Just poppin' in quickly to let you know what I have been up to for wedding preparations. Today I busted out some cute garter type things for some champagne glasses that I coworker gave to me to use in my wedding. They are gorgeous but they have the names Erica and Brian written on them. I thought people would think it was a little weird for us to have other names on our glasses so I decided to cover up the names...
A little lace, some velvet ribbon and a rhinestone encrusted monogram and boom! Festive champagne glasses :) Can I tell you a secret? I got the "M" from Joann's and they are actually letters that are supposed to go on dog collars. They were the perfect size and at a dollar a piece, I couldn't resist!
Next up on my to do list was the card box. There was a teacher's supply store that was going out of business this past January and they had an oval craft box that I snatched up for five bucks. To be honest, I hadn't shopped around for a card box yet so I don't even know if that was a good price but I got swept up in clearance fever and bought it.
I only made the bottom purple flower myself. They others were flowers that I picked up at Joann's....you guessed it, on clearance. The big, top flower was a buck and I bought a pack of five small lavender flowers for a buck too. And you know what??? The wide ivory ribbon was on clearance for two dollars for three yards and the lace was 25 cents a yard!!!! If you are wondering if I broke the bank on the fabric I covered the box with, do not fear! That was actually a fabric remnant that was 50% off so I think I paid $10 max for it. I love a good deal!

Save the date!
Here they are! These are the save the dates that I whipped up on picnik. The picture was from our trip to Myrtle Beach (the day before we became engaged...hence no ring...) I uploaded the design to Costco and they will be ready in an hour! Woo hoo!
