Mini Checks!

I went to the crafts stores after the bridal show, coupons in hand and ready to buy something! So we go in AC Moore and I see 50% of baskets now this sell will probably occur several times before my wedding next year but hey the baskets were cute, sturdy and I wanted to buy something so here are my bathroom baskets.

You can't see the color that great, but you get the jest of it. I got 2 for $6 not bad right! I will add monograms and notes to it later!

I also saw some feathered wreaths that I like for the outside of the ceremony doors. I would like these wreaths with monogram letter in the inside if that makes sense. Here are the pics of the wreath and monograms. For you to get a feel of my vision!

I like the idea if a branched pomander with flowers and feathers! Here are some balls made from branches. While I was there I saw these cute branch breaths that were small and could possible be used for a FG halo!

one a lighter note..

so will admit that i am the typical girl in the sense where when i get upset/angry/irritated/annoyed or any negative emotion, i shop.. so today i went to micheals and ac moore to look for stuff for the wedding. i was armed with my wallet, ipod and coupons and ready to spend some dough on anything. guess what i brought??? bathroom baskets they are plum i.e dark purple, cute and only $6.99 w/ 50% off so i paid a whopping $6 for both! i probably could have got them cheaper but i wanted to buy something. i will post a pic tomorrow b/c i feeling lazy.
i also saw some invites that have potential. unlike most brides, i could careless about them b/c most of the time they end up in the trash. so i want something that is cute and cheap. i'm going to have to think this one over because i don't know if i want a pocketfold, seal and send, belly band or what? they invite i saw was a pocketfold kit so it had all the bells and whistles and i can always add to it to spruce it up. i know i am far off but hey a good deal is here today and gone tomorrow! decisions...decisions...



i did make one decision...i decided that we are going to have pomander for our flower girls. i don't want them to drop petals b/c most of the time they don't anyway and our FGs are relatively young they will only be 3 yrs old. maybe we need to reconsider that one.. we will decide. here are some pics.. can you tell which one has silk flowers? i think i am going to DIY this project with artificial flowers b/c by the end of the night God will only know where they will end up.
