Things I Like: Baker’s Twine

I don’t know of many bakeries who actually still wrap their goodies in that red and white twine anymore, but wouldn’t it be just wonderful if more of them did? I mean, it’s just so lovely.

But hey, why do bakers get all the fun? How about some wedding uses too!

Ok, and I know it’s just plain ol’ twine, but I love the mix of the twine and wax seals.

Surprised face that (knower-of-all-things-beautiful) Kathryn at Snippet & Ink has already thought of this idea…

Unfortunately, I’m totally not very creative and can’t think of as many fun wedding uses for baker’s twine as it deserves. Anyone have any other fun ideas?

we heart your comments!

Love these too! RT @amiatEAD New on EAD Weddings: Things I Like: Baker’s Twine http://bit.ly/bDq70

Baker’s twine is having such a moment right now… so vintage-y and perfect for Christmas. I love the invitation tied together with twine, via 100 Layer Cake. It can be a bit tough to find sometimes, but I did notice that Iomoi has theirs on clearance, so I’ll probably try and nab a few before they’re gone! http://iomoi.stores.yahoo.net/salesection.html

I recently went on a NYC food tour of Greenwich Village and Rocco’s Pastry Shop wrapped our goodies in red & white twine! http://www.andunlimited.com/magazine-monday-greenwich-village-food-tour/

We used green and white baker’s twine for our invites. A great way to incorporate it would be to wrap it around vases to completely cover them.

The baker’s twine really adds a nice touch. I love when simple little things really take something over the top and make it unique. Bravo!

whats not to love? so charming.
