Courtney's "Something Blue" Bridal Shower


Ok, so I haven't posted anything in months. Mostly because I haven't painted anything in months. Mostly because school is hard.... REALLY REALLY hard. But also because I am lucky enough to be Maid of Honor for my very best friend since we were 9-year-old-N'Sync-obsessed-twerps with Lisa Frank binders and Limited Too sweatsuits. She's marrying her high school sweetheart and their wedding is going to be absolutely positively GORGEOUS. 

A few weekends ago, I threw her a Bridal Shower at the Bay Area Museum in Clear Lake, Texas. Please note, when I say "I threw" I mean that I was a slave driver to my sweet mom and sister for a couple weeks. I couldn't have done it without all of their help and patience! Here are some pictures that our high school friend Sarah Miller Photography captured. Take a look...

All my  LoveLeigh vendors and Sources: 
"Something Blue" Printables (invitations, bunting and water bottles): Prettiest Print Shop
Framed Signage: MarryGrams
Blue Velvet Chair: Bee Lavish Rentals
Mad Lib/Advice Printables: Paper Street Press
Macarons: La Patisserie
Bundt Cake: Nothing Bundt Cakes











Behind this ruffled curtain (which I stole off of my shower..) there is a very strange, wax figure of a man in an Oriental kimono. Needless to say, we needed a backdrop... 

















This pretty little pink beauty has a matching chest of drawers & hutch combo, headboard, desk and nightstand that will be the perfect set for a little girls' room with just a little more TLC and a fresh coat of paint. Hoping to get that all painted and ready to go this month!


Nothing Bundt never disappoints. I could've easily eaten the whole thing. 



To cover up the museum's display on the stage, I used 3M hooks and dowel rods for temporary curtain hardware and regular king flat sheets as affordable draping.











She's gorgeous even with that goofy look on her face..


God bless everyone, and happy Fall!
