Details are in the Bag: Emma Gordon
Monday, November 16, 2009
Emma was kind enough to send me her line of bags last week and I’m definitely a fan! I love her sleek, contemporary aesthetic and – definitely my favorite parts of her designs – the visual interest added by all of her architectural details. While Emma’s line has your standard champagnes and whites, I’m also [...]
Twig & Thistle Plays with Our Patterns!
Monday, November 16, 2009
Now I normally don’t write about what other people did on their blogs outside of the week in review to let IB’s original content shine, but when I saw Twig & Thistle‘s post today, I had to make an exception. If you take a closer look at the above photo, I think you’ll quickly see [...]
Lovely Letters: Calligraphy by Anne Elser Design
Monday, November 16, 2009
If you follow the Inspired Bride on Twitter, you’ll know I’ve recently taken up hand lettering. I’ve always been doodling type in the margins of my notebooks, and decided to take a stab at doing it with calligraphy pens.

Do It Yourself Project: Modern Garden Notecard Printable
Thursday, November 12, 2009
Here’s another printable for you guys. This one is a note card that is a little more all occasion (note the lack of a “thank you” phrase on this one) though it’s the perfect post-wedding or post-bridal shower piece. I’ll make more color options for tomorrow. Hope you like them! Download the PDF here.

Wednesday, November 11, 2009
I haven’t blogged about Minted in a while, but they just finished up a great wedding suite challenge and voting has started.

Week in Review: November 6, 2009
Friday, November 6, 2009
The two tablescapes featured in this beautiful wedding on Green Wedding Shoes nearly took my breath away for their elegant simplicity; the details in this wedding on 100 Layer Cake are super cute and fresh – my favorite being the initial sign on the dessert table; Style Me Pretty‘s DIY table number fruit bags are [...]
