Phoebe Fairytale - the latest in trends

Located right here in Calgary, Phoebe Fairytale combines fun, flirty and sophisticated while creating unique jewellery, lip gloss and hair accessories.

They personally handcraft custom, one of a kind pieces for every day, formal or bridal events. Using quality materials and their keen sense of style, Phoebe Fairytale custom accessories are both beautiful and romantic. Their feather and flower headpieces are a perfect complement to your wedding or bridesmaid dress without the high cost often associated with store-bought bridal head pieces.

Then there are their flower wristlet and anklets. They are a beautiful modern alternative to the traditional corsage and can be customized to match your wedding colours.

And if that wasn't enough for you they also create homemade lip balms - reminiscent of your favourite fairytale and perfect for staggette take-aways and bridesmaid favours. The classic namesake the "Fairytale Balm" is our dual purposes lavender scented balm - perfect for a night lip seal and moisturizing cuticle balm. There are a variety of other fairytale inspired balms: Goldilocks (lemon), Snow White (red apple) and Snow Queen (spearmint with a hint of shimmer), each has its own distinct aromatic oil and tint of color.

Making weddings and 'the every day' special - they look forward to creating a custom piece just for you. They can be reached at

Little packages of love

One of my favorite parts about going to weddings is seeing all the unique ways Brides and Grooms thank their guests for sharing their special day with them. Yes, that's right - the favors. We've moved away from little rounds of tulle filled with candy coated almonds to just about anything you can think of. Candy, popcorn, candles, CDs, home-made chocolates, salt and pepper shakers, and the list goes on and on. But half the fun of it can be the packaging it comes in!!

One of my favorite stores in the city is Creative Packaging, which I've blogged about before. But today I accidentally landed on The Container Store. Usually when I find these fun sites, they never seem to ship to Canada, so when I saw the little Canadian flag that said "now shipping to Canada" - you can only imagine how happy that made me!
One of my favorites is the Birch Veneer Wine Bottle Cylinder. What a unique way to present a host/hostess or a wedding guest with a bottle of wine. You could jazz it up with a monogram stamp or some colorful ribbon.

The Clear Handled Cases would be perfect to fill up with fun shades of OPI nail polish to present to all the ladies standing by your side as you plan your big day. Just think of how much fun it would be to be presented with a case full of fun colored nail polishes just in time for Spring and Summer!Then there are all the different shapes, sizes and colors that the Amac boxes come in. You can find the perfect shape and color to package that special gift for your guests!

I've posted just a few of my favorites, but check it out for yourself.
