• Hand-Painted Invitation: Antique Bird Cages

    The hand-painted Antique Bird Cages invite is a very cheerful, light-hearted take on the traditional lovebirds theme. What I love about the composition here is that there are two cages but both the birds decide to canoodle in the same cage together. It really is symbolic of relationships and marriage. Yes, each member of the relationship can happily stand alone in his/her own cage, but they choose to live and share their lives together.

    The Antique Bird Cages invitation can now be ordered under the Hand-Painted Weddings Shop Invitations tab.

  • Inspired by Antique Bird Cages continued

    As hinted in last week’s post I decided to build onto the Antique Bird Cage painting by adding pieces of the background and adding the two cute lovebirds. I’ve been very attracted to warm colors recently. I think it is the change in seasons and my love of autumn color palettes of oranges, warm purples, and browns.

    Be sure to come back tomorrow, as this painting will be made into a cheerful wedding invitation.

    Antique Bird Cages Invitation is now available in the Hand-Painted Weddings Invitation Shop.

    Hand-Painted Weddings is a HUGE fan of Pinterest! So far, I have pinned 785 pins…and counting. Clearly my “Watercolor” board takes up the majority of the pins I pin. Pinterest has been great for watercolor inspiration because most of the blogs I follow are design or wedding blogs, which sometimes do posts on watercolors, but not often. Pinterest is my go-to for watercolor inspiration.
