My look

Ok, I wasn't sure if I wanted to post this. I sent photos to family and friends...but I just can't seem to get enough. So here is my wedding day hair and make up look. My hair is very curly so the stylist bless her, re-curled my whole head! Took forever but I love the outcome.

grrrr....

Ok, new frustration. The invitiation pockets do not want to stay closed and the glue I am using with the ribbon to keep the pocket closed (aka belly band) is not sticking. I ran out of glue tonight so I will be picking up a couple kinds tomorrow to try. Currently I am literally squishing the pockets by weight of a heavy book to flatten and help the ribbon stay adheared. Oh the joy of crafting!

I was working on the green squares

And here is Ryan helping me out!!

Ryan's mom came over to help too!

Aisle Runner

Ok, so I was not a fan of aisle runners until I found that brides were painting on their wedding logo's to help personalize their day. I had worked hard on creating our wedding log and I thought "Perfect! a cheap way to personalize and get our logo included in yet another area of our wedding". So I found the perfect runner, bought the paint and got to work. It was tough and tedious, but I am happy with it in the end. Our aisle is really a deck and isn't very long but I think this will look very nice.

A few things

So a bride really needs a purse for the wedding day! She won't have enough to carry with her flowers, heels, poofy dress, and oh yeah all the emotion of the day! Right??...

This is what I tell myself...but isn't she so pretty?! My shoes will match once I find them

Oh, and check out the damask liner!!!

I found the purse on Etsy, Kelly "Simply Sage" had made one for another customer and posted it for purchase. This is when I see it and I HAD to have one, it was perfect. So I convo her and she makes me this amazing purse. She also was amazing and send me a swatch so I could match my shoes!!! I have fallen in love with Etsy. Such amazing crafts people and they really are some of the sweetest people!!!
