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!

Lavender Escort Card Display

How simple, yet super elegant is this escort card display? Topped with calligraphy emblazoned escort cards, and the presentation is perfection.

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend ahead!

Also, how is it OCTOBER tomorrow?!

Lavender French Macarons

I don't think I knew about Macarons until fairly recently. I studied abroad in France, and have been to Paris a handful of times, but I didn't really know about Laduree until after I moved back to the States. Last summer, I tried my hand at making my own macarons, and surprisingly they turned out pretty well. 

The Tartelette Blog has some fabulous macaron recipes which you can check out here. And how perfect would macarons be for favors or in lieu of wedding cake. (Although, I love me some wedding cake!)

Lavender Mason Jars

Between the light in this photo and the simplicity of the mason jars, my heart just swoons. Seriously.

Take me to Provence to sit at a cafe. Or to a little house in the country side and sit in the backyard staring at the lavender fields.

I think I need a vacation!

Lavender Boutonniere

So simple. So gorgeous. 

Perfect for a French Countryside wedding.

I want to go to France. STAT!
