Armoired and Dangerous

This piece I am about to share with you is one of my favorite pieces we have ever put in the booth. It is a classic mid-century modern armoire. This would look beautiful in a bedroom or it could serve as a luxurious bar. If Kyle would have let me keep this, I would have in a heartbeat. Alas, the first world problems of a booth owner.

Without further adieu, here it is:

I am in love. Here is what the booth looks like with the armoire in it:

Don't you just love it? On another note, stay tuned for another bridal DIY soon.

Crafty Cards

Sorry for the long hiatus! I have been so engulfed with the wedding and I have wedding projects coming out of my ears. I had my bridal shower and we are working on editing those photos and putting them up on the blog with some DIYs. Meanwhile, I wanted to share a DIY that I did recently.

After the shower, I wanted to send out the first round of thank you cards. We debated on having Kyle design them to match the invitations. However, the printing was going to be pretty expensive. So I came up with an alternate idea. I found a monogram stamp at Micheal's for $1 and had an ah-ha moment. I could buy classy, but simple cards at a place like Target and stamp each one with the monogram stamp.

Here are my supplies:

And here is the after:

I love that it is more personal than just a store bought thank you note. And you don't have to use it for a wedding, a thank you note is always nice! Stay tuned (hopefully soon) for pictures and DIYs from my bridal shower!

Churchy Cheer-Up

We added a new desk to the booth that we painted red. Kyle's dad found it at their church. Everyone wanted to throw it away, but he thought of us. We immediately snatched it up. It just needed some TLC. It's a really large desk that has some cool quirks. For example, you have to open the top, middle drawer to open the other drawers. That way, it's harder for others to just rifle through your desk.

Here is what it looked like before:

Here are a couple of after pictures of it in the booth:

Here is what the booth looks like this week:

We just sold the french provincial dresser, so we will be adding a new piece soon that I am SO excited to share with you. It is awesome. I have also been working on wedding projects like craaaaaazy, so stay tuned for some more DIY tutorials.
