You'll soon find out why!!!      BUT ... and here is the HUGE but... if your not crafty or artsy... this sucker is priced at ... (yeah sit down first)... $125.00 on Etsy.com .... um yeah soo totally thanks for the idea!! but no thanks!

love this idea!! I found another tree with this same concept a little while ago and told my mother I was going to do this and she said "EWWW so people go get their nails done then stick their finger in ink? Yeah right." So basicly she was saying she wouldn't want to stick her finger in ink... but im thinking washable ink/paints with wipies sitting right next to it (what can i say im a mother =)



this idea on http://www.paigeoneevents.com/2010/07/alternative-guest-book-ideas/
is really really cute... but im thinking OMGOSH what a mess... way too many individual pieces.


                   

very cute idea... going back to my pebble me perfect post... with the escort cards... for my wedding though i just think that would be wayyy to many rocks going around u know lol.



do really love this idea.... jigsaw pieces everyone can sign on.... dont know u could double side frame it and get your engagement pic printed on the other side or just use any puzzle and only frame signed sides!




LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS.... hehe do u see the little bride and groom birdies!!! TOTALLY DOING THIS!!!! <3 <3 <3

Pebble me Perfect!



How beautiful for a summer wedding and extremely inexpensive and easy!!!

    So use pebbles (and how fun as a little adventure with you and your fiance/ bridal party to go hunting for the perfect pebbles!!) as escort cards. Make a beautiful display on a table at the hall's entrance. Names displayed on the top of the pebble and the table number on the bottom of the pebble! or you could use them as placecards and already have them at each table setting. And if you are using them as placecards and would really like to trim costs... why not simply use these as favors! Maybe put       SWL              on the back
 instead of the table number.                                         August 17, 2013     

  i got this idea from:
http://www.weddingbee.com/2009/09/07/seating-card-inspiration/
   there are other escort card ideas on that post... go check it out!

Really!!! cud gardening get any girlier?!?




okay totally not what i am going to be using... but OMGOSH how awesome these would be in my house!!! And they look pretty simple to make! rip the soles off of ur shoes and shove dirt in it!... i am however totally obsessed with wearing stillettos... so maybe not such a great idea.

Okay, here we go. First off. I AM SO SORRY if you choose to follow this blog. I am a tad bit crazy, completely unfocused, say lol wayyy too much, add extra letters for all emphasis, and yeah completely new to this blog world everyone raves about. If i have kept you this long.. wow, we might actually get along!! YEAH. So let me tell you a little bit about myself and where I plan to take this blog. 

    I have been with my wonderful, amazing, and absolutely gorgeous fiance for about 6 1/2 years. However, we JUST got engaged, February 5, 2011, to be exact. He's very skeptical of marriage, verses me... who's been DREAMING of her wedding day for decades =)  I guess I finally convinced him!!!! (well we will see... he still hasn't committed to a date yet =(.  But mark my words (okay so im really just praying and praying really hard here... but im thinking August 17, 2013!!!

   So the focus of this blog will be the journey through my preparations of my "said" August 17, 2013, wedding with almost everything being DIY!!! well thats the plans at least. And what isn't done by yours truly will be purchased at alarmingly great prices!!! Like my wedding dress... which I plan to buy off of ... YUP ... EBAY!! no seriously! It is custom made!!! (in china, probably by a 7 year old, but... everyone has to make a living right?   ... i know i know really mean right =/ )

   Okay well here goes... finished with my first blog post and i feel like im on top of the world!! Now sit back and watch me crash... this should be a pretty fun ride (for you at least :-p)
