Here is a neat centerpiece idea for a comtempary wedding look. These tealight holders come as a set of three for $29.99 per set. For a clean, elegant look, place a tealight in each and leave as is. For a more classic, romantic look, sprinkle rose petals, daisies, pearls or other decor items in among the candles holders.

COTW: Blue & Yellow Unique Bouquet Idea


009_primary.jpg

I love this bouquet idea! Pale yellow roses, white stephanotis,and clear “glass” blue bubbles. It is totally unique, elegant and just goregous! The matching centerpeice is wonderful as well! If you are on a budget, a smaller version of the centerpiece may be just as elegant but a little less expensive.

COTW: Blue & Yellow Stationary Ideas

This adorable little cards are from Earthworks and they are so cute! They would make great thank you notes – but you could easily adapt this same style into a DIY invitation as well.

This cute design is a Anna Griffin design! This unique style is perfect for an invitation – just print you information in a pretty script and you are done:)

Here is another of my favorites but I can not for the life of me remember were I found it. The LOVE paper could be printed or you might be able to find it at a scrapbook store and make your own.

Possibly the Best Cake Toppers Yet


navy.jpgfireman.jpg

When I found this site, I could not believe my eyes. The selection is wonderful  – but I was particularly drawn to these fireman, police and military sets. What a wonderful way to celebrate the things that make you  – you! The cost is also impressive – these range between $75 – $150.

Now, you can get a lot of nice, store bought cake toppers for that price – but wait till you hear this: these are CUSTOM MADE by hand! Not kidding! You pick the style, and then the couple is customized using the color of his uniform, the style of your dress, you hair and skin colors, they will even try to match the hair style and viel if you have photos! Some of them – the fireman, for example,can have his last name on the back of the jacket as well.

The site itself is not all that impressive – so I did not expect much at first. I was astounded. These are wonderful – and the price is unbeatable!  Oh I suppose the site link would be good, lol – Helyn’s.

Wedding Bells Coming:)


I found out recently that my brother intends to pop the question later this month! I am SO excited. He has date 15 absolute losers before he meet and fell for this gal. She is a keeper! She is actually someone I was close to before. My younger sister and she were best friends, so she spent a lot of time at my house. My kids and I were both in love with her before they even meet! We were SO excited when we found out that they had met and hit it off!

Anyway – we talked wedding plans today:) She knows the engagment is coming but is not sure when (july 22, lol – her birthday – she doesn’t have access to my blog). So, we talked about her wedding dress which I will be custom designing for her. Her wedding colors, yellow and orange, gerbera and shasta daisies. Bridesmaid colors. locations, etc. I am SO pumped!!!  I had to share!!!

River Rock Beach Wedding Centerpiece


riverrock.jpg

Here is another GREAT idea for a centerpiece! This River Rock collection comes in this 4.5 x 4.5 inch box that is perfect for a beach wedding. Simply remove the rocks and place a pillar candle in the box. Add some sand at the base to hold the candle steady, then add the river rocks. Use the remaining river rocks to decorate the table around the box.

The name itself is very neat – but if you don’t want guests to see it, wrap raffia or blue ribbon around the box, tying in front of the logo. Then, glue a small shell or starfish to the center of the bow.

The best part – each box with the rocks is only $7.99!!!!

Awesome Deal: favors or centerpieces


91_4796.jpg

I was looking for a gift at one of my favorite sites when I came across this pot/candle holder. This 3 1/2 inch high ceramic pot is on sale right now for $1.99 – and would be perfect for a summer wedding!  There are a number of ideas I came up with that could use this pot:

Centerpiece & Favors for A Rectangular Table: Order one pot per guest and then place them down the center of the table. You can place candles, a small plant or a silk flower arrangement in each pot – or vary them for a unique display. At the end of the evening, let guests each take one home with them.

Favors: These pots would make lovely favors, with pottede plants, chocolates or a candle inside. Place one on the center of each place setting.

Centerpiece for a Round Table: For a round table, start with 3 pots per table,and a length of blue semi-sheer fabric. using little blocks orboxes, create three  “levels” on the table and drape the fabric over the levels. Then,place one pot on each and sprinkle  rose petals, confetti,  strings of pearls, etc in among the fabric. You can place plants, flowers or candles in the pots. For a simpler look, place a round mirror in the center, place a single pot on top and put clear votive holders around the pot. 

Here is another one that I found as well. This ceramic flower arranger could work beautifully with any color scheme and is on sale for $1.49!
