Panda Love

Every Friday, one of the local bridal attire shops gives away a "Friday Freebie". You can see this here! Well, I won the give-away a couple weeks ago and my package arrived! I won an adoption package---I got one of the giant pandas at the National Zoo, with his picture and factsheet! It arrived in an awesome box with holes and "Do not Feed!" and "Gentle!" which scared my mom and sister who didn't know what to expect inside...I also got a beautiful sterling silver charm bracelet with a panda charm! Woohoo for winning stuff!

Since I am a big fan of lolcats, I thought this was appropriate. :)

Will You Be My Bridesmaid??

Let's just say that when your favorite hobby is perusing wedding blogs, you end up doing something like this. I made "Will You Be my Bridesmaid??" gift bags for each of my bridesmaids. I thought it would be a nice way to get them excited for their part in the wedding and to also set the stage that this will be a wedding of lots of nice, thoughtful details.

I included the most perfect card from Papyrus that had a cute, glittery pink bridesmaid dress on a hanger that said "Will you be in my wedding?" along with a gift card to my favorite self-serve froyo place in NoVA (Josie's!!!) and a lavender pillow mist (because I'm hoping to incorporate lavender into the wedding).
