For our wedding, my sister-in-law gave us all the necessities for rolling our own sushi, complete with recipe cards & a shopping list! As avid sushi lovers, we were so excited to try it out! We decided it would be fun to attempt this adventure with our friends & fellow photographers the Frenzels. Here are...
This is a very special Valentines Day for me! Me and my sister flew up to Washington and surprised my mom for her Birthday. She was born on Valentines Day, which happens to be the same day as her dad’s Birthday! How special can you get?? Our husbands made a huge sacrifice by letting us...
Wahoo! It’s craft time! After all of the busyness this last month, I made it out to one of my favorite stores – Paper Source! They have some really cute paper in right now! Here are my crafting treasures along with other paper materials I have collected over the years…I think it’s time to create...
One of my best friends, Lindye Galloway Events asked me to design a table scape with her for the Utterly Engaged New Years party. Sixteen teams contested in the “modern” themed challenge. We decided on a modern glam theme & used industrial & paper materials to accomplish our look. We had a blast doing the...

This morning I decided to take on a DIY project – some much deserved Thank You cards for our wedding vendors!

Now that I am back from the honeymoon I have been working on getting the house put together! It has been a big organizing job, but very rewarding. It is actually starting to look like and feel more like our home. One thing that has been tricky is decorating the walls. I don’t like things...
Countdown! Less than two weeks until my wedding! My fiance and I are staying at my sister, Promise’s house in Arizona this week. We have been very productive while here! We ordered our photo guest book, chose music, & did other random little wedding projects :) My job last night was to make “reserved seating”...
Yesterday, I had coffee with my friend Corey, who told me about a brilliant idea! Her sister, who is getting married in the spring, asked each bridesmaid to be in her wedding by sending a bouquet of flowers. She used four florists & gave each one the same description. After each bridesmaid recieved the bouquet,...
I am excited to finally put this post up! I went to a small high school with Rosanna (who was a few years older), & saw her wedding photos online a few months back. I loved how her wedding looked truly handmade! Seeing the photos of her wedding actually helped me come up with the...
Last week, I had my friend Lindye Galloway over to help me with wedding crafts. She is a very creative & inspiring friend, the same one in fact who created that amazing suitcase chair I recently featured. I had seen some images online of a Strawberry Farms wedding, where the couple made their initials out...
Do you remember the excitement of chalk as a kid? Probably one of the cheapest forms of entertainment, but it felt like the world was at your fingertips. I remember using chalk to outline a bike adventure path on our driveway…or to make a grid for hop scotch. But now chalk is coming back in new and exciting...
