Watercolor Wedding Invitations
The Back-to-School Invitation is perfect for the couple that shares a profession as a teacher, or for a couple who met in school. This is a very playful interpretation of the Back-to-School theme. I would particularly recommend going with the Paper bag envelope for authenticity.
I’m on a roll this week…the Back-to-School Invitation is already available under the Hand-Painted Weddings Shop Invitations tab.
Have you ever wondered where the tradition of giving an apple to a teacher came from? I wonder if it is because apple are in season at the beginning of the school year. Or maybe it is because of the smart, health benefits of “eating an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Whatever the reason, I like it.
Cherishing a single piece of fruit is so simple and yet so charming. There is this scene in Little Women where Jo is peeling an orange as a treat at her desk on a snowy day, and that orange looks like the most decadent treat in the world. That is what I think about when I think of gifting an apple to a teacher at back-to-school time….the beauty of slowing down and savoring the exquisite taste of an apple in season.

In my other life, I work for a university and it is back-to-school time! Like most students, I can’t believe how fast the summer goes! My worlds collide as I do a back-to-school wedding theme this week.
A back-to-schoool wedding theme would be perfect for the teacher couple or the couple that met in school. A few other designers have done the back-t0-school theme so I wanted to do this one a little different….but I’m getting ahead of myself. First, I did an exploration of basic school supplies. I quite like getting detailed in my still life paintings, don’t I?!
Back to School Invitation is now available in the Hand-Painted Weddings Invitation Shop.
