Spring Inspiration From Martha Stewart Weddings

Hello little owls! This past weekend I was so inspired by the Spring 2011 Martha Stewart Weddings magazine, that I had to share some favorites with you. For another sneaky peeky, check out my video review of this as well by clicking here.

I'm dying for this gorgeous color palette for Spring, Summer and Fall. Who says bridesmaids can't wear shades of ivory?

Confetti programs are such a great way to have a beautiful recession back down the aisle without too much coordination!

Etsy Spotlight: Nature-Inspired Jewelry From Lana0Crystal

Hi everyone! Long time, no talk, right? Well I'm back today with an Etsy spotlight that I'm thrilled about. I've been following Lana0Crystal for over a year now, and I'm such a huge fan of her work. It's so hard for me to not make a purchase every time I visit her Etsy shop! In fact, I only have one piece from her, believe it or not, and it's one of my favorite necklaces I own (to see what it is, click here for the Lana0Crystal video feature!). I love, love, love nature-inspired jewelry, and Lana's pieces are just that with a vintage twist. I'm in heaven. Using mostly metals, stones, crystals and pearls, Lana's jewelry is such a great bridesmaid gift idea, especially for a vintage-inspired wedding.

It was incredibly difficult to pick only a few items to showcase for you today, but I did narrow it down some! Take a looksie. Please note that all photos are courtesy of Lana0Crystal.
