Product: CD Packaging!!

I had a vision of how I wanted our packaging to look, and I can finally say we’re getting closer!!! I REEEEAAALLLLY wanted these CD sleeves we’re using to be letterpressed with our logo. But as you might imagine (if you’re familiar with letterpress) it’s insanely expensive. { This is what it looks like } As in… it was going to cost an additional $200 for 50 of our CD sleeves. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t consider it. I hemmed and hawed over it for a good 2 weeks before deciding against it (for now anyways). Instead, I ordered a $40 stamp from Paperwink. And I have to say…. I’m super pleased with it!!! For now, we’re stamping with chocolate brown, not one of our business colors but it goes well with the chipboard CD sleeve…. and, well, I had chocolate brown ink left from our wedding invitations So why not use it! That’s all for now…. check back later for some baby cute-ness!

Project: Pink + Gray!

Here we go! Many of you have been patiently waiting for these to be posted…. either because you’re friends with someone involved in the shoot, know the location or you’re just plain excited 🙂 We decided back in late January to do this project. We picked the colors, we picked the location… then we had the task of whipping it all together! I had the best time doing this project… in a way, it was kind of like getting to plan my wedding all over again. 🙂 A little background on why pink & gray: I wanted to use my mom’s (now mine & Jeremy’s) wedding china. As you’ll see in the photos it’s trimmed in silver. I also decided to use her silver flatware. With that, we wanted to make it a little more modern, than traditional- so we thew in the peach & pink!  __________________________________________________________________________________ A special thank you to: Maxie B’s for the cakes & cupcakes, Rae’s Flowers Shop for the florals, Etsy Seller: ZuuZuu for the gray shrug, Etsy Seller Velvet Owl for the veil , Etsy Seller GoldenInvites for the all the paper goodies & Calligraphy by Carrie for the lovely penmanship!  Without further reading…. The location: One of my favorite places on earth… Moores Springs Campground. It’s owned by NC State as part of the neighboring Sertoma 4-H Center (where we got married, I spent many weeks of summer as a camper & 2 summers on staff…. aka… it holds a special place with me!). The campground flooded the end of last summer, and has been closed until further notice…. making it an even more perfect place for us to shoot… we wouldn’t be battling other people! Dress: Marshalls, and is for sale! Just email us if interested… it’s a size 5.Shoes: Pink: Manolo Blahnik (pretty sure these are seconds/irregulars)  Gray: Guess, from MarshallsGray Shrug: Etsy Seller, ZuuZuu (This shrug is sooo super soft! might get one myself!)Veil: Etsy Seller, Velvet OwlBrides Necklace: TargetBrides Bracelet: TargetBrides Necklace Flower: MichaelsBridesmaids Dress: TargetBridesmaids Necklace: Forever 21Bridesmaids Necklace Flowers: TargetTable Cloth & White Pillows: Gray twin sheet from IkeaPink Runner: Handmade, fabric from Mary Jo’sGray Floral Runner: Handmade, fabric from Mary Jo’sPaper Products: Etsy Seller, Golden Invites, Email Her!Calligraphy: Calligraphy by CarrieFlowers: Rae’s Flower Shop ( A lovely little mom & pop place!)Cakes & Cupcakes: Maxie B’s (YUM YUM!!)Pies: Homemade White Beverage Tub: TargetClear Spigot Jar: Crate & Barrel Desk: From my houseWing-back Chair: From my Dad’s houseChina: Ours: Inherited from Mom & DadFlatware: Ours: Inherited from Mom & DadChampagne Flutes: Crate & Barrel Stemless Champagne Flutes: Pier 1Wine Glasses: Target Many Many Many thanks to Kristi Owens for helping style & Trinette Atri for being a bride…. again! 🙂 You ladies are the best! ….. and Jeremy too…. for driving, helping shoot & supporting me!
