{Monday Moods at DIY Weddings} Hot Air Balloons

June 10, 2013 by Kimberly Jones

 Hot Air Balloons Wedding Postcards & Pretties

This high-flying inspiration board at Postcards & Pretties inspired me to search the web for more weddings with a hot air balloon motif. I love the vivid poppy red paired with soft blue in this board. Very striking!

Get sweet inspiration for a dessert table like this beauty featured on the Amy Atlas blog that sports a travel theme with hot air balloon decor and treats. This entire post is filled with gorgeous details you must see!

Hot Air Balloon Wedding Centerpieces via Love & Lavender

I’m swooning over these pretty-in-pink hot air balloon centerpieces featured at Love & Lavender! This celebration had the theme “the sky’s the limit” and was held on the hotel’s roof top. You’ll enjoy reading more about this lovely wedding here.

Hot Air Balloon Wedding Invitations via Green Cherry Factory

Need some wedding invitations with hot air flair? A simple search on Etsy yielded 125 options for you to peruse! The print-it-yourself suite from Green Cherry Factory shown above caught my eye immediately! I love the vintage vibe and the soft mint sky background. But there are many beautiful options to consider in a variety of styles and colors in the Etsy Gallery.

Etsy Spotlight – The Quilted Jacket You’ll Want to Make and Wear All Year

Welcome back to our Sunday Etsy Spotlight Series, where we bring you the best handmade inspiration from creative Etsy sellers across the globe. At CraftGossip.com, we love supporting small businesses, and this weekly spotlight is our way of helping indie pattern designers get the attention they deserve—while giving you fresh DIY motivation every week.

This week’s feature? The stunning Clover Quilted Jacket Sewing Pattern—a cozy-chic staple that belongs in every handmade wardrobe.

You’ve seen quilted jackets trending everywhere from high-end boutiques to farmer’s markets, and now you can make your very own. The Clover Quilted Jacket has that perfect blend of structured warmth and effortless style.

It’s the kind of garment that looks like you bought it from an expensive slow-fashion brand—but feels even better because you made it yourself.

What we love about this pattern is how approachable it is. Whether you’re already deep into your garment-sewing era or just ready to venture beyond tote bags and pouches, this jacket is a satisfying project. It’s a straightforward, step-by-step process with enough visual flair to make it fun.

And the best part? That quilted texture means you can use up your favorite scraps or even repurpose an old quilt for a totally one-of-a-kind look.

Make it with florals for a romantic cottagecore vibe, or try solids in linen or canvas for a modern, minimalist touch. This jacket is versatile enough to throw over dresses, jeans, even cozy lounge sets. It’s not just a sewing project—it’s a wardrobe essential.

Plus, the drop shoulders and simple collar give it a relaxed feel without sacrificing shape. It’s put-together comfort, and who doesn’t need more of that?

Here at CraftGossip, we believe in handmade—both in the projects we create and the creators we support. Etsy sellers are the heartbeat of the DIY community, pouring their time, energy, and creativity into patterns that help you bring beauty into your life.

This series is our way of celebrating them. Each Sunday, we shine a light on an Etsy pattern that deserves a spot on your sewing table—and in your closet.

If you’ve been dreaming of that one cozy jacket you can throw over anything, the Clover Quilted Jacket is the project to make next. Snag the pattern here on Etsy and start dreaming up your fabric combinations.

Tell us—would you go boho with patchwork or sleek with neutrals? Let’s chat in the comments!

 Join us next Sunday for another Etsy Spotlight. We’ll keep the indie love going—one amazing pattern at a time.
