Featured: Southern Weddings Again!

Catie Ronquillo and I originally worked together on a photoshoot that she put together with Elizabeth of After Yes Weddings. We used mason jars and we couldn't help but submit these photos into the Southern Weddings Mason Jar Challenge along with our Sweet Tea Kits.  It was so fun to see that they were featured this week on their blog as well. mason jar tags mason jar tags

The theme of the photo shoot was 'back to school', but I think the concept can work with a lot of themes, by using straws instead of pencils or other types of candy. Yum!

Featured: Southern Weddings Blog

I teamed up with the sweet and talented, Catie Ronquillo, photographer extraordinaire, to participate in the Southern Weddings Ultimate Challenge: Mason Jars. We could do anything wedding related that involved a mason jar, but the main requirement was that it needed to be southern. Naturally. When I think of southern, I think of sweet tea, so Catie had the great idea to do a 'Sweet Tea Kit' to give as favors. We filled each jar with sugar cubes, tea bags and a lemon and I designed little tags that we tied with yellow and white twine. I loved how they turned out, and today we got the nice surprise of being featured as finalists on the Southern Weddings blog!

Featured: Urban Scarlet Photo shoot

I am beyond excited to share with you some photos from my very first styled shoot! Justine, at Urban Scarlet, asked if I wanted to contribute to a photo shoot she was styling, and I jumped at the chance. I've been wanting to do something like this for awhile, but don't quite have the time to organize anything myself at this point. This was the perfect opportunity for me, so thank you so much, Justine, for thinking of me! Here are a few photos of my designs, but you can see a few more on her blog.

Pinning

Photobucket I know that 99.99999% of people that read my blog, read many others and thus are privy to the wonder that is Pinterest. But if for some reason you have been hiding under a rock, you must. go. there. now. Instead of saving beautiful photos on my hard drive, I just 'pin' it into whatever category I want to create and it's all organized in one place AND linked to the source. It's a great source of inspiration, but a fair warning... it's addicting!

Follow my pins here... and I would recommend following these ladies... Ann, Catie, Kerry and Sarah. I have to keep myself from repinning every image they pin.
