Made For Each Other..because some people simply just are.

2014 has been a busy one for us here at Vintage Twee however we never let a year go by without a new addition to our range! Our brand new 'Made For Each Other' collection is full of vintage handmade charm and is perfect for those couples who, well, simply just are.

The complete Made For Each Other range

Inspired by our love for that 'just crafted' feel, the range contains unique Save the Date cards, invitations, place settings, table names and menus which have been designed to create a feeling of vintage romance and affection through the use of a dusty pink, ivory and cream colour scheme.

The items feature a selection of handmade style embellishments such as crochet lace, unique tape measure ribbon, silken thread and cute buttons for a traditional and nostalgic feel.

Save The Date Postcards
The Save the Date postcards feature a vintage image of a cotton bobbin reel to illustrate the hand crafted theme. They are also printed with a 'made for each other' stamp, as are the invitations which feature these words on an adorable card bobbin tag wrapped in lace and attached to the bundle.

Card bobbin place setting tags
Wooden bobbin place settings



















There two different types of place settings to choose from so you are spoilt for choice! Choose between the beautiful card bobbin tags printed with your guests name or opt for the wooden bobbins which also make ideal favours as your guests can take these away as a keepsake from your special occasion. These are also a cute addition for place settings at baby or bridal showers!

The table names have been created in the shape of a card bobbin and have a length of silken thread for you to attach to your table centrepiece. Why not recycle some vintage sewing machines to really enhance the 'made for each other' theme! The menus have been created from a dusty rose and ivory cardstock with crochet lace, button and tape measure ribbon embellishment. They are free standing so you can place these around the table for your guests to read!

Lillian and Fredrick, 06 August 1933
We would like to pay special thanks to Lynn who was kind enough to lend us this beautiful Singer sewing machine which belonged to her nana Lillian in 1933. The machine was given to her as an engagement present from her husband Fredrick which led Lillian to believe that he just wanted to marry her so she could mend all his clothes! He was reminded of this throughout their marriage though he did make up for this with a lovely engagement ring which has now been passed down to Lynn. Thank you to Lynn and her mum for allowing us to capture the vintage romance of that era!
