    Ok... I am spending WAY too much time at places like Michaels, TJ Maxx, Marshalls and Ross lately!!! I just bought some adorable shabby frames for our memorial table... and I also finally found wood "love" cutout letters that I'm going to paint white. Anyone else loving the wedding excuse for buying decor or cute household things?! Online I get my kicks at www.save-on-crafts.com ! Share your favorite places!

    Love it! My mom and I make weekly trips to Hobby Lobby just to check out what they have, we don't always have a project in mind. In fact, I can tell you when anything is out of place in the wedding aisle even though we've never bought anything from that particular aisle. Also, everytime we're in any kind of store we look for things that could potentially be used for the wedding. I really like finding wedding things in non traditional places and repurposing them for our wedding in some way! So fun, we did it with my sister's wedding too. After I'm married we'll have to find a new hobby...probably baby shopping even though we won't have kids for a couple of years.

    eeh, I feel you!! I was just telling my Fi I'll be so sad when the wedding is over because wedding planning has been a fun "project"! I also love repurposing things... a lot of the decor I've bought will fit in great after the wedding, but I'm so excited because I just bought bride and groom signs from a bride that will be used for the third time at my wedding. I love the idea of recycling something and benefitting from other good wedding vibes!

    I love having a reason to walk around Michaels about once a week.  I don't know if I necessarily love wedding shopping, but I love having something to fill my time now that I'm not working full time.
