to include. I love that she thought of using her cat and chickens! So funny! My heart was so full of joy as I watched her blossom and find something that she loves to do and is talented at. I so enjoyed the hrs it took to edit this music video to get it to what her creative direction was.

 

 

I know my daughter is like me when… from Kaylee Eylander on Vimeo.
