Sample Centerpieces

My Button Bouquet & Gris Gris Bags

My first finished DIY project!

a few of the shoes amber just posted remind me of this screen shot from Marie Antoinette.

Perfect Shoes 50 Dollars or Less !

I'm dying over all of these. If they're in your size and they match your dress you can consider this a shoe suggestion. Also, let me know if you suggest any of 'em for me! (Of course I'm partial to the lacy pink boots. Alas, too big for me.)

Octopi

Below is my favorite eight legged guy. I wear him every day. Below him are variations of the original. I've chosen the less expensive options. If you search the internet you can find more elaborate (and extremely more expensive) versions of these.

how about this one?

it goes well with the image on the tights, but i'm not sure how much black you wanted to incorporate. maybe i'll stick with a silvery one, since i'm not yet sure if the tights will work out. i ordered them in white, because i didn't want a weird fleshy prosthetic leg look, and i'm hoping they're not too opaque.
would you like us all in the same octopus?

Bridesmaids Unite !

In order to keep us somewhat uniform, I would like to order select pieces of our accessories from the same place. The Octopus has infiltrated my wedding. The boys have matching Octopus ties. The Groom's Cake is a giant, brooding thing with tentacles. I'll have one nesting in my hair, holding pearls.

I'd like each of you to choose an octopus from Etsy. They come in every color, including the traditional silver. Please stay away from the bronze/brown. *shudder* What an awful color.

We all know I can't rock a pair of high heels. Pittie was also sweet enough to remind me we'd be walking down a grass aisle. In light of this, I've considered spats. I freakin' love spats. Here are several options I'm extending to you too. You know, just in case you wanna wear a pair too!

Below are a handful of beautiful necklaces made by the same woman. I really did these. We can go with her OR we can rock some items by MinxesTrinkets:

And this guy is just so damn beautiful (and too expensive) I had to post it:

I found my bolero!!!

just kidding.

Accessories Commence

These are available by FrenchSugarVintage on Etsy. They run between 30-60.

Gabby, how does this shade of purple compare to your dress? (below)
