For the Record, I LOVE Retro Soirees, Vintage Parties...

For those that have not caught on, I like to create an identifiable title starting with an R, S, V, & P to coincide with the theme, and this is no different! My Retro Soirees, Vintage Parties table idea came to me while driving home and listening to the radio!

I LOVE all things vintage and old records are no exception! I found a whole slew of records at a garage sale sold to me by a wonderful woman who listened to them when she was a girl! One of the best vintage finds is a total gem of person like this her - hope you like the table my fabulous elderly friend Lucretia! 

All the colored centers, the black rim,song titles,  just SO fab! So, I thought.... what if I used THAT for a charger plate in lieu of traditional saucers. Wa-la! You now have my newest addition to the RSVP family! I love the idea of using only records with love song titles for a funky fun wedding. Using clear glass plates you are able to see right through to the record while also giving it a glossy finish! How cool would this be for a party or wedding for a music lover - I know, so cool. 

I also incorporated vintage soda bottles (orange is my fave!) vintage glasses, and some super cool handmade felted wool decorative balls in the floral arrangement. Made by hand by DemarestDesigns they are super fun and eco friendly to boot! 

More pics to come soon!

Hope you enjoy as much as I do!
