Cute Valentine’s Day Gifts for Couples

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

While browsing through The Pink Book Blog this morning, I came across these adorable pillow cases from Bold Loft that Pink Lady Kathleen recommended for your honeymoon. But why not use these sweet little accessories for Valentine’s Day, too? I absolutely love the coffee cups!

Gorgeous Hair Accessories

Monday, July 21st, 2008

I loved my rhinestone hair clip from Ficcare so much so that I insisted on using it. Regardless of my hairstyle, I knew I wanted a hairstylist who could find a creative way to use this gorgeous clip.

Though I was happy with my hair clip, it took me a long time to decide what I would use to decorate my hair. From tiaras to crystal detailed bobby pins there are so many glamorous ways to style up your do. Here’s a few I love.

HEADBANDS. This Swarovski Crystal Headband brings back sweet, childhood memories.

HAIRPINS. Delicate hairpins add pizazz to any hairdo. Check out these jewels from Lynn Litwin.

TIARA. When I tried one on for the first time, I felt like a princess. Even if you aren’t planning on getting one, I say at least try one on. You may be surprised.

Ebay, Etsy

Friday, May 23rd, 2008

When I got married, I made the decision to splurge on the “must-haves” and save on all the other stuff. As a result, I spent hours…no, days…hmmm, maybe months?…. of my life scouring eBay for the perfect steal. As a result of my hard work, I scored tons of goodies on the cheap - including all the vases for the candy buffet, votive candles, my flower girl’s dress, my ring bearer’s pillow, bridesmaid gifts, a guest book and more! I was so successful, that etiquette guru and author Leah Ingram wrote about me in her book: Buying & Selling Your Way to a Fabulous Wedding on Ebay.

So, as you can see, I love eBay for finding wedding deals. However, one of the top divas over here at Wedding Paper Divas, recently turned my attention to the shopping site Etsy and I was disappointed that this wasn’t around in my day. Etsy is like eBay, but all the products sold on this site are handmade. This is a great place to look for gifts, jewelery, and decorating accessories. Check out some cute finds that would would go great with one of my favorite stationery designs, Vintage Damask.
