It’s been a while since we have a Wedding Wednesday in this blog. I promise you, you’ll love this one. Do you remember these fabric invitations we did for Jeff & Jessica’s wedding last Fall?

Well, I was such at joy today to find out that Josh McCullock, the photographer of the big day, has posted tons of photos on his blog of the actual wedding day. Jessica was a friend of mine and it was such a bummer that I couldn’t come to the big day, but Josh did such a wonderful job capturing the day!

Jessica looks so pretty! The birdcage veil and the feathery hair accessories looks amazing on her.

She also mostly DIY the decorations. Don’t you love the old photos hung on tree bark? And of course the mason jar. Looks so lovely and really fits the vintage-barn wedding theme!

The ring-bearer also held responsible bearing a wagon filled with baby flower girls. How cute is that?! The ceremony takes place outside the barn.

Love this “tree lighting” inside the barn, which is where the reception was held. The color combination is one of my favorites! We actually did some labels too for their food buffet with matching design to their invitation. Wish I could show them to you!

I love that last send-off picture so much. It has so much energy and just so charming! Please visit Josh’s blog to view more of this wedding photos and visit his portfolio to view more of his works!

Is it spring already? My cold shivering feet certainly don’t think so. But I just can’t resist to post these fluttery loveliness. The white porcelain with outlined illustration is so pretty. The butterfly that hides beneath the cup looks like a gentle spring peeking out of a white winter to me. Such a nice little surprise!

As if keeping one blog is not consuming my time enough, I’ve decided to take on another project. Since the end of last year, I’ve been contemplating on doing “something-a-day” project to challenge myself creatively everyday. I promise you it was not because I watched Julie and Julia :)

So, at the end of December 2009, I was writing down my 2010 resolution and as a devout (trying to!) Christian, one of my high-priority resolution was to spend more time reading the Bible. I thought that I could probably combine it with my attempt on doing “something-a-day” project.

So today, I present to you: Light of Days.

It’s a project that tackles my discipline, spiritual maturity, and creativity, all at the same time. I’m interested to see how it all coming to be at the end of 2010! I hope you are following my journey :)

2010 means a lot for me. It’s a year of second chance, a year for me to get up, a year of lots of hard work, and a year to shine brighter. Here’s to a greater year ahead! Happy New Year, all!
