To make a long story shorter (a first for me:) let me just say when I first saw JABC buttons and pins I had suggested to Cecile that they would be lovely for hair bows and headbands. When Rachel was looking for a new creative outlet, Cecile shared the idea with her daughter. This was the beginning of 2 Martins In A Nest.
Below are photos of Rachel's creations for her upcoming wedding. She has really taken a small idea and given it life that is amazingly creative and fun.
This is her wedding bouquet. Isn't it incredible?
Here is a close up of just the top. I think it is just beautiful!
These headbands were for the brides maids.
(I hope my memory is serving me correctly....after all it has been 3 months...yikes:)
Just as I was writing to tell Cecile that I was getting my photos of Rachel's headbands and decorations ready to post she suggested I may want to wait a day or two. I wondered, hmmmm, why should I wait?
A day or so later this arrived in the mail:
Thank you Rachel for the beautiful headband. I think your creativity is amazing and I love use of the vintage buttons in your creations :) To contact 2 Martins In A Nest you can click here or e-mail 2MartinsInANest@gmail.com.
One very lucky IHAN blog reader will have the opportunity to own this fun headband from 2 Martins In A Nest. Leave a comment on this post and I will draw a winner on Thursday evening.
Oh yes....and a special thank you to my two models, Francis and Zachary.....excellent job!!
Smiles,
Kelly
What a good sport Zachary is! You'll have to keep that photo for his graduation or wedding!
ReplyDeleteSorry, but I don't think the headband is Zach's style at all - or mine either for that matter...so don't enter me! ha ha.
ReplyDeleteI sometimes feel like an old fuddy duddy by wearing headbands, but I hate to have my hair in my face. I'd look just great in one of Rachel's bands. Kathie L in Allentown
ReplyDeleteCute! I love the headbands!
ReplyDeleteHow cute are those headbands. They even look good on grown up girls.
ReplyDeleteThanks for announcing 2 Martins in A Nest. What great products they have created. Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteAnd I think it is very nice of Zach to help model for you. Although he does seem to have a smile that is questioning "what is mom up to now?".

Some people are just too, too clever! What a cute idea.
ReplyDeleteThanks for planting the seed for this new business Kelly. Tell Zachary that even Josh (the 2nd Martin)has been known to model a new headband for a moment or two. We tell him he is a good sport too!
ReplyDeleteWhat creativity and talent!! Love the headbands!! They look fantastic on everyone! (better on little girls) Thanks for the info!
ReplyDeleteOh my, yes, he's a good sport! I'd love to win the headband. So cute!
ReplyDeleteOh, that headband would look very good on my daughter. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteThe apple doesn't fall too far from that tree, what gorgeous flowers.
ReplyDeleteNo need for the headband but thanks, it is lovely..
