There's somethin' happening here...


So much is going on right now, I cannot believe I was just posting the other day about how bored I am!  
Here is a shot of one of the ring bowl my mom makes.  This is an old one, and ours will be different colors, but you get the idea:

I'm so excited about this: it is one of the 4 glass canisters we got at hobby lobby this week.  We will be using 4 of these for the popcorn bar!!  Aren't they great?

And now for the fantastic flower girl dresses and the pomander balls!!
My mom and I made the first prototype today, and I couldn't be happier!  We will add more feathers to them, but here is a rough first draft...
DARLING!!

Here is sweet Sophia in her dress this morning (not quite awake yet!)

And here are my two cutie little nieces hammin' it up in their's!

AH!  I'm so excited.

Wedding deliciousness...

While browsing the blogs this morning I came across this wedding featured on Snippet and Ink...and I LOVE IT!
I am in love with this bouquet... 

And these...I love the green wheat...
Also, our flower girl dresses are here!  They are EVERYTHING I hoped they would be and more.  I will take a picture of Sophia (little girl I nanny) in hers tomorrow.  SO CUTE!

Something else I'm super excited about are the ring bowls.  I know everyone has seen these from here
My mom is fantastically creative and works with clay. When I showed them to her she said she thought she could make them.  Once she started making our ring bowl she realized how cute it was going to be- and now she's making enough of them for us to use as favors at our wedding.  
I'm so excited!  We are going to put a sweet phrase along with them to explain what they are.  

Thats all for now!  I hope everyone had a great weekend!

The things I want to DIY

This list keeps growing.  

I met with my mom last night to go over some wedding things.  She was practically laughing at me as I told her all of my ideas of things I want to DIY.  She thought I was over extending myself, and that I wouldn't be able to do it all.

DON'T.  UNDERESTIMATE ME.  Is what I said to her.  

And so it continues:
DIY LIST:

Kids Table.  Precious.  
Duh.  I love these.
I want to request in the invitation that everyone mail a wedding picture in with their RSVP.  I want to display them at the wedding in mason jars.  So easy. Right?  
The *NEW* candy bar...
Popcorn. yum.  From here
I love mason jars.  I have to have them hanging from chairs.  From here.
The oh-so-famous map.  My oh-so-talented uncle is going to make one for us.
this one from here.
My awesome cousin is making our cake toppers.  I hope they look like this :)
My mom is making our ring bowl.  
She's very talented with making things out of clay.  
Oh yes.  Vince says he doesn't want to wear a flower.  Ok honey, you can wear feathers, berries and dried flowers.  I love you.  From here
Yet again.  Julia has convinced me so I'm going to do them.  And they will be fabulous.  What wouldn't be fabulous with feathers involved?

Our bouquets.  This one might make me a little nervous.  I know we can do it though.  From here
These are so doable, right??
