Squee!
Of course the future hubs thinks it's dumb that we're using a birdcage for a cardbox, which according to him should be a BOX. I can see where he's coming from, but then I remember that it doesn't matter because this is just the sort of girly cute little thing I can obsess over. He kindly obliges me. I purchased this second-hand for $15 from the lovely bride who also sold me my guest tablecloths for $4.35 a piece. I'll make a little "Cards" card and use some of the purple lantern ribbon to tie it shut, a pretty easy project.
This whole diy wedding thing is putting my creative crafty side in overdrive. I am an artistic person, I like making things, decorating, drawing and gardening. This wedding stuff is taking that candle of creativity and turning into a 1000 Watt bulb. The hubs is sweet about it, he says I'm going to drive myself nuts but he thinks it's cute. He prefers function over form, and I prefer both at 100%. I understand that bridesmaids usually help with this stuff, but my maid-of-honor is knocked up and planning for her own, enormous, baby shower/birthday in a few months. My other bridesmaid actually clocked out on me because she will be 8 months pregnant on the big day, plus she lives 4 hours away. My sister is in college and I don't like to ask for too much of her time. Fortunately my man is a sweetheart and will continue to help me with my little projects so I don't go crazy.
So, anyone out there feel like maybe they are getting in too deep in the diy pool? Who's helping you with projects?
