5 days to go :)

Here go my updates:

2) finished up our programs Friday afternoon/evening



3) finally finished the ring bearer pillow Saturday morning


4) finished up the escort card display last night

5) started separating everything into ceremony/reception totes/boxes for delivery on Friday morning

6) Bought all the plates, cups, and silverware at Sam's this weekend. 
7) printed the vellum for memory candles and attached them to glass vases (forgot to take a picture before I packed them up).
8) I finished up the pomanders today as well...but I didn't take a picture of them either!
9) Printed the labels for our centerpieces
10) I also made the guestbook sign

PICTURES....Finally

I decided since I can't ever stop at home long enough to show you some pictures that I'd just bring my camera to work and add them to the blog before everything gets so busy!

We'll start with the ring bearer pillow flower. I bought it at Hobby Lobby (50% $1.47) and decided to try and tea dye it. It worked perfectly! Here is the flower that will be added to the ring bearers pillow in the next couple of days:

Here's the garter that I bought from a fellow knottie that didn't use it. It was white & boring when it arrived so I decided to srpuce it up a little! This will stand in as my something blue (along with my flowers). This isn't a very good picture showing the true color but you get the point. I used Dylon Bahama Mama dye to make this beauty!

I have pictures from my 'final fitting' but I can't share them...FI would see. I'll share them after the wedding :)

And lastly, I have pictures from my bachelorette party!
Meet my sister & MOH, S!
Meet my childhood friend & bridesmaid, A.
Meet me...the bride :)
Meet my childhood friend and bridesmaid, Lail, trying to show me how to work that lingerie!
And here's Lail in her normal state :)
Meet my childhood friend and bridesmaid, Lis.
And this is my high school friend and attendant, aMa.
My other attendant (Mia) wasn't able to make the party because she was sick...SHE'S PREGNANT and we're so excited for her & her husband!

Now that I've finally showed you all the pictures from my camera I can stop feeling guilty for not having good updates with pictures :) FI is going to be painting the house today, I'm pretty sure...so hopefully I'll have pictures of our newly built (the inside at least) house with some color/personality to it! :)

Paper Progress

Here we go. 
I finished the escort cards this evening.


I also am still in the process of printing programs, but I printed all of the first and last pages. Next step, print the inside pages and assemble!

I bought the flower to go on the ring bearer pillow and will be dying it soon (with tea/coffee, I hope) to make it ivory. 

I bought a garter and some bahama blue dye to make it my something blue. 

Bought scrapbook paper to use as our 'guest book' (stole the idea from my sister-in-law).

The labels for the centerpieces came so I need to design them and get them printed.


Tablecloths for Reception and tulle for the aisle came today.
Progress...it feels so good! :)

I have wedding project updates for everyone!

I began working on my cake server set; I'm stringing beads onto fishing line to wrap around the handles. I've completed one of the two. Here it is just before I finished it up:

I'm getting ready to start on the ring bearer pillow, so I should (hopefully) have pictures of it tonight. EDIT: Here are the pictures of the mostly finished product. Now I just have to add some pretty ribbon!


Haha...I wouldn't let Daisy in the chair with me while I was stuffing the pillow, so she just crawled up in the basket of clothes by my feet and took a nap! :)

I've finished up separating all of the candies for the favors (I'll post pics later!).
EDIT: Here is a picture of my favors all zipped up tight in a baggie so they stay fresh!

I finished up making all of the tulle poofs (through step 2 - ready to be hung). I stopped putting the fishing line through them because they were getting tangled. We'll save that part and the fluffing for the week or two before the wedding. EDIT: Here are the pictures of my tulle poofs (some finished, some unfinished).

I think that's all for now. I'll bring you pictures this evening!

I feel like sharing a helpful (to me anyway) blog today! Visit here for craft store coupons! It's always nice to have a quick link to visit to get all the current craft store coupons for a quick trip to pick up something wedding related.
