DIY ideas

These are the cutest DIY shoes. Im going to the fabric store RIGHT NOW to make some for myself!

Bahahah!!!! I love DIY ideas from East Side Bride. I love mason Jars, therefore I love Martha Steward too.

Im going camping this weekend, (is it Friday yet?) and i really want to make some of these DIY smore wedding favors for me and my friends.

love love love this DIY fabric flower garland :)

Vintage DIY save the dates. Show your guest all the places you have fallen more in love with each other.

Im OBSESSED with lacy flowers with way too many petals (like cabbage rose and PEONIES). This DIY crepe flower is a perfect solution for a bride who LOVES peonies, but what if they are not in season on your big day?!?

Summer Chic Inspiration Board

I've been imagining this wedding in my head for some time now. I was inspired by my kitchen wall. I painted it my favorite color; DEEP TURQUOISE and i love love love it.

Colors: Shades of Teal Turquoise and light blue, Banana Yellow, and blush pink.



Brides maid dresses :)
I love mismatching. There are many ways to missmatch you bridesmaids; you can have them wear all the same color but different styles of dresses, you could have the wear the same style dress just different colors, or I have chosen to pick different colors and different dresses to make them each feel unique.(Dresses from Dillards & Anthropology)
This yellow truck and yellow button mums add just the right amount of YELLOW. Who wouldnt want to drive away from their wedding in an old car with tin cans draggin behind?!

Peonies are available early summer, but if you are planning a late summer/early fall wedding cabbage rose is a good substitute.

These colors are perfect for a late summer chic outdoor wedding.
