Bride Ideas Sticky Notes
I absolutely LOVE Chronicle Books. I realized it after seeing them listed on favorite books as publisher time and time again, I got the hint and checked out their website and even their shop in San Fransisco. After that I was hooked. I visit their site every few month. Tonight I stumbled across an upcoming release – on September 16th Brides Ideas Sticky Notes comes out full of notes for flagging magazines, calls to make, and more. Awesome gift to help a bride stay organized or to treat yourself if you’re a bride!
Elum Desk Sets
I couldn’t resist sharing these beautiful letterpress desk sets I found at Elum this morning. Wouldn’t they make wonderful bridesmaid presents? I adore them! I’m particularly crazy about the yellow Aviary design, but they are all wishlist-worthy. Thought you might want to check them out at http://www.elumdesigns.com/shop/letterpress-desk-sets. Happy looking!
RESOURCES FOR BRIDES – Templates from Russell + Hazel
Oh my goodness, I just came accross a new online shop, Russell + Hazel. It’s amazing! You should definitely check it out for all of their stylish office supplies and gift ideas. But the really exciting bit is their free, beautiful and helpful templates for brides. In order to respect all the hard work that they did putting it together, I’ve listed out all the templates available and will give you the link to the containing page (rather than direct links for each template.) The link is http://www.russellandhazel.com/ideas_weddingtemplates.html. Enjoy!
