Change of plans.........
So, I had a bouquet picked out, but then I saw this one. Yes, I contacted my florist and made her change everything. It is just so dainty and pretty! :) She probably hates me.

These little lovebirds will grace the top of our cake. They match our attire perfectly. Well, asides from the top hat. James won't be rocking that, but it looks so cute on the bird!!!

I'm so amazed at all the little details!

Shoe clips
So. Yeah. I'm in heart love with www.etsy.com and you should be too!

I bought some vera wang bridal shoes at "She said Yes Bridal" awhile. Well, they are gorgeous and simple, but they needed a little kick. So, I am going to pin one inch little ivory flowers with tulle and tiffany blue little beads in the center on the tops of my shoes. They aren't finished yet, but I posted a picture of a flower pin made by the same lady.

I have something blue now. Hoorah. :)

Daddy and daughter dance song
I had the hardest time picking out a song that wasn't as cheesy as cheeto's and full of country twangs.

So, here is what I came up with.....

Feather Pillow Boxes
What You'll Need
Decorative Paper (text weight, not cardstock)
Cardboard Pillow Boxes (I used 3" x 3.5" x 1")
Ribbon
Feathers

Scissors or X-acto knife
Paper glue
Pencil

Resources:
The ribbon is from the Martha Stewart Craft collection. It's a woven ombre and the color is brick/moonstone.
The papers I used are made by Anna Griffin Inc and Screen Prints.
Feathers are available at any craft store.
Pillow Boxes can be purchased online though The Paper Zone or Packaging Specialties

Instructions

1. Use one of your pillow boxes as a template. Lay it down on your decorative paper and trace around it using a pencil. Trace two for every pillow box you will be covering. (see figure 1)

2. Cut the shapes you just traced using scissors or an X-acto knife. (see figure 2)

3 Coat one side of your box with a thin, even layer of glue and adhere one of your papers. Repeat this step on the opposite side of the box.

4. When the glue had completely dried, close one end of the box by folding in the pre-scored flaps. (see figure 3)

5. Cut a length of ribbon, wrap it around the middle of the box a couple of times and tie it off with a knot, and then a small bow. (see figure 4)

6. Fill your boxes with feathers, leaving the ends of the feathers sticking out. (see figure 4)

7. Use your computer and printer to create a small tag for your box with instructions for your guests. For my tags I wrote "When the newly weds walk your way, toss these feathers and shout 'HOORAY". Cut out your tags and stick them on using a dot of glue. (or you can print on label sheets and stick them on your boxes) (see figure 5)

8. You can also create a larger sign with instructions to place near your displayed boxes. (see figure 6)

9. Arrange your "feather pillows" in a box, bowl or basket for your guests to take. Have your guests shower you with feathers as march back down the aisle as newly weds, or as you depart at the end of the evening. (see figure 7)

What it cost:
Pillow boxes - I paid $.39 each when I bought a dozen, but you can get discounts buying larger quantities
Anna Griffin paper - $.75 a sheet (one 12" x 12" sheet of paper can cover 4 boxes)
Screen Prints paper - $1.50 a sheet
MS Ribbon - bought on clearance for $2 ( 8 yard roll)
Feathers - $2.50 for 1 oz bag (which will fill 6 or 7 boxes, depending on how full you stuff them)
