saying goodbye

Sorry I have been MIA lately. My Great Aunt Marilyn passed away and I have been a little blue lately. I know most people aren't close to their great aunts but she was special. She was the first person I remember thinking was my friend. She was the first person to buy me fabric. I did my some of my first crafting with her. If I wanted to make bunnies then we didn't just make one bunny- I came home with a whole bag full of fabric handmade bunnies. She was an inspiring lady and I needed some time to say goodbye. Now I am a back and crafting more then ever. I think my inspiration is on over load right now.

I promise to share more with you this week!

bee yummy skin food

I don't know about you brides to be but I constantly worry about breaking out right before the wedding. And I know, I know, they can photo shop a lot of stuff but I don't want to be photo shopped! I just want my skin to corporate with me for once!

So I am going organic with Bee Yummy Skin Food. I have tried so many things. Expensive things. Nothing seems to work. If it gets rid of my acne- then it's to harsh and my skin is way to dry. If it moisturizes then I break out even more. So after reading testimonials on how this product has worked for other people, I am giving it a shot. It is suppose to be very moisturizing but also heals acne I think I am even going to be super cheesy and do a before and after shot.

bridesmaid's bouquets

I started my bridesmaid's bouquets. They are not as labor intense as my bouquet was. i also was able to use a lot of stuff I had to sitting around the house. I deconstructed some Christmas flowers with sparkles on them. Found some old thrift stuff like branches with pearls. I love doing that, just looking around my house for stuff to craft with. It is a great source of inspiration for me. The bouquets just seemed to grow on their own.

I am starting to relax more now that I have a clear vision on the colors and textures going into the wedding. I use to worry about how it was all going to come together but I realize now that I just have to stick with my gut and keep my overall vision in mind.
