Wedding Wednesday : 45 Days and Counting!

Hey guys I am in full on wedding mode right now. I am also trying to squeeze in school work but the wedding is 45 days away and I have so much to do still. (and my dress is not in yet!!!) Right now I am working on my DIY stuff like this...

Ya I am out of the blue string but I think I might switch to my blue baker's twine and red for the heart. I am waiting patiently on my tumblers to come in for me to decorate for my bridal shower planners (all 10 of them!) I am working on my gifts for everyone like my groom, bridesmaids, parents of bride & groom and groomsmen. I am not making all of those but I am making a bunch like the parents I am embroidering them a handkerchief, I am etching beer mugs for the brothers, and I am debating on making my gift to The Mister. 
I did find this shirt on Etsy and I think it is just too awesome not to get for The Mister, but I am second guessing myself and I may just make him something but I am not sure yet. What are y'all thoughts?

We got The Princess flower girl dress over the weekend and she loves prancing around in it. She said she felt so beautiful like a real princess or a bride. She is seriously just too cute. 

So what have y'all been doing? I want to live vicariously through y'all while I am stressed with wedding and school stuff.

Lunchtime is the Prime Time

I rarely take a full hour for my lunch break. I finish my food in 15-20 minutes and I never leave my desk. Sometimes I feel I want to relax a bit.

Can you think of any better way to spend a lunch break? Embroidering a birthday gift for my cousin (Happy B-day to my favorite big-little cousin Rae-Rae!!) and watching Firefly. O yes my food was good too but I was enjoying crafting too much.

How do you relax during your lunch break?

My Latest Obsession

Like I said in a previous post I am currently loving embroidery. I love that it is instant gratification. Don't get me wrong I still enjoy crocheting but I cannot finish my blanket for the life of me. It is taking forever and I get bored with it quickly. Any whoo here are some of the things I have been working on.

Leaf me alone
This was my first attempt. I think the image is super cute, I found the sketch on pinterest.

Dr. Suess
Who doesn't love a Dr. Seuss quote? I have this guy framed in the living room. I think it is so cute and it fits since the Mister and I are both a little odd.

book mark
This is my book mark. I attached felt on the back. I am in the process of making one for The Mister's dad for his birthday.  I am seriously loving my new found hobby!

What have you been crafting lately?
