Something to do
For the past week, I needed to be busy. I'm getting bored of my current crafts... the paper cranes don't interest me anymore, think I've folded about 700 already, which is 70%, no worries, I am determined to finish the 1001 cranes and there are still, hmmm... (counting) more than 8 to finish the 300 cranes. Oh, somehow I wish H2B will fold at least a hundred :( I've tried my save-the-date project but my prototype didn't encourage me to proceed. I have tried doing the layout for the invites but after about 3 unsatisfying layouts.. I'm done. I'll put off doing that.
I'm now thinking about the dresses... my gown, bridesmaid dresses and mothers' gowns. When I browse the net, I see lots of nice colors and styles but I haven't fixed my eyes on anything for my bridesmaids. I do what I want for my gown but somehow I am not sure the cut will be flaterring for my body type. I actually think I'm getting something basic off-the-rack and have slight alterations so that it will match what I have in mind. H2B and I have agreed that he'll be wearing a suit for the big day but for the groomsmen, ninongs and fathers, we're stil in-between suit and barong.
So many things to do and think about and I'm not accomplishing anything. H2B is keeps remimding me to update my resume which I have put-off doing for the past 4 years.
I think I'm kinda crazy because when I read posts from the egroup weddings@work, I envy other members's accomplishments... while I feel like I'm stuck with my DIY items until I can hand pick the suppliers when I go home in June.
A few of the things i plan to do:
Save-the-date
Invitations
Boutoneries
Flowergirl wands
Paper Cranes for decorations during the ceremony(I'd use some for escort cards too)
