Fabric Buttons

Can one ever get too many buttons?

Fabric buttons can be so colorful and add such a unique look to things, like these from Needle Book

Here are some cute pink fabric buttons from Cutie Stuffs

Fabric Buttons on a box look really cute from Martha Stewart

Buttons holding the tags on bags at Design Sponge

This was a fun wedding look and I am adding more than just buttons from 100 Layer Cake. It all fit together to make a great look.
Here are the buttons -

matching napkins -

matching ties -

matching bunting -

and the dresses and flowers were great too -

These have a button look, but are not really buttons. The look is similar and easily swapped with same look of fabric buttons. From Martha Stewart

Favors at Weddings

I'd love to see the other details of this wedding, but the favors looked great.
There were three favors to choose from.

From Weddingbee



FYI - I do take a favor at weddings, but I especially like to give them. I can't do a wedding / reception without them. They are as much for me to give as they are for others to take. They add something fun and festive to the event.


Here is another cute favor idea from Weddingbee
I love the details of this cute chocolate bar package and tag.



There will be a few guests that really want and take a favor, but in my experience there are too many favors left at the end of the day. I suppose that is one good reason to make your favors something you really like, because you'll be seeing a lot of them for days, weeks, months, who knows?!?!?!

Furniture at Weddings

I love to see furniture used at weddings ... I love to see a lot of fabric draped to create a focal point ... I love the unique look every setting can give.
You'll find a post about using furniture at weddings at Lovely.

Serenity Prayer

(Image is a card I have had for a very long time - always saving the look!)

Each New Day!

I am so grateful for each new day!


(Image from Google Images)


I want to be more charitable and compassionate, I want to be more spiritual and more wise, I want to be more like Christ - our perfect example...

I want to do and be better each new day!

Cupcakes for two

A recipe for cupcakes for two from How Sweet It Is




... It's really probably better that I don't try this recipe because it would be a perfect excuse to bake and eat them before anyone even knew I'd done such a thing!
Someone else need this idea? (I do mean the idea of baking for two, not the idea of baking and eating without anyone knowing.)

Have a great day!

Beautiful Flowers

I love this bouquet / arrangement from Once Wed

A Look to Remember

Beautifully elegant in pink and white. This is a baby shower from Blowout Party. It would make a great wedding or Valentines Day decor too. (There are a few more photos there.)

Added Another Print to our Collection!

This is a card I wanted to make when we had our last child (number nine), but was never able to accomplish that task. I loved it though, and think it is a great idea.



(Um! yes, we only have one daughter!)


This Thank You card was my inspiration


(Disclaimer: I found a reminder to post this and couldn't find a past post showing that I did post it, so I am posting it now. If I have previously posted about this, please forgive me - I just couldn't leave it out!)

Fences

Do I like the idea of fencing things out or fencing things in? I just love the look!
