It's mine, all mine!


This was my dream wedding dress. Even with help from Erin at Dress A Day


and the lovely ladies at Pattern Rescue, I didn't locate it in time to make my wedding gown.


I LOVED my wedding dress! I was able to come up with something just as wonderful. But Vogue 4743 was never forgotten.


And a couple weeks ago it turned up on eBay!


Now it's mine and I can't wait to make a party dress out of it.


I just need a fabulous party to go to...

Bride's Gone Wild

Things are a little out of hand at the moment.


Criswell looks very disappointed at the state of my sewing room.

THAT'S A LOT OF NUTS!

Actually there's more chocolate than nuts, but that movie just isn't quoted enough.


These are going to be our wedding favors. Michael's going to design a custom label for us to put on them and each wedding guest will get a 4.25 oz (1/4 lb) bar of chocolate!


We found that Hershey bars don't come in the two-part wrappers anymore. Now they're in a one part brown granola bar-type wrapper. But we found that the XL bars at Smart and Final (or Fart and Smile if you're my silly cousin Andy-boy) are still in the good old two part wrapper. So we can slip off the brown outer wrapper, replace it with something weddingy and still have the pretty silver paper as the inner wrapper.


I'm excited, they're going to be great!
