Band Together

This weekend was one with little progress house or wedding wise. We were busy with a bbq fundraiser at the fire department where my love works and then yesterday was his birthday and church. Needless to say, we did accomplish a few tasks!

House:
- FFIL finished the plumbing in our house so now we are ready to hang sheet rock. :) yay!

Wedding:
- I finished stringing and glueing on the beads to our serving set (see a seperate post about that here).
- I FINALLY got FI to go to the jewelry store to be sized for his band. We went ahead and purcahsed it Friday while we were there. Needless to say, it was MUCH more expensive than we thought it was going to be, but still half the price of my two bands.

Here is the site with full information about and I didn't get a real shot of the ring, but here is the stock photo from the makers site.


I do have to say that the ring we seen in the store was no where near this shiny; it's tungston carbide and has a lifetime warranty. I have to admit that I got giddy in the store when he decided which band he wanted :) Today marks 33 days until I marry my love!


This evening I'll be working on tissue paper flowers and deciding exactly how I'm going to do the programs. I have the template created, some blue & purple paper, but I'm not sure how/what I'm going to print them on. Hopefully I'll have more updates tomorrow!

Serving Set

Wow...I'm relieved to be finished with these! It wasn't that bad to string all the beads on the fishing wire, but it was a pain trying to get them on the serving set. Nonetheless, I completed the knife today and can wash and throw these things in a box and forget about them until May 22. Now I'll be working on tissue paper flowers to finish up the 8 pomanders I have to make! :)
EDIT: I forgot to mention, in case anyone was wondering) that the server set was bought from Ross (I think) by my mother who came across it one day and picked it up for me!




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!
