All my wedding creations are complete-
the banner for the rehearsal dinner
and treat bags for each place setting at the rehearsal dinner were finished up last night.
Today we will buy Steve's clothes for the rehearsal dinner (I took care of mine in May)
after we drop off paintings in Carpinteria for an upcoming group show.
Steve asked me what I will do now that I'm done with the wedding - except for the actual event in 12 days.
I began this morning by removing all of the patriotic touches around the house.
And, I am working my way through the house changing vignettes here and there to make the house welcoming for family members who will arrive next week.
Books on my old sewing box in the entry
are held up by some fun little birdcage bookends I found at Michael's the other day.
I went to Michael's for a chalk pen to finish the last chalkboard and ended up spending $85 on "stuff" in the dollar bins - I couldn't pass up the bookends or the cute little striped bags and who doesn't need Scrabble bandaids?
A birdcage that will be used at the wedding left an empty space in the entry so I decided that a basket full of dishes would look cute - it's my house and I can showcase whatever I want - right?
And now it is time to go out to my little garden house to play.
I wasn't going to participate in Where Bloggers Create
But, the link party is always fun and it's a good incentive to get things organized.
Be sure to check out Karen's blog on Friday, July 11 where everyone will be linking up their creative space.
Or better yet, show off your own space.
