here are some other wedding treasures i've collected :o) i hand dyed my garter to look vintage and it turned out great, and i found the dress in chicago to wear to our brunch the day after the wedding. i looked high and low for some longer earrings that suited my taste and vintage feel and i finally found them at a cute little boutque in downtown stillwater! i had a minor heart attack when i looked at the price, but they were perfect so i just had to get them...and of course my dad has to spoil me so he bought them for me ;) i love them! the brooch is for my hair, and the pearl bracelet was my grandma's. i'm so excited to wear them because they really compliment my dress!

happy friday!

memorial weekend

finally updates and pictures from our productive memorial weekend! i went to my grandparents house for a visit and they helped me get a number of things ready for the wedding. Most of my favorite memories of my childhood come from my grandparents house, or time spent with them, so it's always a really good time when we get to see them. i hold them very close to my heart!

the pictures above are of us making chocolate brown centerpiece squares, a card box, and a table and planter my grandparents bought for us. my grandma says every home needs some green because it softens it...she's trying to pass on her very green thumb to me :o)
