Bridal Shower : Banner

After reading a blog post at indie fixx and a little push from Alethas blog post at pearls events I knew I just HAD to create my own banner for the bridal shower.

I used random fabrics that coordinated with our color 'scheme' and viola! Below is the banner in all its poorly photographed greatness.


Why can't I also have photography skills? Ugg. Point and shoot photos never do a project justice. I will be sure to capture the banner in action at the shower!

Bridal Shower : Invitation

I'm throwing a bridal shower for my future sister in law. The location is a cute space at a camp ground on a lake. For those of you who know the area its the Shelps 'Resort' on Pine lake. I will do my best to capture the elements the day of but I thought I would highlight some of my preparation for the shower.

DIY : Invitation
Here is a snap shot of the digital file. I will be capturing a shot of the invitation in the kraft paper envelope with the handmade custom liner!

Happy Anniversary to us

This year has been completely amazing. Who ever said the first year was the hardest?
I have not shared tons of OUR wedding photos on my blog so here are a few fun goodies in honor of our anniversary :)
Seriously, how could you not stay married to a man with a devilish smile like that?

My Peonies

Home Inspiration : Wall Decor

Sometimes I feel over whelmed thinking about kitchen renovations. Today I'm inspired by these plates collages. Wouldn't it be fab to have pieces of family china complement by other great pieces?

I found the first photo on this (new to me) blog - My Little Corner of the World. It lead me on a search to similar photos...

Inspiration : My poppies

All i have is a simple point and shoot camera. I think its about time to invest in something 'better'... although *toot too* (that was my own horn) I must say these are pretty fantastic (for me) for being taken with a point and shoot camera.
