Good morning friends!! I am SO looking forward to this week! Besides dress shopping for the BFF, last week sucked. Big time. So I’m very happy to start a fresh new week! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, I did a SUPER fun shoot with one of my favorite couples that I cannot wait to show, along with a bajillion other things. It will happen soon. Promise.

Now, onto the goods. Since my last few Mad Loves have been pretty measly, I kicked it up a notch today. Plus I found a ton of eye candy this past week!

#1. This barn and those wooden lanterns KILL me. I want them. For my room…and everything else that I walk into!

#2. At the moment, I’m obsessed with this ring. Like, I want one for every finger. Ok, not really but I do like it a lot!

Speaking of, if you haven’t checked out the new and improved Knotty Bride, you’re missing out! Head over there now!

#3. Ok, this one’s for all you owl lovers out there. Over at Decor8 you can make your own custom owl calendar for freeeeee!! How fun is that?!

#4. Am I late to the party or is Pinterest a new thing? Most likely, I’m late but nevertheless, I just randomly found out about Pinterest and kind of got lost on it for hours. This pine cone ball and spool wreath are on my top faves list but there is SO much inspiration on that site, it’s crazy! I honestly, don’t really know how it all looks but it’s fun to look at =)

#5. My always favorite, Design Sponge has a tutorial on how to do these adorable postal stamp coasters! They’re super easy and cute!!

#6. There isn’t really anything special about this last pick. I just think it’s pretty, and I love Christmas time. So there.

Hope you enjoyed at least one of these picks! =)

Here’s to a fantastic week!!

Happppppy Monday!!!

I’m sure everyone is still full from the turkey holiday. I’m pretty sure I still am!I was going to dedicate this post to Christmas goodness but then figured it would be too soon, so I’ll just save that one for next time =)

Let’s get this party started!

#1. My favorite app for my iPhone right now is Instagram. It’s a FREE camera app that allows you to change the way the photo looks after you take it and you have an account where you can follow peoples streams and they can follow yours. Kinda like twitter but with photos =) It’s pretty fun!

#2. J.Crew bridal! Hollllllerrr!! I’m leaving tonight for LA to start my MOH (maid of honor) duties. It’s time for Wynter to start the search for THE dress and what better place to begin (and hopefully end) this search then J.Crew. Their gowns are totally unique, plus they’re great quality for a great price! What more could you ask for! Wish us luck!!

#3. Head over to The Wedding Chicks to find out how to make your own birdcage veil! I am absolutely smitten with these types of veils and think they’re so gorgeous on every bride! I think I’ll store this tutorial away for myself =)

#4. If you love Etsy and you’re getting married, try Wedzu. It’s pretty much an Etsy for weddings!! How awesome is that!?

I’m short on words today, literally heading out the door to get on the road! Have a wonderful week friends!

Happy Monday friends! Hope you all enjoyed your extra hour of sleep yesterday….unless of course you live in Hawaii, you don’t have to worry about setting back your clocks….annnnd you live on a gorgeous island and eat amazing pineapple and have beautiful clean beaches and nice tans and…..can you tell I’m a wee bit jealous?

Anyways, back to life in California. Here are some fun things I’ve been saving the past couple weeks! Enjoy =)

#1. Macha Jewelry on Etsy has some amazing, one of kind jewelry. I pretty much love this gold deco ring. Go check out her site if you love unique pieces like this.

2. Grab a box of tissues and head over to Style Me Pretty for this seriously out of this world proposal story. Seriously, go.

#3. Who loves music? Who loves FREE music? ME! The Down Player is a music site that has tons of info on new and old artists as well as free downloads! So have fun!

#4. I love going to Oh, Hello Friend each month and downloading a new monthly desktop background. They are always so stinkin cute, plus I love having a calendar in front of me at all times! So go download yours and lets be twinsies =)

#5. Another Etsy shop today, Perla Anne makes some gorgeous hand block painted designs. I’m pretty much a sucker for hand made things. If you are too, you should probably go browse around her shop! There are too many fun things so consider yourself warned from me =)

I hope you all enjoy this beautiful weather today! & have a wonderful week!
