vacation time!

hi all -

just wanted to give a heads up that i leave town today and will be out of town & quasi out of touch internet-wise till the 5th of July... i'm not closing down my etsy shop - so please feel free to purchase and send messages, just know i might not be able to respond in a timely fashion! and i will get to ya...

i'm really looking forward to this trip - in case you are remotely curious we'll be heading to my cousin's wedding near Chicago for the weekend. and from there we will fly to Charleston, SC for a little girl time for the week! i'm so excited to be traveling, and it'll be a great way to come back nice and refreshed to work on the rest of the wedding season orders! =)

{shop update} jen aniston inspired necklace

awhile back i remember seeing this photo of jennifer aniston wearing a cute, petite little wishbone necklace... ever since i've been on the lookout for a charm that would make an equally cute necklace! and ta-da... i found it, and here's the necklace.

the necklace is 18 inches long {however you can request it longer or shorter} and the wishbone charm is approx. 3/4 of an inch long.

here's a close up!

i think these would even make a great little bridesmaids necklaces/gifts!

i've been so lame...

about updating the blog - i have been super swamped with convos in my etsy shop requesting custom cocktail napkins, bridal jewelry, and many other fun projects.  thank you so much for you interest in my goodies, and i am so flattered and honored to be working with all the special brides i've been chatting with and designing items for!  

i want to say thank you for the support of what i do and the handmade movement... especially for so many of your weddings!  just know that i'm floored to be working with you all! =)

i'll leave you with this photo i found while taking a creative break the other night... it's of the newly married Weddingbee  {MRS. Kitten}, she and her new hubs had what i'm sure was a fabulous destination wedding in the Cayman Islands... anywho, i stopped by their photog's site and look at this beautiful photo i found:
