boots and weddings - a great combo

this from Jessamyn Harris via a practical wedding. boots with dresses on the bridesmaids are super cute.

ideas

so i've used a bit of scrap tissue paper that came in my French General package the other day to try my hand a paper flowers. i didn't do too bad. i took this pic for a friend of mine who wanted to see the boots i was talking about wearing for the wedding if i couldn't afford (which i can't!) the day of the dead boots. a really good friend of mine bought these for me years ago at a thrift shop hoping the would fit me and they did. i wear them all the time and they look cute with shortish skirts. i stuck the flower in there to show her what she would be helping me do closer to the date. fold and poof, fold and poof, fold and poof.

wedding inspiration

oh how i love these. they break my heart. i've thought about these beauties ever since i saw them last year when planning a trip to New Mexico. i went to NM for a conference but the only thing i wanted to do was go to this boot shop, Back at the Ranch. they have the most unbelievable designs. they make you want to cry. not inexpensive but certainly a source of inspiration. when we decided that we would finally get married and i began thinking about what things inspire me, these were the first things that popped into my mind. i like boots! when i tried to explain that i needed a pair of wedding boots to my beloved, i was met with a blank stare and "wedding boots? would you like to tell me what wedding boots are?" some people will just never understand.
