Peacock Shoes For The Bride

For the uber peacock bride why not wear a pair of shoes decorated with Swarovski crystals in a peacock design with peacock feathers adorning the heel of each. Hopefully this link will be back up soon! Meanwhile to check on it here.
 
The crystals draw attention to the detailed design and add a 'something blue' to your wedding ensemble. For all my 'peacock brides' this is a must have!

Peacock Theme Wedding Centerpiece By Design Master

 
Looking for a centerpiece for your peacock theme wedding? How about this simple basket with hydrangeas and peacock feathers. Simple, but effective, this design catches the eye without overwhelming. So many peacock theme centerpieces are overwhelming, while this one is attractive, catches the eye, without the viewer wanting to say "OMG, whose idea was that?"
 
Visit Design Master's website for other ideas for centerpieces for your wedding as well as tutorials on how to make your own centerpieces. For the look above DM suggests:
  1.  use 24KT Pure Gold and spray it into a crumpled paper towel and wipe over leaf surface. Re-spray into cellophane as needed. Let dry. This creates a gilded look on the foliage.
  2. Spray hydrangeas with Glitter Gold. Let dry.

Just enough glitz without being too much.

Peacock Wedding? This May Be For You!


Are you a bride who is having a peacock themed wedding? I'm sure this incredible peacock purse would be perfect for the bride or her bridesmaids.

A good substitute for flowers is a fancy handbag--it lasts longer too! So give it some thought.  Not that you'll be able to afford a Judith Leiber clutch, but a copy is great. So think about it.  Perfect glitz and glam for your bridesmaids.

Peacock Feathers and Succulents


Like peacock feathers? Some brides have the panache to pull it off.  Planning on incorporating the peacock feathers into your wedding reception?  How about a placemat made out of feathers?  Just place them under your cupcake holder and they'll form a circular placemat.  Worried they'll get out of place? Glue them to a circular placemat and they'll stay perfectly in place.


Looking for another way to add peacock feathers to your wedding?  Just add them to your menu and place it on top of the napkins at each placesetting.  Trim the feathers so they fit the pocket at the bottom of your menu holder and it's a decorative but easy to make (and very DIY) projects. 


Want to add peacock coloring to your centperpieces? Choose a set of old leather bound books in graduated sizes and use two rectangular vases wrapped in blue and bronze ribbons at each end as bookends.  Simple, easy, and very DIY!


Add peacock colors and feathers to your bouquets but just a touch is enough.  Add ribbons to match the ribbons on your vases for the centerpieces above in bronze and peacock blue and you have a peacock theme wedding without overdoing it.
