Bed of Roses

I am having a lazy afternoon browsing the internet and feasting on chocolate (all guilt free after this morning's half marathon, whoop!) and have come across this great website I've not seen before- www.heylandandwhittle.co.uk, I particularly love these rose bed shaped cocoa butter soaps that would be just perfect as favours. xox

back!

I'm so happy to be back! While I have no news (they didn't do an ultrasound this morning, so I'll have to wait a few weeks to find out if it's a boy or a girl) I am excited to get back to blogging and to work at Kenzie Kate. Thank you to everyone who left name suggestions. I will revisit this problem in a few weeks!
I got an exciting email from Becky Kelso last week about her new website and corresponding sale. Enter the code "OPAL" at checkout until the end of March and get a 25% discount off anything on her new site. I thought I'd post about that first off, in case any of you might like to do a little discount shopping!

yes. now am stuck on chalkboards and typewriters (please, someone buy that chalkboard before i do: i do not need a chalkboard. i do not need a chalkboard. i do not need a chalkboard. i... )

why typewriters? for a clever guest book, of course... i read it somewhere... any readers have a link to typewriter as guest book? i don't care if it's been done, i love it. that and polaroids. love.

viabella: custom bridal clutches

{ ivory linen silk-lined clutch }

the perfect little bridal bag, lined with silver dupioni silk, with your choice of pearl/dupioni silk rose (shown above), shabby chic linen flower, or just plain vanilla. the ivory version (bottom left, below) has a pale "something blue" silk interior, but i think my favorite has to be the scooters.

viabella loves custom orders, will work with your fabric, and also makes cosmetic cases, zipper pouches, and eyeglass cases for great bridal party gifts.
