About Mrs. Cherry Blossom

On average, I’d like to say I get about 2 - 3 packages a week at work. It’s a good thing they come straight to me, because if someone else had to sign for and deliver them, I think they’d get a little P’Od.

My veil arrived y’alls! It is super simple, and ubberly sexily gorgeous. It arrived super fast and I couldn’t wait to rip that sh*t open, hence the sharty pics of me modeling them while Mr. CB obliged and took two quick snaps of me in it before retreating back to watching TV with a few grunts of approval.

It comes with a sheet of instructions on how to put it on and the proper way to hang and store your veil. I have to scour my death trap of a closet to find pant hangers with the clip. For now, they are hibernating for another 3 months in the box as is… well after I tried it on, of course.

Long but not too long. So flowy and pretty, yeah? And for $47.74 with shipping. It’s a steal!!!!

A while back I had also ordered a gazillion rolls of ribbon from Papermart for my million DIYs along with my clear PVC boxes for my favors. I was real picky about the colors, chocolate brown was not a hard color to find, neither was a pastel pink but I was adamant on wanting my “pink” colors to be more of a mauve. So when I ordered my ribbons and bridemaids’ dresses, I wasn’t sure what pink I’d get but you know what? I totally scored and got lucky! Mauve for ribbon and EuroBerry for sash. And look, they matchy matchy. How you like them apples?

Where did you get that pink ribbon? I looked on the Papermart website but the rose looks darker and the pink looks lighter.

Susanne K / Sara: I bought the ribbon from papermart. The color is hard to tell on the website and it sure looks a lot lighter than I wanted but I took a chance and Rosy Mauve is definitely the color that I have. Here is the direct link:

Good luck!
