DIY Ring Bearer Pillow Tutorials

By now, everyone should know how I feel about overpriced stuff that can be easily made on your own.

Making your own ring bearer pillows will be so much more personalized than buying a mass-produced one. It will be a lot cheaper too! You want your wedding to be original, right?

Lucky for me, I have two ring bearers, so I get to make two! Yay!

Here are some great tutorials that I’ve come across in my search for making my own. When I get around to making my own, I will be sure to post my tutorial and plenty of photos! :) For now, just click on the photos below to go to a tutorial that interests you.

DIY Scarf Tutorials

I hate the winter. I really do – it’s cold, I act even more like a shut-in than I already do, and it takes me a good 15 minutes to prepare myself to venture out into the cold. Luckily, scarves help. I can wrap them around half of my face, so they’re pretty awesome. Not to mention, most scarves are somewhat of a fashion statement, so that’s a bonus!

Yeah – I love scarves. They pretty much rule. Here are some tutorials for making your perfect scarf!
