Destinations and places

I was perusing Martha Stewart Weddings and found this really cute idea. Traveling is so fun and I wish I had the space to create a travel area in my home. I currently have a shelf with some tasteful knickknacks. :) Anyway, these ideas are specific to destination weddings, but I just like them in general, especially the picture frame.

In the process...

I think it's fun seeing projects from the beginning, so a few weeks ago I took some pictures while I was making an order for 4 Ivory Silk Clutches with a Ruffled Flower (and pearls).

Sew on the purple line... uh oh, which one!

All 4 ready to be sewed!

All done!

RAW Part II

It has been about three weeks since the RAW showcase I attended. If you missed the post about what RAW is, check it out here. The event itself was so much fun and I really enjoyed talking to everyone that stopped by! I would recommend participating to anyone and check them out to see if there's one near you.

Here are some pics from that night:

That's me!
