White Wednesday...My First!

I just joined White Wednesday a couple of weeks ago,
but due to a death in the family,
this is the first White Wednesday post I've done!
I'm so excited to be a part of this wonderful weekly tradition!
For my first White Wednesday,
 I'd like to share a couple of my favorite pieces.

The first is my daughter's "kitchen".

I purchased this adorable vintage child-size kitchen cupboard
from my friend, Beth at Chic Junque
inside of The Barn in Castle Rock, CO.
I got it for a steal because she was wanting to get rid of it!
My little Bailey uses it everyday and
it's a nice vintage touch to the corner of my own kitchen.

I'd also like to share with you my mother's wedding dress.

The lace and beading details on this dress are GORGEOUS!
The photo can't do it justice.
My mom wore this dress when she married my father in 1974 (?).
I have her wedding photo album and
she looked so beautiful in this dress!
She saved this dress for me over the years
in case I wanted to wear it for my own wedding.
Unfortunately, the moths had their fun with it,
so she created me a special satin, padded hanger
using some of the lace and detailing
to hang my own wedding dress on.

I hope that you all enjoy the rest of your week!
Thanksgiving is almost here!
I hope it hurries up, I'm STARVING!!!

  8. Hi Destiny, Thank you so much for stopping in and your kind comments at my place.
    I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw your daughters kitchen cabinet...I have my mothers from when she was a child, one her father made for her, and with the exception that yours is painted white they look just alike! Love the wedding dress too! Will be following along ~ take care
