hair feather!



Have I mentioned how Etsy is my best friend?

I've gotten quite a few things from Etsy, and my most latest purchase is the hair fascinator that I will wear to the reception. I've known for a while now that I wanted a fancy, feathered hair piece for the reception, since I've always liked the look of these but would never just wear them for any occasion. Since this is my only real opportunity, I was very excited, and spent months finding the right one- since I wouldnt be wearing my veil to the reception, I wanted something fun! Etsy has so many talented people who create these things, and after much searching, I absolutely fell in love with this one from BellesandCrystals. This girl is amazingly talented, and this one-of-a-kind hair thing was just what I had been picturing, and it was made around an antique broach, which made me oh so happy. Of course it happened to be on the higher end price-wise, and more than I had wanted to spend, but after many weeks trying to find something better and failing, I decided that since my dress was all of $15, and I was getting such a great deal on my veil, that I could splurge a bit. So I've been making payments on this bad boy for a while and just finally got it paid off, and it arrived in the mail today! It is WONDERFUL! I'm so excited.


It came packaged all pretty and fun!


Here is is! I hate how my cell phone makes the pictures look blue. I still cant find my card adapter to take better pictures!


I am so excited. Now I am ready for my hair trial...hopefully I can find someone who has an awesome idea on how to wear it that wont require me changing my hair style up after the ceremony!

Me

I'm a newlywed with a love for the little things in life- sipping a cappuccino at a local coffee shop in the sunshine, art that seems to make no sense, the smile my husband gets sometimes when I catch him watching me, the cool breeze in the fall when the leaves are changing, my dog when she has somehow manages to wedge herself under my hand and I find myself petting her unknowingly, the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, taking photos of instances you can never get back. I feel too much about things but may not always say it. I adore my mother. You'll find I take a lot of pictures. La vita รจ bella.
