Guess Who’s Back?

August 16th, 2011 @ 1:30 pm by Miss Doily

I survived a move and a family reunion this weekend. I’m mostly unpacked, and am looking forward towards orientation for my new job. As if I couldn’t be any more excited, this was waiting for me when I came home:

Guess Who’s Back? :  wedding accessories cedar rapids 1 1

Guess Who’s Back? :  wedding accessories cedar rapids 2 2

What could it be?

Well, whatever it was, it came in this cute little box! Aw, so cute and pink, just like me!

And when I opened the box, this was staring up at me:

I followed in the footsteps of Mrs. Pain Au Chocolat, Miss Candy Apple, Miss Macarons, and other bees and got my moniker in tiny form. Well, not so tiny, but small enough!

When looking for shops on Etsy, I came across Fimo in Love. She had already incorporated doilies into some of her pieces. So I sent a message to Alexia, seeing if she could do anything for me. She sent me back a picture of a rough draft doily charm. I fell in love. We talked over the final details and within a couple of days she had the final product for me. She shipped it off from Roma, Italia and it reached me safely about two weeks later. This little darling will be nestled into my bouquet somewhere.

Now that I have a little closet full of wedding stuff, this whole seven month countdown is starting to become a lot more real.

What little details were/are important for you to incorporate?
