...I'm keeping in mind for my cousin's wedding shower.

I've realized that while I've been away from blogging (finished up graduate school, trying to find a job, very busy), I do need a place to keep ideas online. Even if I bookmark something, chances are, it disappears into the ether. Even sites like de.lic.i.ous (is that right?) and Diigo can't keep me organized. So here are four things I'd like to remember while I help my mom plan for my cousin's wedding shower.

1. Fringed streamers via Oh Happy Day.

2. Carrot cake whoopie pies, from Abbey Goes Design Scouting. Holy yum. I may be alone on the awesome-ness of carrot cake, so the "decorating committee" (me) will have to check with the "food committee" (my mom).

3. Tissue paper pompoms. Thank you, Martha!

4. I love this arrangement, showcased on Once Wed. Lovely colors, and the ribbon on the jar? Very sweet (and something my mom can use her stockpile of saved ribbon bits on? Just a thought...)
