Wedding Craft Revealed...Did You Guess It Right??

Happy Friday!!!

Remember when I asked y'all to guess what Taylor and I were making here?


A lot of you guessed table number holders

well....

We made coasters to give away in our favor bags!!



{Favor Bags}


I purchased the bags and tree stamp from hobby lobby,
and found the thank you one at the dollar store.




Coasters




These were really easy to make...just time consuming!!
I used my Dremel tool to carve out the initials and then used my woodburner.



Would you like to see a tutorial on them?

If I have enough people interested on how I made these, comment because I
 have all the pictures for a step-by-step tutorial. I wouldn't mind posting
about it, I just didn't have time to today.



Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, I know I will!!

Sunday I'm getting married!!


p.s. be sure to stop by tomorrow because I have a giveaway starting!!

Refashioned Waist Skirt By ~Ruffles And Stuff ~

I have always enjoyed reading blogs. And not just craft blogs, I follow
fashion blogs, cooking blogs, and wedding blogs.
Every blog inspires me in some way, but today Disney from
Ruffles & Stuff really put me in a inspiring state.

Ruffles and Stuff was one of the very first blogs that I read
 before I started blogging..
She has some amazing tutorials and is soo inspiring.

Take a look at what she refashioned today.
** These pictures are faublous..they will take your breath away**

Rustic Wood Ring Bearer {DIY}

Happy Monday!!!

It's my wedding week
I've been dreaming of this week forever.
 I can't believe on Sunday I'll be getting
married.
Aahh someone {pinch} me please!


This weekend  I WE were soo busy making a few last minute crafts.
Taylor and I managed to complete one and I'm almost done with another.

Wanna see what I made?


Rustic Wood  Flower Ring Bearer

This is something I've been dying to share with y'all.
 I finally finished it this weekend.
It's super simple to make, and goes PERFECT with my
rustic wood theme wedding.

I had my dad cut a piece of
wood from a fallen tree,  added a flower from Hobby Lobby,
tied bow with ribbon and glued it
to the center of the wood.

Easy...Simple..Inexpensive!!









What do you think??


The other craft we made is still a work in progress, but I hope
to have it finished and posted by Friday.


But until then, here is a sneak peek...



Can you guess what were making??
