Progress

I'm making progress on some of my wedding projects!

Save-the-Dates are coming together in full force.  I'm actually taking a break from working on them to blog a bit!

Here is a peek of my basket full of some of the supplies for the save-the-dates.  

 I can't wait to show the finished product! They are definitely unique and very crafty. 

Another fun task I finished was sprucing up an antique tin metal chest that I have.  I lined the inside of it with a cute fabric that matches perfectly with some of my wedding colors! 

This cute addition will be utilized at the reception in a fun and special way!

(P.S. the tin chest was purchased over a year ago for $12 at an antique shop and I bought out the last few yards of the fabric on clearance for less than $3 total...I love deals!)

Being a DIY bride isn't always easy but I will say it is very rewarding! It's a good feeling knowing that I have had my hands on every aspect of my wedding and haven't left it all in someone else's hands.  With that said, I am very thankful for my crafty talents and desires and the time I have had to enjoy the engagement experience.

I'm also excited for SO many of my friends that have gotten engaged over the past couple of weeks! Especially all of my sweet Phi Mu sisters! Such a fun and exciting time this is!
