Thought we’d brighten up your Friday with some seriously cute new save-the-dates sent over by Viola of Chewing the Cud.
Erica and Abrahm are getting married in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, so they wanted their save-the-dates to reflect the colorful and textural surroundings.
Breana is a sommelier and Scott is a chef, so the idea of using food and drink pairings in their save-the-dates was the obvious solution!
And how cute is this lil guy down below?
Happy weekend everyone!
So many of you asked where you might be able to find those cute tea towels Danielle used for napkins at her gorgeous wedding, we figured we should do a little post on them. They are mighty cute. And pretty inexpensive if you buy them from restaurant supply sites by the dozen.
These are seriously all over the internet. You can just google ‘restaurant herringbone kitchen towels” and you’ll get a bunch of results, but if you’re looking for even more instant gratification, you can find them here:
Citisco
Ikea (but you can’t buy them online)
Cooking.com
Best Buy Uniforms
The WEBstraunt Store
Amazon
Mission Restaurant Supply
D.P. Textiles
Atomic Mall
Hi hi. Here’s the tutorial Jillian put together for the cupcake liner garland she did for Sunday Suppers. You can also see the project on Project Wedding’s blog, One Lovely Day, this week…
Dressing up a holiday celebration, (or wedding, of course) is always a nice touch. For a recent Harvest Dinner we decided to resurrect those adorable coffee filter garlands that have been so popular around the web and update them with some pretty fabric accents.
This project is super easy to make and adds such a pretty feeling to your celebration. Two 36″ strands require 4 – 5 packs of baking cups, depending on how loose or tight you want your garlands to be.
Tools & Materials:
Vintage fabric (or any sort of course) found on Etsy, and Tulle.
Craft & white cupcake liners. The white liners were tea dyed to soften the color a bit.
Heavy duty threading needle
Twine
Ribbon
Glue gun
How to:
If you’re going to tea dye your liners you’ll need to do that first and let them dry completely.
While they’re drying, cut your fabric and tulle into rounds using a cupcake liner as a guide. Lay out all of your liners and fabric rounds so you can arrange them in a stack in the order you like. The rest is pretty straightforward. Take a small stack and just thread your needle through the center of each piece.
Once you’ve got about 1/3 of your liners strung, space them out a bit so they’re as loose or tight as you want your garland to be. Then use your glue gun to attach some of the liners to the thread. This way you can control the spacing of your liners on the garland. You’ll need to let the glue dry before you continue, but luckily hot glue dries super fast. Then repeat the process until your garland is full. Finally, finish off each end of the garland with little bits of ribbon or lace.
This pretty wedding is so warm and festive, it’s perfect for the first day of December. You know, when the holiday spirit really takes off. And the venue looks amazing.

We don’t normally post things like this, but because lots of couples like to use a wedding photo for their first holiday card together, we couldn’t resist when Maureen of Pinhole Press sent over their brand new site. We love how the design lets the photo itself shine. Nice job ladies!
We can’t wait to see the lovely designs they come up with for the rest of the year.
