Ladders in your Barn Wedding

 
A ladder, some bell jars, wild flowers for a pop of color and you have a rustic and affordable centerpiece/chandelier! Imagine this above image with some LED tea lights or twinkle lights. String it with ribbon for a backdrop? I can't stop writing ideas down for this simple prop that can create a show stopper of a statement. Hey why not?! The possibilities are endless. These images show the many ways you can use a ladder in a photo shoot or for your event décor. Let Scout help you find the perfect industrial or farm fresh ladder for your next creative vision.

 
I love the idea of using them as a creative way to display photos and keepsakes or even for favors or place settings.

 
Scout will be taking a page from this decorating trend and using ladders in a upcoming photo shoot for props. Get inspired with everyday items and easy décor solutions.

"I do", Round Two

 
Saying "I do." for the second time can bring with it a lot of mixed emotions. Here at Scout we get you, and we mean that literally. Let your second wedding be that of utter pesonality, this time around you know what you are doing and you know what the most important part of a wedding should be! This time, take the reins and take charge. Don't be shy about celebrating. It's OK to register a second time, it's OK to have a shower. This is still a big moment in your life, and there is nothing wrong with honoring it and enjoying the moment. One of the best things you can do for your second wedding is to buck tradition and do things differently. Wear a dress in your favorite color, skip the white. Skip the lace and long train, and include a distinctive fashion element such as an incredible piece of heirloom jewelry. Replace the more traditional protocol such as garter and bouquet toss with a special presentation of the bouquet to an honored guest. And don't forget the decor that Scout Supply Co. can provide for you. Your party, intimate dinner or all out dance fest you as a couple create can be made possible and unique with Scout.

Translations

Grandma Rose would say what to do, what to do? I am sure many of you are wondering how all of these bits and pieces could work at your next event. You have a bunch of glass domes to rent out, what do you do with them? Well... How about some timeless family photos? Pictures of those couples in your family that have been together through thick and thin. Your inspirations, or pictures of family members that are no longer with you. Did you meet your mate on a trip? Do you have ticket stubs and relics that tell your story? The possibilities are endless. From succulents to colorful dioramas, Scout can help you with your vision no matter how complex or simple. No matter how epic of a love story or cheesy, here at Scout we listen to what you want. Let Scout help you translate your story to a visual representation of you. We know what to do.

Introducing the Owner of Scout Supply Co.

 
My name is Megan Gaworecki and I am the owner, curator, finder & gatherer obsessed with all things vintage, weathered and aged. I have always been a collector and a creator. One of my first collections consisted of vintage compacts I would collect from going to flea markets with my parents. Now my hoard consists of neon letters and cinema signs to vintage cameras and globes. As a child I would create friendship bracelets and jewelry and sell them instead of the typical lemonade stand. I have always used my hands and love to create even if it was just for me. Now I am an art teacher and get to do and make and inspire every day for a living. I never thought of sharing my collections with others but in joining the world of Pinterest and seeing the style of weddings and vignettes that were popular it peeked my interest. I remember what a hard time I had with planning and decorating my barn wedding in 2003 and after researching other vintage rental companies I decided to start here in Hudson. It is a bit intimidating starting a new business when you already have a full time job, not to mention a family but here I am trying and hopefully succeeding.  I am actively using my hands day in and day out. I always thought it was a curse that I enjoyed such a variety of media: painting, drawing, textiles, wood working, etc. I so envied other artists who had one focused area of interest. I know that running Scout will bring all of these elements together for me.
