I'mabusygirl!

Only four days to go! Seriously! And no blogging for almost two months? After the wedding, I am totally going to blog about all the cool crafty things I made.

1. Our bouquets, boutonnieres, and hairpieces
2. Our escort cards and display
3. Invitations and thank yous
4. Favors!
5. Our cake toppers- yes, multiple- very cool! And the cake design, too!
6. Not something I made, but the shawl that my friend knitted for me (amazing!)
7. The bridal party gifts!

But for now, we are cleaning house and I've been crafting my way to organization! This is an apron rack that I made from a strip of fabric, and six ribbons (from holiday gift bags of which I replaced the ribbons)

You just tie the ribbon around the apron, and bam! Organized.

Secondly, I created a mini-cafe around our Keurig (which is so fun!. I just created a sign in Publisher and moved some pots and pans to re-purpose the rack for mugs.



Finallym, I cut a hot chocolate container in half and covered it in some great wrapping paper from a shower gift. I also used the paper to line the shelves of the cafe.



So that's where we are for now! I'll share our dining room table and its inspiration soon.

Ok, here I am wearing my prom dress (because it fits and i still love it!) and the amaaazing Lydia Bennett-style hat that Erica made for me.

Amy made me an awesome cake! It was beautiful and a delicious carrot, too!

Thanks to everyone who came- you made my day!

I was sick for a week afterward, so thank goodness I wasn't sick that day!

I need to get pictures from my shower! It was so much fun!

Wedding and more!

My first shower is coming up this Sunday and I am wicked excited! I can't wait to see what they've all put together! A party for ME??? Not since I turned 20 do I remember a real PARTY that was just for me- with invitations and everything. I keep looking at these DIY sites and thinking that my DIY stuff is awesome and I need to share it. But I don't want to ruin the surprise, so it will be January before it all pops up on here!

We are FINALLY working on wedding stuff today! Jenn, Heather, and Kelly's dresses came in, my shower (the CT one) is next weekend- exciting!- and I had a dress fitting and I look lovely with my new short hair! Today we are filling out our paperwork, deciding on our rehearsal menu, and coming up with a table plan.

Things are moving quickly!

School!

So I got accepted to CCSU and filled out my FAFSA and all that and on October 22, I'm going to an advisory session for transfers. So I'll start two classes in January to begin a degree in Graphic Design!

no more hairs!
