Viva Italy!

So we had our consultation and absolutely fell in love with Italy! Here's some pics (not mine, I found them on Google because I'm a dork who forgot my camera grrr)

We'll get married on the center circle thing, but the first picture shows the fountain and new Pizzeria background :D
And here is where we'll brunch, Italy Isola, the first is it empty and the second is with a reception there.

Kids Coloring pads maybe?

Of course I'll have to change the design a little, but this might go great with my crayons I want to make!

DIY Crayons!

So I raided Walmart's back to school section, 20 cents for 24 crayons! (I bought 25 packages!)

I just need to buy some molds, I'm not sure what exactly I'm going to do yet though!

Love these! Flower Favor wrap!

These might help add some flower decor without wasting money on actual flowers!

Placecards

Ok I'm not sure which I love more! These, except maybe as Mickey heads instead of butterflies (or maybe thats too much?)

Or something a little more plain, but with a Mickey shaped holder?

 

The how to-

Wire Table Number Holders

Make graceful holders with swirls that enhance a card's design. These are actually pieces of inexpensive radio wire -- cloth-covered wire, used in vintage radios, that is available online in a variety of colors (look for solid, not stranded, wire). Give it a new twist for a wedding, and it can hold aloft menus, table numbers, or place cards. The wire bends easily and is sturdy enough to keep its shape. The shorter stands rest on a table, and the tall version can be placed in a centerpiece. Copy our designs or create your own.

Ring Pillow

Ok Picture this

but glued into this

Perfect for a beach wedding!

Not sure if I'll do programs, but these are just so cute I might have to!

Wedding Program Jacket

Wide moire taffeta ribbon becomes a beautiful jacket for a wedding program. A narrow brown ribbon tied in a simple bow holds the finished booklet closed.

You will need: scalloping shears, 4 1/2 -inch-wide moire taffeta ribbon cut to 7-inch length, your program printed on 6 1/4-by-4 1/4-inch paper, paper clips, thin satin ribbon 18 3/4 inches long, pins, and a sewing machine.

1. Fold program in half; crease. Fold wide ribbon in half; iron to crease. Center open program on unfolded ribbon; clip in place. Center narrow ribbon on outside of wide ribbon, perpendicular to fold, and pin close to the crease.

2. With booklet open to center, sew through all 3 elements along the fold. Tie off thread and trim excess. Remove clips and pins.

Escort cards!

These definitely are in the running! Thanks Martha Stewart!

Parasol Seating Cards

These cheerfully colored umbrellas sporting seating assignments dot miniature sand dunes at the entrance to a summer reception.
You'll need a 1-inch-deep tray, a sheet of 1/4-inch foam board cut to fit into the bottom of the tray, and some sand. Lay the foam board in the tray, and cover with sand. Drizzle sand unevenly, sifting a bit more here and there to form dunes. Print your seating assignments onto colored paper, and cut them into strips; glue strips to the shafts of the umbrellas. Poke the umbrellas through the sand into the foam board at an angle so guests can easily find their names.
