blah.

I've been extremely uninspired lately. As you see from my lack of posting. The lack of inspiration has nothing to do with the amazing creativity that is out there on a daily basis, but rather events that have caused stress for me as of recently.  All will be A-okay but I've needed a break. But I'm back, i swear!

ring pillows

I swear at some point I'll actually have some original content for you, but right now I'm extremely uninspired and swamped at work! BUT, ring pillows are circulating the blog world lately, and this happens to be another one of my DIY projects. These three I happen to love! So romantic!

add it to the list

I really think I might need to stop reading Once Wed. They have too much of what I love and I find myself adding a new DIY project to my to-do list almost every week! 

Case in point, Laurie's Favor Bag Place Cards. Luckily this one isn't making my list much longer, as I was already looking for a cute way to incorporate the place cards & bags for a candy bar. Unfortunately the stamped table numbers won't work for us - we have 30 tables (scary I know, but the the antique tables only hold 6 people comfortably!) 

grosgrain

In my daily pursuit for creative inspiration, I came across this great blog - Grosgrain, produced by the extremely talented and craft Kathleen. While this strays a bit from my typical wedding jibber jabber, I couldn't help but drool over this shirt dress. It is particularly fabulous - and she's giving it away! Check it out here.

a charming wedding

Do you ever have ideas in your head that you think are somewhat brilliant and all your own until you come across them in this wonderful blogging universe of ours? Well that is what happened to me when I stumbled across this beautiful celebrity wedding on grey likes weddings (shot by the amazing Joy Marie) 

The variety of floral tableclothes, the escort card display, the wagon cake table - all variations of elements I plan to include in my own wedding. So here are some of the extremely charming vintage touchs that I find just delightful.
