Serving Set

Labels: , , - Friday, April 16, 2010

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!




Shower Numero Dos

Labels: - Wednesday, April 14, 2010

Hello everyone! I had to come by and post some pictures and updates from the shower that my work had for me today! I got some goodies from our Target registry, which I was surprised about! We got our lovely clock (which I think it in a picture below), some kitchen stuff including our stainless steel timer and our salt/pepper shakers, as well as some bathroom goodies such as our towels and shower curtain! I'm so thankful for the people I work with! And now, for my favorite part of a post....pictures!

Our First Shower

Labels: - Monday, April 12, 2010

I'm back with updates!

We had our first shower this weekend (hosted by FI's family) and we got a ton of great things for our house (many things for our kitchen)! Here are a few of the gifts we received:

- 4 place settings (and 6 glasses to match!)
- Paula Dean pots & pans (that are AQUA!)
- Electric Griddle
- Pyrex dishes with carrying case
- Lots of different items for our kitchen (measuring cups and spoons, cooking utensils, dawn dishwashing liquid, hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper, etc, etc.)

We're very thankful for everything we received and we absolutely CAN NOT wait to use these in our new house! :) I have pictures to share, of course!!


Insulated

Labels: - Thursday, April 08, 2010

My wonderful FI and brother worked at the house yesterday! :) They stuffed insulation all day and got it all put in. FI's dad has most of the plumbing done, only our .5 bath left to finish. So, I'm sure you can guess was comes next....hanging sheet rock! Woo-hoo! Once the sheet rock goes up we can start with everything else: light fixtures, inside doors, painting...you know all the little stuff. :) Our house may be ready to move into right after the wedding after all!

I'm thankful to God for the small things too!

This one is for my sister...

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.
