I thought mid-week was a perfect time for a little wintry wedding inspiration board in soft blues with touches of glittering whites. Don't you just love the shawl and clutch?

When the holidays come around, I love putting together fun inspiration boards. Now, you might not want to have this many stripes at your event - but I just couldn't resist showing you all the possibilities for incorporating stripes into a holiday wedding. Even a bridal shower would be perfect for this theme.

I'm now signing off until Monday when I'm back with a look at what's hot in weddings for 2011. Please be sure to also visit the Holiday Weddings section in case you might have missed any of the earlier posts - there's some great ideas for last minute party decor here. Wishing all of my readers a blessed holiday filled with love and wonderful times with family and friends.

With the holidays just around the corner and hopefully some pretty white fluffy snow will soon be falling at our house, I wanted to put together a winter wonderland inspiration board with stars as the main theme. It's also a great theme for New Year's weddings too.

I'm recently fallen in love with the felted acorns that became quite popular this fall and after seeing a tutorial on how to make them, I can honestly say I do not have the patience to try this at home. But it doesn't stop me from appreciating the work of others that create felt crafts. For me, it's the perfect material for winter creations. Today, I've put together an inspiration board for a felted winter wedding using items that can be found from etsy artists.

It seems like ages since I've put together an inspiration board for you. But, today is finally the day when I have a brand new one to share with you. I'm really liking these colors together, but what I love even more, is that each item you see in this inspiration board was found on etsy.
