Non-Flower Centerpiece

A recent topic in the wedding world has been how to make your day fabulous and chic, without breaking the bank. Now, more than ever, it's important for brides and wedding professionals alike to try and cut costs. Not only are brides trying to save money, but also the people that make weddings happen.

Some ideas for non-flower centerpieces:


1. Coffee beans and candles (http://farfallawedding.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/coffeebeans.jpg)
2. Water filled cylinders and floating candles (http://www.flickr.com/photos/pompomflipflop/2554873717/)
3. Baby's breath: not really a flower but close enough to look pretty and not cost too much

Etsy Love


It's official- I'm in love with Etsy!! I first heard about it through a post on SMP and it went through the blog world quicker than you could blink. Seriously, I can spend countless amounts of time looking at all the great things that are for sale. Even better, you're able to commission a custom order through Alchemy. What could be better?

I got the cutest wine glasses for my big and little. Big's glass was engagement themed and little's was for her birthday. After seeing my glasses my roommate decided to get a set of 4 for her mom. Dani's had grapes and were so classy, while mine were whimsical and fun. Definitely a very cute gift for family and friends.

Speaking of gifts, I've gotten the cutest little trinkets for my girlfriends, parents, and family! I can't wait to share them with you.
