windmill place cards [wedding diy]

there's something about these
windmills that i absolutely adore.
i originally saw them in a martha
stewart wedding magazine and fell in
love, ever since then, and knew i
wanted to incorporate them into the
theme of the wedding.

something i came up with is place cards!
here's how you can make some yourself:

depending on how big you want
them, cut a square equal on all
sides. i wanted them to be tiny. as
shown in the picture below:
[i also precut tons of the paper so i'm
more efficient when making them].

i also hand cut these little
banner like pieces to be able to put
the guests' names on them.

here's the end result after hot
glue gunning the banner piece to the windmill.
all that's left is the guests' names to write!

maybe i like them because they're so simple
yet, look so intricate and sophisticated.
i hope everyone likes them as much as me!

[i'll post the windmill tutorial as promised soon!]

2 months until the wedding!

my my, has time just flown!
the wedding is a little less than
two months away now! ahhh!
i'm feeling so many emotions!
scared, happy, nervous, anxious, excited.
you name it, i'm probably feeling it.

chris and i already had our
bachelor/bachelorette parties.
so at least now that's
squared away!
one less thing checked off our lists! phew!

now we're in the red zone. everything
needs to be done! and i can't think
straight because i feel like there
really isn't too much time left!

i know, i know. it'll be fine. i'm just
feeling really anxious!
*deep breaths, candy, deep breaths!*

hang in there with me and these short
posts. i promise that they'll get better!
i'm just so busy!
i feel like the rabbit in
alice in wonderland jumping around
and saying, 'i'm late, i'm late, i'm late'
except i'm bouncing off the walls saying,
'no time, no time, no time!' lol
