I was in Target today when I came across the summer issue of Martha Stewart Weddings. I’ve been more inclined as of late to flip through wedding magazines [probably thanks to my older sister who has been handing me tear outs of magazines with inspiration pictures, which I'll have to scan for you all because I now have a new centerpiece idea. A lot more spendy than the first but it makes my heart pitter-patter just so] and have even been tempted to buy one. I don’t know how much longer I should hold out.
But I digress, I flipped through it to see what the Martha had for this season and there was a lot of DIY stuff in there, like it was some kind of DIY issue. Okay, it was their DIY issue. Anywho, while I was flipping through, this little ditty caught my eye:

The flowers in the garland and the chandelier are made out of paper doilies! I want that chandelier to hang from our wedding canopy. Wouldn’t that be lovely to marry under? And it would be a relatively simple project to tackle, which is good because I can see my project list spiraling out of control as we speak. I will have to sit down one day and write out every project I want to create to make sure I’m not getting in over my head.
Can I also admit that I was thisclose to trying to find some doilies at Target to try this project out today? I even thought about stopping at Michael’s to pick some up and probably would have if it wasn’t for the mozzarella cheese I bought and didn’t want left in the car on a pretty warm day.
There’s always tomorrow.
