last week....

I have been working on more of the jewelry and flowers. I made my necklace and it turned out better then i thought it was going to. I also got Clint's and one of the groomsman's boutonnières done. They are different but i love the way they turned out.

I am really excited about the bridesmaids packages. I just got the last 2 sent out today :)

I got to hang out with one of my bridesmaids on Saturday. I gave Dana her Bridesmaid's Info pack (they each contain a personal letter, a pair of earrings designed especially for them, and an info sheet). She accepted and loved the earrings. They were a bit too long but i fixed them.

I made my first venture to David's Bridal with Dana in tow. I really wanted at least one of my friends to be with me when i went so i jumped at the chance to have her with me. I tried on a LOT of different dresses. I fell in love with one but it is a bit pricey ($600) so i will probably go with my second choice. It was a lot of fun though. Dana has pretty much decided on her dress so when we got home i got to design her necklace with her. We went to the mall and hung out and it was just a lot of fun. I only wish that my other girls had been there with me....
