My dear, dear friend H is getting married to a wonderful guy. And since H's closet is a rainbow of the most unique and fantastic pieces of clothing and she weilds them with awe-stricking prefection mixed with reckless abandon, we decided to go with lots of color.
Starting with the invitations:
(John, through some diligent YouTube searching and a few phone calls, figured out how to make our own letter-press plates. A post on that coming soon.)
Then with some watercolored flags (we used canvas paper to keep them from wrinkling when they were saturated with watercolor):
Then we made this sign by repuposing the frame from the necklace organizer and adding some words formed in 12-guadge wire (John explained that it's the same wire people use when forming things with concrete; so next time you're making your concrete slabs, just squirel some of that wire away for crafts), which we wrapped in yarn/crepe paper streamers.
And H's roommate M did the most incredible job with the loveliest fruit pizza's and other colorful fare I've ever seen:
Including a vegetable portrait of the bride:
Looks just like her, right?
You're lovely, H. So happy for you.
You are just, like Martha Stewart, but with a sweet spirit to you.
