I Heart Offbeat Bride!

Hello, readers! Today I'm leaving the blogging to someone else!  With hundreds of thousands of blogs out there, it's hard to find those that stand out from the crowd and actually have something interesting to say.  Offbeat Bride does just that!

To give you some background, Offbeat Bride was launched as a way to promote the release of Seattle author Ariel Meadow Stallings book, Offbeat Bride: Creative Alternatives for Independent Brides.

As you can read on the website,
"What initially began as a book promotional project slowly grew into a completely different beast -- a blog updated daily with tons of "wedding porn" (photos from real people's really offbeat weddings), advice, and inspiration for couples who are working their asses off to create authentic weddings full of intention and personality.  It's now our pleasure to serve up inspiration for over 480,000 readers every month."

Pretty cool stuff, am I right?

The blog post I'd like to direct you to is a DIY piece.  Yay! A way to be crafty and save money at the same time! :)  The title of the post is; Puff, puff, paint: How to freehand etch glassware with fabric paint - pretty self-explanatory!

Etched glassware is like the coolest thing since sliced bread! Everyone loves to have things personalized - it shows an extra bit of love went into it!  Whether you use the tutorial as a way to make your wedding guests feel special, or keep it in your back pocket to use come gift-giving time -- it's sure to be a big hit!

Happy Planning,
Anti-Bridezilla
