I am alive.... promise

Ok this has gone on long enough... I look at my blog and know I need to post but there always seem to be a million other things to do. It is true but tonight I am avoiding the million other things and writing a blog post because really...it's about time!

So what is new and exciting in my life, well only one month until my wedding day! 

I've become really good at procrastinating on wedding stuff (yikes) But it will all come together in the end (right??!!?!!)

What do I need to do you ask.... Well let me tell you!


The feather fiasco that is my wedding needs to continue, 
I have finished my bouquet made of feather flowers, and the boutonniere's. I still need to complete my veil and fascinator, as well as my matron of honour's fascinator. The centerpieces  need to be completed and the felting has not even started.

I am planning on making something like this cute felted dumpling bag for my flower girl to carry:

 And I am going way out on a limb to try to create this as an alternative to a ring pillow:

This girl on etsy makes beautiful hollow books her shop is called secretsafebooks but I found a book at a used book store that I'm itching to try out so we'll keep you posted on how that turns out.

I also haven't even started on my seating chart... I'm going to do alphabetical but haven't decided exactly how I'd like it to look... deciding on something like this ....

But I wouldn't make it so big and all the pink circles wouldn't be on there but I like the idea of the fun fonts .... Or something like this
 which I found here
 I like the idea of the photo's but I would probably do it a bit differently....

Or just going for this style
 which I found here

what do you think?

This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as things I need to do, but putting it here on the blog has just motivated me to get a move on! I'm hoping to keep you updated on how some of these projects turn out.
