Handmade Moss "H"

I made this Moss "H" for the "Love Soars" Bridal Shower because not only will it be the initial of my future sister-in- law's last name but I wanted her to have a keepsake she could use in her new home. Maybe as some front door decor or on her mantle.

Bird's Nest Platters

Platters are super popular right now, especially with party planning. As you know from previous posts, I have been working on a bird themed bridal shower called "Love Soars." I wanted something that resembled a bird's nest but didn't want to spend the money. I came up with making these bird's nest platters and they were pretty cheap. Definitely a win, win! Check out the tutorial

Enjoy the pics! =)

Upcoming Project Sneak Peek

I am so excited for this upcoming project and I just can't contain myself. So, I had to put together a small, little something. I can't wait to post more on it but waiting makes it much more fun, right? The project won't be done until early October so, keep an "eye" out!

Bridal Shower Outdoor Banner

I like balloons, don't get me wrong, but I love banners to show where the party is at. 

I made this for the "approaching quickly" bridal shower for my brother's fiance. I love wedding festivities and I love ruffles. I think they go fabulous together! Well, maybe not so much on the bridesmaid's dresses but you know what I mean. 

I stitched a double sided ruffle and holders by hand (I BADLY NEED A SEWING MACHINE!!!). The burlap was done the same way I made the "Decorative Bridal Shower Frame." I can't wait to put this out to direct the guests!

Decorative Bridal Shower Frame

Here is a piece of decor I made for the bridal shower that I am throwing for my future sister-in-law. She has a necklace with the same kind of bird so I thought it would be perfect to use for the frame. This frame was super easy to make too. Directions are at the bottom.





I cut the burlap to fit the frame. 
Then, I drew an image on paper and cut it out. I used the outside of the image as a template and taped it to the burlap in the position I wanted, just like in the picture below.
I painted the image and let it dry.
I removed the template once it was completely dry and placed it into the frame.


It is so easy, I might have to make another one for myself!

"Love Soars" Bridal Shower Invite

My brother is getting married in just a few months and so I, along with a few others, am hosting one of the bridal showers. I am so excited and cannot wait! 

This is the invite I made and if you have been following my blog for some time you might have seen my "Love Soars" bookmark I made for his fiance a while back. It shows how I did the resist technique you see here. I also added some screen material to give it a more rustic feel. Each invite (all 27) were hand inked with the very famous Tim Holtz's distress inks along with the use of his stamps. 

I am also obsessed with inserts so I added one to this invite. Fairly easy to do. 

Enjoy and thanks for stopping by! =)
