Wedding Part I of MANY!

I just realized this week that I never blogged about our wedding! Ahhh, I can't believe it. So here goes-- part one of probably way too many posts about all things Johnston Wedding.........

I love Christmas Cards!

I am so obsessed with Christmas Cards! I've sent them every year since I think I was in middle school-- I always look forward to picking them out, writing the letters and designing adorable return address labels (this is a newer obsession!). And I really, really love receiving cards!......

Made with love.

One night I was browsing pinterest (which has become a nightly obsession) and I found all these metal stamped wooden utensils. I might have immediately pulled up by my amazon app and ordered this set......

Christmas at the J's.... Mantel edition.

I absolutely love my house this year! I wanted to use all real greenery, because I LOVE the smell and we've got a fake tree.. soooo I've got to make it smell nice somehow! I've got one boxwood wreath left from the wedding :( I wanted to tie it on a mirror, like I've seen so many times on pinterest. I had to flip my mirror so it would be tall enough and it worked!.......

China + Crystal

Last week I went to El Dorado for work and while I was there I stopped by and picked up what has come in of our crystal. The whole way home I was thinking about how perfect it's going to look with our china! The china was a gift from Brian's grandparents-- their set of beautiful Noritake china. It's so gorgeous.

Soooo... what did I do when I got home? Set the table! Friday afternoon, for no good reason. Is it bad that it's Monday and I still haven't had the heart to pack it all back up? 

I think our beautiful new white linen "J" napkins fit perfectly! Time to plan a dinner party :) 

Happy Fall, Y'all!

Even though I woke up to snow (!!!!) on the ground this morning, I'm still celebrating fall! That's right, temperatures aren't supposed to jump from 70 to SNOW! 

I painted this little canvas last night after work. I saw the design on pinterest and just tried it out myself, don't worry- I won't reproduce it and sell it on etsy! ;) Just a little something for my personal collection. 

Happy FALL!! 

XOXO, 

Alex
