And to those going to Halloween parties (or weddings) this weekend, have a safe and happy weekend!

Halloween Wedding Ideas

I don't know about you, but if I'm being totally honest, I'm not a huge fan of Halloween. I never liked dressing up very much as a kid. I think the only thing I liked about Halloween was all the candy. The good stuff, like Snickers, KitKats, and Twix. None of that cheap Tootsie Roll business (sorry if those are your favorites!). 

But since Halloween is literally right around the corner, I thought I'd highlight some fun ways to incorporate Halloween into your wedding.

I saw these chair signs on The Sweetest Occasion and had to share. Be sure to check out the full post for chic Halloween wedding ideas.

DIY Week: Rope Words

I saw this project over on Green Wedding Shoes and thought it was so cute! It's kind of the same idea as the string chandeliers, using corn starch and glue. How perfect is this to make for your wedding and then as DIY art in your home?! 

Check out the full DIY Tutorial on Green Wedding Shoes.

What are you doing for the weekend? My hubby texted me to pick out a restaurant...he wrote, "Don't worry how expensive." So I'm researching yummy restaurants we haven't tried yet. And I'm wondering what's the special occasion...?! Have a great weekend!!

Happy Friday!

DIY Week: Hand-Painted Mugs

How cute would these be for bridesmaids gifts? Especially for you crafty people and your crafty bridesmaids. I stumbled on this on Pinterest (of course!) and just had to post. Super cute to have unique dishware!

Check out the DIY Tutorial on how to make your own hand-painted mugs.

DIY Week: String Chandeliers

A few months ago I spotted these string chandeliers and was completely intrigued.

They make a modern alternative to tissue poms or paper lanterns and add an accessible element of DIY to any wedding. I think they are also so lovely when contrasted against some greenery, as seen in the inspired shoot in the photo. So pretty!

DIY Week: Yarn-wrapped Bottles

So I don't know about you, but I live on Pinterest. I love searching for simple terms like "headboard" or "escort cards" or "DIY decor" and coming up with all kinds of cool, unique ideas. I came upon these yarn-wrapped bottles and thought they could add a simple DIY touch to a wedding - great for centerpieces and then later repurposed as home decor. I'd totally add a set of billy balls or other hardy plant.

Tuesday Shoesday: Sparkly Louboutins

I'm pretty sure I'd break an ankle or worse if I were to wear these, but to all the ladies who can rock 5 inch heels, I say go for it!
