Board #249: Première danseuse
Here is the second inspiration board that I made a few months ago for Minted.com. I just adore the illustration that Rene Gruau did for Christian Dior, and really loved making this wedding board based around it.
Mood: feminine, modern
Palette: shades of gray, blush pink, orange, peach

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT! These boards make me want to change my color palette every day.
I wonder why every "grey" board gets cherry blossoms or dogwood blossoms? We're doing grey in the fall, so we're avoiding any springtime flower for decor. Any other ideas? Thanks!
jlsimon56 - Dusty miller, lamb's ears, succulents and leucadendron buds are all great ways to add gray to your flowers. For fall, dahlias and ranunculus are both lovely and available in a lot of different colors. Other flowers you can get in the fall are: hydrangea, cosmos, and some types of roses. I hope that's helpful!
So delicate, so lovely. This is like a ballerina bride's dream. I am enamored.
OMG I just changed my wedding colors...again!
Seriously, this is absolutely perfect for our venue. It's a renovated historic social club with pale slate grey walls and white trim, white curtains, white chairs, etc... We're having a springtime ceremony followed by a luncheon and dance.
Grey, silver, white, peach and pale pink. Romantic but not too girly.
I'm so excited about this palette!
I love this board!!
So pretty!!
Thanks for reposting it!
Kathryn, thanks for posting some ideas. I had thought ranunculus wouldn't be available, but I'm holding out! I love the lambs ear, too!
Miranda, where are you located - your venue sounds fabulous. I'd love to see pics online. Is there a website for it?
Our church has white-washed walls and painted grey woodwork. The reception site, another historic building, has peachy-pink walls with all sorts of colorful carvings. I'm so happy to see this board that pulls all that together!
beautiful
i think that this gap dress goes perfectly with this board and would make an awesome bridesmaid dress!! check it out: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=13658&pid=568975
