Bridal Shower Inspiration

Today is the day of my sister in law to be's Florida bridal shower that I'm throwing. After polling her as to what she'd like I had: Eiffel towers, French things, and the sort of palette and look from Marie Antoinette's period at Versailles. Then I sifted and sorted through the Internet and Pinterest to find inspirational images to get my ideas flowing. This is some of what I found:

All of that gave way to me sketching this:

A Versailles inspired sketch of the bride herself.

Then that gave way to this:

The save the date for the shower (many of the invites where going to people out of town so I wanted to make sure they had enough notice).

It's a lot of pictures and process just to get things rolling, I know. But I thought it'd be fun to share all the pretty with you. I'll show the actual invites and more details later as things progress.

Kisses,

K

DIY: How To Braid A Scarf

Ever wonder how to braid a scarf like this? I used to till a sweet shop girl showed me how once a while ago. But for a refresher, or if you're just learning, click on through to the blog Krissa's Creative Hands for an easy tutorial. (I originally came across it on Pinterest, so addicting.)

Take that end of winter! Now even our scarves look like they're ready for spring!

Made Me Giggle: Poke The Bear

How cute is this print I came across on Pinterest? It made me giggle. (So cute and so funny in print form.) Can you imagine this hanging in someone's house? Growing up I heard this phrase a lot. From my Grandfather who used to pretend The Bear was on the phone for me, or left me a message, to my parents and siblings. Plus it always rings true even though I can never resist doing it...

I then promptly texted it to the Husband... Even though he was in the room with me. True story.

May the tech Gods not strike me down for excessive and silly use...

He's my most favorite person to lovingly torture and harass. And I mean that it the best way possible. Whether it's a random dance break while doing dishes (what! what!) or literally poking his side when he's not expecting it, I keep him on his toes and, luckily, he loves me for it!

Kisses,

Pinteresting...

I came across this image on Pinterest and just had to share.

How amazing is this?!? I've always wanted to go to Austrailia someday and Ayers Rock is definitely on my go see list. I never realized it had waterfalls cascading down it though! J'amazing!

I lurve geology so rocky spots are always on my travel list (I nearly died and went to heaven with all the volcanoes in Hawaii!). What about you? What sort of things do you like to check out when you travel?

Kisses,

K

P.S.,

Is anyone else as addicted to Pinterest as I am? It's totally my go to when I can't sleep.
