Bridesmaids Gifts Continued...

I have been packing everything up to get ready to go to my home state for the wedding. I will be getting there 2 weeks early so that I can finalize a bunch of things before the Big Day. However, my efficient packing system has cause me to forget to take lots of pictures of all of my projects! Such as... the Bridesmaid's jewelry. It is beautiful! And, of course, oh so sparkly. I wanted to wrap them in a special way to took ivory paper embossed a "Thank You" note on each package. I then wrapped with a pretty satin pink bow. I then stuck each one in the girls' goody bags!

I bought each of these organizing utility totes from Thirty One Gifts. They had SO many neat bags but thought that these totes would be great to use for a variety of purposes.

I love to hear other people's gift ideas. What did you get your bridesmaids?

XOXO,

The Ring(s)!

Mr. K and I picked out our wedding rings a couple of weeks ago. The great thing about this blog is that friends and family have yet to know about it... so I can leak all of the secrets I want! First of all, Mr. K is tough. He has never worn jewelry before so finding a ring that he would feel comfortable wearing for the rest of his life was going to be a challenge. He was so darn picky! It had to be manly, it had to be sturdy but not heavy, it needed to be solid but not clunky... AGH! We searched and searched. He found a few he liked here and there but nothing that truly caught his eye. When we went to Jared's a couple of weeks ago, his ring immediately caught my eye... I KNEW he would pick it. It screamed his name! Sure enough, without me saying a word he got all excited and said... "That one! I want to see that one!" Nothing else would do. We had found his ring!



Now it was my turn! I was excited, nervous and anxious to find a beautiful wedding band... in our budget. Sure enough... it was at Jared's as well! I love it and can't wait to get to wear it!



Now... have you seen my gorgeous engagement ring that Mr. K picked out all by himself? I don't think I have... if I have be a dear friend and please look again because I love to show it off!!! :)
