Dell and I are off to Lake Placid for our summer vacation! Posting will be light next week as we'll be in the woods. While I'm gone, feel free to wander thru any of my other 601 (!!) posts for your wedding fix. I'll be posting about the resort where we're staying when I get back, I think it's going to be a great place for honeymoons, so I'll take lots of pictures! In the mean time, stay cool and come back and see me for regularly scheduled posting on the 4th of August.
**Anyone have any suggestions of things to do in Lake Placid?

These pieces from Z Gallery would be adorable on a buffet table, as centerpieces, or as decorations at the ceremony. Grouping all the different sizes together creates a nice effect. Candle holders and Lanterns, love them!

pass the pattern please

plates
While these are not my typical blue and white, I love the variations in the patterns. I would totally pair these with some wooden serving pieces for summer. Here for details.

heavy and not-so-heavy metals

bracelet2
If you were looking for something extra special to give as a gift or if you wanted a "little" something for yourself, either of these beautiful bracelets would be perfect (not to mention timeless). I cannot for the life of me decide which of these I like better... silver? gold? Don't know. Both available thru Vivre.

too hot.

foleyandcorrina
Sitting directly in front of the fan in my 120 degree livingroom, I feel as thought I will never be able to wear pants again. It's too hot. I will have to wear dresses for the rest of all time. I will start with this one by Foley + Corrina.

enjoy your weekends!

cookiefavors
These are cute! Having a winter wedding? A travel themed one? These would be adorable at the shower or as favors at the wedding. I love the detail in the snowflakes. I wish I knew how they did that. Thanks Brenda for the heads up!
Have a great weekend everyone! I'm off to my parent's place for an escape from the heat. Stay cool!

tired.

bangles2
Feeling like a little jewelry therapy tonight after a long day of tying ribbon and crunching numbers. These beauties come in a set of three from Zoe & Morgan, and are currently on sale at a delightful 40% off.

something to inspire

fashionill
For an illustrator turn fashion/wedding enthusiast it doesn't get better than this. I will be inspired/distracted/amused for weeks.

diy buttons

These DIY buttons would be a perfect party favor, especially if you dropped them into these cute little boxes. You know me, I love anything I can do myself! Both available thru Cox and Cox.

Happy Friday everyone! I'm getting my blog on from sunny Connecticut today, enjoying the nice weather and working pool-side. We're spending the weekend celebrating my birthday, my sister's birthday (we're twins), my mother's birthday, and my grandmother's birthday. There's going to be cake!
I spotted these amazing textiles by Les Indiennes over at Decor 8, and thought that anyone looking to fluff their nest might appreciate a link. Even if you can't splurge on their textiles their photos are amazing. I love the paradoxical mix of solid and dainty, familiar and exotic. Enjoy the eye candy and your weekends everyone!
