nearly there.

45 days until our marriage. Here i sit, in frisco, ready for the next two days off from work to package and address the invitations (a little behind schedule) make the blog (i can check THAT off the list!) and secure a plan B in case of rain... Our farmers almanac has claimed rain for three weeks up to our date, leaving a day or two for it all to soak up, leaving us with an icky, soggy yard...

We are planning on our old state park, located here in the neighborhood.

Last week i designed my corsages; layers of lace sewn and tucked in and folded over to make the shape of a flower head. Brown fabric, wooden buttons, and embroidery thread with our accent colors (indian paintbrush red and light yellow rose) bring them together. The sample is nearly complete- next is bringing the others to life...

I absolutely love this idea for the corsages because they WILL NOT DIE. And i will not have to make them the day before the wedding because of it. Ani has thought the same thing, and has begun his search for the perfect boutonnieres for his men... it should be pretty great:)
