#125 Doily Decor

Yesterday got me thinking. Uh oh? Yes, uh oh is probably right, because what I was thinking is that it's been a while since I had a good doily fix.

What is it with me & doilies? 

Am I being selfish & indulgent by basking in my love for them? Well, yes.

Have I made it my mission in life to sway people in their hatred for them? Certainly.

Seriously, how could you resist when I bring you photos like these...

Convert yet? Almost? Don't worry lovelies, I won't give up...

How gorgeous is that slightly different take on the bunting using just the little pieces? I'm going to have a go at making some of that for sure. I also think that table runner is one of the best I have seen, the photography is pretty perfect too!

Well. That was enjoyable. For me anyway! Never mind though, I'll go back to suppressing my doily lust now...

#116 Wedding Projects

I love typewriters for many reasons, not the least of which is that type font plain just makes me happy.

I've found some good websites which have any font you could possibly dream of for your weddingy project needs, & I pulled a few strings so that they are free, just for you! I'm just that helpful... 

Ok ok, so they are always free for everyone. But it's the thought that counts right?

Might I recommend perusing the typewriter fonts? In all seriousness though, to quote Charles R. Swindoll 'The difference between something good & something great is attention to details." Choose the font that's perfect for you. The one that expresses something of your or your partners personality OR just because you love it. I'm not sure about wingdings though... It might be a little bit hard for your guests to read the invite that’s all… You know what I mean?

So here they are - dafont & fontspace

I hope they make your projects, your details, that little bit more brilltastic!

On the subject of projects, another super little find lately has been this decorative eco cotton tape from Cute Tape

This is one of those million project uses kinda things for sure.

(Even though I don't neeeeeed it, I'm so getting some. Who knows when it might be just the thing I need eh?!)

#95 Well Now.

If that doesn't make you want to be a bridesmaid!

Stunning. 

Thanks apartment # 34 for this spectacular piece of eye candy!

I most especially love the dress second from the left...

Oh, & the one in the middle too? Yeah, her mumma made that dress... (jealousy is ugly jealousy is ugly)

I know I've been super absent... I've been procrastinating.

I do have lots of planning progress news though!

#85 THE Save The Date

We are being less than efficient when it comes to getting invitations out, so to make myself feel a little better, I'm going to go ahead & share our save the date which we have been moderately efficient about & have already sent out.

One 'to do' gold star for me... hooray!

They're magnets.

I made them myself. 

It took ages.

I went a little mad...
