About Me

San Diego, CA
Welcome to my blog! I'm Shawndene and I started this when planning my dream vintage/rustic-inspired wedding, which was on September 17, 2011. I've decided to keep this blog, although I will no longer be posting wedding-related posts (ok, maybe just a few because I can't help myself)! You'll find mostly DIY crafts, baking, who knows what else...anything I'm into for the moment probably :) Please feel free to comment on any of my posts! Thanks for stopping by!

DIY Cake Topper

I got this wood letter "K" at Michael's for $2
 Painted it pink
 Added a little bling (also from Michae'ls-$2)
 Covered the thing in bling
Ta-da!  $4 cake topper, I love it.  I saw one that looks just like this on The Knot's shop, guess how much....$168!  Seriously?

Shutter Seating Chart

I found my next DIY prjoect :)  My uncle Mike's girfriend, Jennifer, got me old wooden shutters and I'm going to paint them and hang the seating chart on them, kind of like in these pictuers...  Guests won't have to take anything with their name on it, I'll just have all the names alphabetized so they can see what table number they'll be at.



What color do you think I should paint the shutters?  white, blue, green??

Displaying family wedding pics

I always thought this was a cute idea to display our family wedding photos and I really fell in love with it when I saw this...

Wedding Tree

I love the idea of doing this wedding tree, kind of as a guestbook.  If we do end up doing the tree, we still might have a guestbook.  But isn't it soo cute?!  Have a little stamp pad out and guests can thumb print their "leaf" and sign their name next to it.  After we can hang it in our house & have a reminder of all the guests that came to our wedding :)
