Monday Deals



Scratch 'N Save the Date!

Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend.

A Hot Pink Petticoat's current bride-in-residence, Bi-Coastal Bride, recently posted pics of her Save the Dates and I can't even begin to tell you how impressed I am with them. Not only are they super creative and personalized, but they're also interactive! Check it out.



Each recipient has to scratch the front of the Save the Date postcard in order to reveal the date of the big day. Pretty fun, non? Each 'sticker' on the postcard represents a special moment/event/venue in the couple's relationship. For example, the Dave Matthews 'sticker' is from one of the first concerts Bi-Coastal Bride and her fiance attended together. Can you believe that Bi-Coastal Bride's fiance hand drew each 'sticker'? Pretty awesome.

Lucky for you Bi-Coastal Bride is kind enough to share her template with you!! That's right, you too can create your own Save the Date postcard with 'stickers' from your own relationship. Click here to take you to A Hot Pink Petticoat's site for the free DIY template. Thanks Bi-Coastal Bride!

Blogger Block.....

....is what I'm suffering. I'm sure you've noticed the lack of 'stimulating and thought provoking' content on my blog as of late. Okay, I hear the snickering, maybe more like just a lack of original content. ;) Please forgive me. I'm going to go on a little blogger vacay and see if I can rejuvenate the creative writing juices. Don't worry, I'll still be blog stalking you (tee hee) and I'll still post up upcoming events, deals & steals when I can.

See you in a couple of weeks.

p.s. Feel free to leave me tips on how to get ride of blogger block.

Hope my fellow Canadians are enjoying Thanksgiving Monday. As Robin on How I Met Your Mother has said, it's the real Thanksgiving. :) The BF and I are cooking are first Thanksgiving dinner together and having a few friends over (in fact, the same friends who introduced us to each other!).

For those of you enjoying Columbus Day off, hope you score some great shopping deals.

Check out the BF's sweet potato pie....can't wait to dig into it

DIY Birthday Gifts

My lovely friend Christine's birthday is this week and a bunch of us decided to celebrate last Friday night. The night started here and ended here. ;)

Both S. and I decided to make Christine's BD gifts (something I've never done).

This is S's creation. Gorgeous, non? The keyholes were purchased from an antique market in Milan. To see some of S's other creations, click here.


This is my creation....a lovely feather hair clip. (I'm just happy you can't see the glue!!). I bought the feathers from Sussman's Bridal Supplies on Queen Street and the gold button from macFAB.


Worried that Christine would pretend to like my clip and then put away it in a drawer, I also bought her Nina Garcia's latest book, The Style Strategy. Have you've read it yet? I just bought myself a copy and awaiting its arrival!

What was your latest DIY project? Did it turn out?

To Christine - Hope you have a fabulous birthday week!

Best all of, Lisa is DIYing everything she can (invites, decor etc.). Intrigued? Well, in order to hear more about Lisa's wedding plans and DIY projects, we have to make sure she wins the contest! Click here and vote for Lisa now. You do have to register with Wedding Bells in order to vote but it will only take a few minutes and it would mean the world to me and Lisa!
