Computer down

I just want to let you know that my computer crashed. Don’t worry, my files are safe and the posts will still keep coming. But I may not be able to work on any designs including templates until I get my computer fully up and running again, hopefully by Wednesday morning. I am so sorry for the inconvenience.

Centerpieces: Jars, Cans, and Potted Plants

I don’t want to spend much on our rehearsal dinner. But I still want our table to be pretty. So after scouring the internet for beautiful centerpieces, I found recycled mason jars and cans. They’re beautiful and free (from my own collection)!

Mason Jars

Then I saw these pretty potted plants.  They’re eco-friendly, people can take them home and they last for weeks, if not months.  They can also be more affordable than freshly-cut flowers.

Which type of centerpiece do you prefer?

If only…

If only I just started planning my wedding and I haven’t picked out my colors yet, the colors in this inspiration board by Ami of Elizabeth Anne Designs will definitely be my colors.  I went to Elizabeth Anne Designs blog for my daily visit and saw this beautiful board.  It was love at first sight. It would be perfect for a seaside wedding.

Beach House: Malibu Cape Cod

Now that I’m about to embark on a new journey, a journey with the love of my life, I can’t help but rediscover my dreams.  Dreams not of white picket fences, but the turquoise ocean.

And here’s my first dream house find.  With all the Viking appliances, John was in-love.

DIY: Drop Spine Box

I love decorative boxes. They’re great to keep little stuff in like photos, little trinkets, letters, etc. So I set out to find DIY instructions to create them and I found a great video from The Scrapbook Lounge via Elizabeth Anne Designs.

I just don’t do a project just because. I’m doing it actually for the wedding. Well, I’m not gonna say what it is for yet. Just stay tuned :) .

Real Inspiration: Sea, Sand and Sunset

The feeling of sand between your toes, the sound of the waves, the flutter created by the wind, the playful color of the sunset reflected by the sea… Alexander and Josh’s wedding… these are why I love beach weddings.  Alexander and Josh’s wedding is an absolute inspiration.  Don’t you just love the sunset?  And all the beautiful things about the wedding including the handsome couple were wonderfully captured on (digital) film by Vue Photography.
