Happy Friday afternoon, bubelahs! I’m pumped because we’ve got two posts on the docket today, one is a freaking gorgeous real wedding, but that’s coming up a bit later today because I’m excited to start things off with this killer heads up on a stellar company that might just be the perfect answer to your [...]
I’ve been wanting to share a wee little bit of the brand new design for aaaages with you guys! So we’re kinda stoked right now, because we’re finally going to give you a snippet of the action going on behind the scenes. Alright, enough small talk, here’s that peek you’ve been wanting… Sorry, that’s all [...]
When I came across this fabulous idea, I immediately knew I had to post about it. This is so right up my alley! And I suspect it’s right up yours, too… Elizabeth Messina – one of my absolute favorite photographers in the entire galaxy and beyond, and who has a blog that is almost as fabulous [...]
Totally in love with these two sets of dreamy shots by one fabulous board creator, Niki :D. Of the first set, I’m obsessed with the goldfish shot, and the color of that fence in the upper right-hand corner makes my brain tingle with joy. Truly brilliant coloring tends to have that effect on me. (Yeah, [...]
After experiencing Issue #1, I was itching to see what the gals of Nonpareil Magazine had in store for us with Issue #2. What’s the complete opposite of being disappointed? I am that. Totally inspiring. Like, the definition of inspiring. A color palette so powerful it actually makes me feel good when I linger on [...]
Rachel of Jolie Jolie recently blogged about what may be one of the sweetest and most creative proposals I’ve ever seen when it comes to creativity and design. Here’s a taste: Eeek! Don’t you love it? I suggest reading Rachel’s post, in which she describes Deny’s whole process, start to finish. It’s yet another fine [...]
Cutely packaged cupcakes + Lemon frozen yogurt and raspberry pops (reminds me of how I sometimes call my dad “Popsicle”) + Design exercise for your brain (brings me back to my earliest drawings, which always started w/ some random squiggle on a blank page… inside of my history notebook… while spacing out in class) + [...]
As announced on Twitter, we’re doing a Countdown to Valentine’s Day Tour, right here within the confines of this bloggity blog blog. So, less a tour, per se, more a countdown to Valentine’s Day. But all the same to you, right? What? Just get to the project? Oh… oh okay. Here you go… So, I [...]
While combing flickr for some stellar inspiration, I lucked into finding this brilliant set of photographs by flag75*, each one more colorful and intriguing than the next. They remind me of that game segment from one of those late night talk shows – the name of which I can’t recall at the moment – that [...]
I have admired Rebecca Thuss from afar for quite a long stretch now. When it comes to swoon-worthy, she is, in my estimation, a genius. Upon a visit to Rebecca’s site, one finds this menu: Now, I can speak only for myself, but you might agree with me when I say that this short, sweet [...]
Surfing around on the Etsy wave one day, I happened upon Ashley’s shop. In my opinion, her sterling silver jewelry is, as my two year old nephew likes to say, “oooh, so cute.” (He’s clearly parroting us, especially if you could hear the inflection in his voice when he says those words – it’s… well, [...]
Want to know what’s been really tough for me to do? Pick just ONE color palette for my wedding. That’s one of the most difficult decisions I’ve faced while planning my affair and it’s not getting any easier the more inspiration I find. And guess what? It’s a challenging thing to plan a wedding when [...]
I love it when I randomly take a look at one of the many lovely shops I’ve “Favorited” on Etsy, and find – always to my surprise, for some reason – new and outstanding product ready for purchase. Say it with me, folks – new product. Ahh, just rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it. In [...]
. LOVE TYPOGRAPHY. Now, I know I say “I love” about a lot of things – but with Typography, I mean it. *** If Typography had been a character on Saved by the Bell, it would have been Zack Morris (I realize it would make more sense as Jessie Spano, but… c’mon). And, if asked [...]
Occasionally, I’ll go to my Favorites page on Etsy, just to take a lingering look at what I’ve accumulated. For example, I favorited Etsy shop owner sarahparrott825, because she has the most precious thing going. She calls it, “Press & Post,” which she describes as “a monthly delivery of one letterpress card complete with a [...]
I’m absolutely gushing over today’s post, you guys. First of all, it’s got printable freebies, and they’re labels. Eek! Second of all, the pictures, ooohhhh the pictures. These labels from Eat Drink Chic, which I found via ‘IDo’-it-yourself, would be totally perfect for a really vintage, unique, hyper-stylish wedding. And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is [...]
I love this idea… it’s something I’ve always wanted to do with the many lovely photos of my mother that my dad has taken over time. This one’s from Cindy Russell, of her mother. … Always loved that he took those photos. So sweet, such a deep expression of love. I’m joyous that they exist, [...]
Amelia Lyon is one of my favorite photographers. Yeah, it’s partly because she takes killer shots – but A LOT of people take killer shots. That’s why it’s so hard to choose a wedding photographer. There are just loads and loads of amazing photographers out there from which to choose. So here’s what sets someone [...]
*** Scroll to the bottom of this post to turn on the musical stylings of my favorite new artist, Warpold Wine. Mmm mmm goodness. *** So, one big decision I’ve made in the process of planning my wedding is that I’m personally going to address the envelopes that will hold my save-the-dates, and then, based [...]
