Something Blue

Wedding Ideas Under $20...
(click image for purchase info.)

I don't know about you, but when I was planning my wedding
a few months ago I loved finding new and unique ideas to
add a little something special to my wedding day, especially
if they were cheap!
Even if that thing you find is a little unconventional; who
cares as long as it screams "you!"

Here are a few great finds from Etsy.com to add that
'something blue' to your wedding da
y.


It's okay to be a little funky!
This handmade and very mod ring adds a great
punch of color.




Who doesn't love a great cameo!
Add a little flare to your up-do with these great
bobby pins.





Classic and chic.
These sweet little earrings are fitting for any
hopeless romantic.



Sniff, sniff.
This 1920's hand embroidered
handkerchief will be
handy when the sniffles start...and it's too cute.



An oldy, but a goodie.
Try adding this vintage broach to your bouquet for
added whimsy.




Pom poms.
These party poms are perfect for an added cheerfulness
to any event. They come in so many great colors too.




Sew what?
This assortment of vintage buttons would look great in the
bottom of
vases filled with candles or flowers. They
would add a lot of fun
to any centerpiece.



If these walls could talk...
Vintage wallpaper can be framed, and used for your
table
numbers or glued to the back of cards for your
guests to write a note...the possibilities are endless!




Dear, Mr. and Mrs....
This vintage blue typewriter is a great alternative to a
guest book. It will be fun because most people have
forgotten what it's like to type on one.



Flower fun.
Instead of messy confetti or expensive rose petals, these
are a modern and classy way to decorate your tables.
And they come in any color.




Table for two, please.
Instead of the traditional linens spice things up with
printed ones.
No one will expect it.

Just in time for spring!
I found this sweet little idea on CasaSugar.com. It is so easy.
All you need is a hanging candle holder, dirt, rocks and a cute little succulent.
Succulents come in all shapes and sizes, and are great for the gardening challenged... they are water-retaining plants. Succulent plants store water in their leaves, stems and roots. They are also known as the "fat plant". Probably because they are so bloated.
