jar junk

pictures in the collage via fallfoundations, Midwest Girl and Oh Lovely Day It's probably not the latest idea to use jars as environmental- and budget friendly wedding deco items. But I still like them. As laterns, picture frames, drink glasses...

picture showing a chandelier made from joghurt jars via homeqn.com Dave* has an obsessive jar collector. So this post is dedicated to his little obsession. He is even enjoying the process of getting the labels off and has purchased a special cleaning liquid to do that. They quite handy for all the sewing accessories in my studio!

alternatives to wedding bands

photos found here and here I did some wedding tattoo research, though I am not totally into the idea. I love real jewelry too much and also love the traditonal idea of exchanging the rings. That would obviously not work with tatoos. Anna And the Ring is on wedding band hunt. As a doctor she has to wash her hands all the time and is not a massive fan of loads of bling on her hands. She already "has to" wear this stunning engagement ring.

For all the tatoo lovers among you or as an additional idea, ON TOP OF A RING ; ) , you can find my favorites above! As well as HERE & HERE

More wedding band inspiration from my blog this way.

share your bed with others!

Photo by Chris Craymer An old-fashioned wedding ritual does still take place in THAILAND today. Don’t be alarmed if you are led to the honeymoon suite to find an old couple sitting on your bed waiting to greet you! The idea is that an old couple are evidence of a long and successful marriage. Their knowledge and good luck is then imparted to the newlyweds in a number of different ways. They may say how ‘lucky the bed feels’ hinting that the newly married couple will have children. Bags of rice and coins may be placed on the bed along with a number of other items all acting as symbols of prosperity and fertility. Tradition states that the newlyweds share their bed with these objects for the next 3 nights. You may be relieved to hear that the old couple don’t also stay in the bed for 3 nights!
