i'm definitely making some of these for my someday-special day.... wowzers! (via StyleMePretty)
today i am taking the day off to work on my little home. i haven't had a day off in way too long. i'm excited! trying to make my house look totally 1950s/1960s with a little bit of modern day handmade love.
tomorrow i have a mega exciting secret project to complete (it's a book i'm contributing to) and then a teeny mad-men style cocktail party with a few pals.
ok... i'm off to treasure hunt! loves, elsie
That is too cool! What an awesome idea for an alternative bouquet!
