Paint the Town

Hello!

Because we A) Don't have a house yet and B) Don't have a wedding venue yet, I can't blog much about the crafts we are doing for each.  We don't have any reason to craft yet!

So I thought show you all our wedding colors!

Dan and I had decided not to make our wedding themed in any way because we wanted the wedding to be just about us.  Therefore, we didn't have to stick to any specific color scheme and are able to do whatever we want.

After a fun date spending hours in the paint aisle at Lowes, here's what we came up with...

We chose these colors because my favorite color is yellow and Dan likes blue and gray.  Luckily, the three colors go great together!

I love that we chose our colors together because its important to me that our wedding, future home, and essentially everything else is a reflection of both of us.  So I'm happy Dan stuck with me in that darn paint aisle. ; )

Right now, we're thinking about using the gray for the tuxes and accents, yellow for the bridesmaids, and blue for the flowers and accents.  We'll see!

That's all for now!

The Wonderful World of Bridal Shows

Hello : )

This has nothing to do with DIY but...

Today, Dan and I received an exciting call!  We won a vacation from a bridal show!  There are over 20 places we can choose as long as we sit through what I am sure will be a excruciatingly boring presentation.  Although, I believe it will be all about dishes and cookware, which is right up my alley! : )

And that's not all!  We will receive $1000 worth of coupons!  Which is just perfect because I am currently reading "Pick Another Checkout Line, Honey" which describes all the ins and outs of being a crazy coupon lady.  Fate, right?

For all we know, it might be spam, but for the meantime, I am very excited!

I'll keep you all posted!

And so it begins...

Hi all,

I'm very excited to be starting a blog!  Dan and I love anything DIY and have been talking since we met about furnishing and decorating our house with things we've made.  Now that we're getting married and looking into getting our first place, we finally have the opportunity we've been waiting for!  Unfortunately, I have nothing prepared to post today, but here are a few things that will be coming soon:

- Dan is in the process of making a new scratching post for our cat, Hunter
- I will be making fun gifts to ask my girls to be bridesmaids (I clearly can't give you any more details until later)
- Tons of wedding and home crafts! I am especially excited about programs, centerpieces, and invitations

That's all I need to say for now.  Happy DIY-ing!
