Weddings
but if I did? I'd make these for a wedding.
these save the dates via veiled vowsGetting mail (that isn't a bill) is already exciting enough, but mail that is actually a mini package? awesome.
I promise to bake for anyone who'd like to send me a christmas card like this.
via sunday suppersSorry for missing yesterday. I've been sick the past few days and couldn't get myself up to do much of anything besides refilling my glass full of V8 splash (so good) and grabbing more tissues. My mom sent me home from Thanksgiving with a lot of those little purse packs of tissues (you know, they have like 10 in them?) and they are all now gone. Ironically, they had cartoon Rudolphs on them, and given that my nose very quickly looked just as red I couldn't help but laugh at the coincidence. Side note, the real "only can get from behind the counter" Sudafed REALLY works.
Anyhow, it's been raining a lot so I haven't been able to take pictures to share what I've done to our home, but I did catch a glimpse of this beautiful set up by sunday suppers and had to share. isn't it so simple and pretty?
I love citrus in the winter. Maybe it's just my love of clementines (I fell in love with them my freshman year of college when my across the hall roommate in the dorms would buy them buy the crates!) but there is something really refreshing about the pop of color against a season full of snow whites, muted silvers and golds, creams, and evergreen.
oh I love winter! Now if only it would snow...
Have a wonderful day everyone!
I got a message from one of my favorite college roommates* a few days ago saying that she'd had a dream that she got married and there were birch trees all around and thought it would be a good idea for me to write a post about. Well I couldn't agree more! I love birch trees. The bark is so beautiful and I love the clean lines of the trees. I think it's the perfect touch to incorporate into a fall or winter wedding and am so happy S decided to tell me about her dream. Hopefully this board will do it justice!

*Not only is she just an awesome person, but we also took the same studio art classes together all summer long so I really got to know her better. We had only known each other for a semester when we decided to live together that summer but both wanted to stay in Athens for the summer so we just went for it and found an apt to sublease. Guess it was a little risky, and I can only speak on my part, but I'm happy we took the risk because she was such an awesome roommate! Now she's studying to be a nurse and I am so proud of her! She's going to do such an amazing job at it.
Blame it on all of the studying J was been doing last week, but all things pharmacy related have been stuck in my head lately. I was looking around the web earlier and saw lovely old pharmacy bottles and started thinking how beautiful they would be full of simple wildflowers and then tucked into a lush green mossy arrangement. Maybe for a wedding? Maybe for his graduation party (haha because that is so masculine)? Who knows. Either way I'm thinking I might just have to try it for myself...
I love the idea of outdoor altars, but can't help but have visions of the tornado from The Wizard of Oz anytime I see something like this. What do y'all think?
I think they make awesome decorations for a fall wedding- esp AFTER halloween.

Personally, I think this is a really really fun twist on what the bridesmaids carry down the aisle. Any thoughts?

Usually when someone thinks of a fall wedding, chocolate brown, leaves, and pumpkins/other foliage come to mind.
I think this is a beautiful new take on a fall wedding. I love (love love) using a ton of candles and I think mixing the varying greens with the creams and oranges creates something that is so beautiful. Hope you enjoy!
I love this photo by Max Wanger. It's just so magical. I can almost hear the music and laughter in the distance.
An array of different flowers, colors, and patterns isn't for everyone, but if it is, then this board is for you! It's inspired by a pillow I found at Anthropologie as well as one of my best friends who is getting married in Charleston. Hope you enjoy!
