After being asked to design a wedding inspiration board based around a Christmas ornament, I immediately turned to Anthropologie. They have an eclectic assortment of ornaments (that I constantly covet) and I knew I’d be inspired. I sorted through the various deer, owls, mushrooms, and stars and settled on a carnival ornament that reminds me of all things Moroccan, gypsy, hippie, and whimsical: The One-of-a-Kind Carnival Bird.
I liked the idea of a wedding decorated in saturated jewel-toned colors, which this ornament makes me think of (even though it’s grey). So, I went to Polyvore and tried my best.
From top left, clockwise. Row 1: Flowers (instyleweddings), Tree (oncewed), Bangles (mymarrakesh), Lantern (oncewed); Row 2: Hair flower (oncewed), Flower girl wreath (theknot), Thread and pitcher (oncewed); Row 3: Lounge (kissevents), Flowers (oncewed), Felt bird (reformschool)
So, what do you think of my ornament-inspired board?
I love all the jewel tones together. And those blue drapes against the pink windows are so pretty.
I love it, CB! I can’t tell you how long I held out hope for having a lounge area like that at our reception.
Oh I love the jewel tones! I feel like they glam-up any space!
Love it! Jewel tones rock my socks off, and I love Moroccan home decor, so I’d say you nailed it!
How did I not see this before? I’m waaaay into this Moroccan wedding theme.

I speak Italian and love pasta. My real passion is the outdoors, though. When I'm not at work, I'm snowboarding, hiking with my two dogs, mountain biking, surfing, cross-country-skiing, or boating New Mexico's rivers. Despite my boyish love for adventure, I'm a girly-girl at heart and am overly-excited to pull off the romantic, vintage-inspired, country wedding of my dreams.
