Some of my loves include Lord of the Rings, Sherlock Holmes, knitting, opera, musicals, Etsy, baking, and of course, Mr. Cinnamon Buns. We're keeping our wedding close to home---the venue isn't very far from our house, and we live within walking distance of 6 bridal salons. I'm using the wedding as an excuse to try out every craft project I possibly can, with the endless help and support of my fiance.

How cute would these rings be for when we take photos with the bridal party?

They’re just the colour of Cinnamon Buns’s shirt and what I want the bridesmaids’ dresses to be! We ladies could do some silly photos with butterflies on our fingers! They could be all the same, or I could get the Monarch butterfly and get the smaller ones for the girls…The girls might even be able to tuck them into their bouquets for the ceremony. (I wouldn’t make them wear them for that part. Unless they wanted to, I guess!) And at only seven dollars, they could be squeezed into the budget somewhere. That looks like much nicer felt than the stuff they sell at Michaels.

Butterflies have nothing to do with our theme or our wedding at all—I just love these rings! Do you have anything random like that that you want to work in?
