So, when i left you i was swooning over the awesomeness of polka dots. Specifically, white polka dots on a turquoise background. After a long, loooong fight with the Adobe suite of programs (seriously, designer people, do you have an extra Adobe gene? Not. Easy.), i managed to wrangle some polka dots of my own into cooperation.
And then i kind of got a little crazy with the design ideas.
Okay, in my defense, check this out:
Via Once Wed.
Do you see? The red-and-white baker’s twine? With the darling little red button? Tied around a turquoise-and-red invitation suite? Do you SEE IT UP THERE CALLING TO ME?!
So. I may have decided that my own invitation suite needs to be tied up in string. I may have then ordered the world’s largest bale of red-and-white twine. I mean. How can you resist this delight?
(via We Sell Coffee, oddly enough)
It is all the red-and-white baker’s twine in all the world. And i am going to decorate my life with it! Seriously, i am head over heels for this stuff. I can tie it around my invitations! I can tie it around my bouquet! I can tie it around my guests!
…just kidding. I promise i’m (more or less) sane still. But i did find a pretty sweet deal on some dear little red buttons, so i’ve ordered them too:
(Via vintagehomestyle on Etsy.)
I mean. Can you not imagine the possibilities? Twine! Buttons! THE MOST ADORABLE INVITATION PACKAGING EVER!!
If you have extra items from your wedding (twine, buttons, baloons, etc….), I’d be interested in perhaps purchasing from you when you’re all done! My wedding will be at GE next fall and the colors are light blue, red and ivory. I’m also in love with tea-length dresses and birdcage blushers… and hydrangeas and baby’s breath. I’m excited to see how yours comes together since we seem to have similar taste. Hope to see day-of pics!
