Green Friday: Etsy Seller Lovliday
Written by Sara on March 19, 2010 – 9:10 am -J and I had a difficult time determining what type of guestbook we wanted at our wedding. With the multitude of creative ideas available in the blogosphere, we were often torn between a traditional guestbook scroll, this tree stump idea from Etsy seller The Wedding Perch, and utilizing a vintage typewriter for our guests to type out their well-wishes for us.
However, when we stumbled upon Etsy seller Lovliday and her large tree guestbook, we knew that we finally found our guestbook!
Take a look:
To us, the tree fits so well within our theme of nature-inspired beauty! The concept behind the guestbook is this: we make stamp pads available for our guests, and they press their thumb into the ink and then place it firmly upon the 18×24 canvas print of the tree. Guests then simply sign their name underneath their thumbprint, and they’ve officially signed our guestbook!
We had Jessie over at Lovliday customize the coloring of the tree file for us according to our wedding colors, and it turned out wonderfully! Plus, she offered this custom colorization service at no extra charge.
This tree guestbook is also perfect for the DIY bride on a budget; Jessie offers her unique guestbook both in printed form and as a PDF file, so for a meager charge, you can send the file to your local printer to be printed on 18×24 canvas!
We plan to frame our guestbook after the wedding and hang it on our wall as a constant reminder of our wedding day and all of the people that took part in our special day. Big thanks to Lovliday for providing such a unique and beautiful guestbook!
