We found some mirrors for our master bathroom. Our initial plan had been to buy a whole set of stuff from Pottery Barn. The mirrors, the hooks, the towel bars, the toilet paper holders, etc. Which, obviously, would have ended up being muy expensivo. I won't even disclose how much. But then we found these mirrors at Target, and they were much much cheaper. And we held them up in the bathroom, and they look really nice. Here they are, just leaning...
We also found a line of stuff we like at Lowes for the other stuff, and it will also be cheaper than at Pottery Barn. So, there you go.
We're supposed to move in about two weeks. There is still a lot to be done at the new house, so they need to start shaking a leg.
As my mom so graciously reminded me, I have yet to post a photo of the new bedding we bought. This would be why. It isn't too easy to photograph and get accurate colors. But, here you go. The one color is a beautiful champagne color, the other one is a shimmery slate blue color. Very pretty. Crisp white sheets and it will look perfect.
Add that to new bedroom furniture (which we will buy after we move into the new house and save up a little money) and our bedroom will be a beautiful oasis! We're trying to decide between the following two sets:
Though I like this one, I think I'm leaning toward the one below instead:
They have the first one in the store, but the second one we've only seen online. Both sets would need to be ordered, so we just need to decide.
Wedding-wise, accomplished a few things.
Picked up my wedding dress on Friday evening, and it fit perfectly. Held my shoes up next to it, and it looks wonderful together.
Did a bunch of research on the jewelry situation. Went to a local store to see about having it all made, and that was going to be quite expensive. Plus they didn't have it all in stock and they weren't willing to order it. So, that is out. After much searching, I found a fabulous website: www.kiradesigns.com. They have designs, and you get to choose the color Swarovski crystals you want in it. Woo hoo!! And the pricing is not too bad at all. I am going to get my necklace, my earrings, my hair comb, and Aspen's necklace from this site. I've sent away for some samples of the crystals, to decide on the colors I exactly want. And then after they arrive and I decide, I can place the order!
Chris made a "secret" trip somewhere in town on Saturday and isn't giving any hints!!! It has to do with his wedding gift to me, and I seriously can not think of what it could be. I'm so curious!
I have GOT to set up a meeting for the flowers. And get the music underway. Then I won't be so stressed. Going to call some local florists this week to see if they think it would be possible for them to do it and us to just take it to Fredericksburg with us. I'd rather work with someone here in town. We'll see.
I need some HELP!!!! Please give me some ideas, ladies. Decorating ideas. I don't want to do a ton. But I don't want it to seem vague and undone either. For the reception, I basically have a square perimeter to work with. The center is out, and overlooks the courtyard where we'll be married. There is a black iron railing around the inside and outside of the square. Help!!!! Do I do something with fabric? With tulle? Paper lanterns? I'll have a simple flower centerpiece for each table, but what else????????????

I wasn't able to see any of the pictures. :(
I think doing something with tulle would be very pretty! Light and airy. I think it would be just the right touch!
