the bee's knees

Todays inspiration is brought to you by the honey bee:

The pedigree of honey Does not concern the bee, Nor lineage of ecstasy Delay the butterfly On spangled journeys to the peak Of some perceiveless thing — The right of way to Tripoli A more essential thing. -Emily Dickinson

table decor

I spotted these pretty birds nests in Mosey's shop on etsy the other day. These would be really pretty on a dessert or cake table. You could also put them near your guest book!

Do me a favor

{martha stewart}

I really like the idea of food favors. It seems like a really good idea for a few reasons:

1.) Not wasteful. I think little wedding favors are usually cute in the moment, but later people might just throw them away because really, what do you do with them? Especially monogrammed items.

2.) Leftovers. I don't like the idea of being stuck with 25-50 favors. If its food, usually people would want to take more than one. Or just eat them yourself :)

3.) Inexpensive. How expensive could two cookies per guest, really be? Depending on who/where you have them made, it could be a lot cheaper than say the $2.50 + per guest most favors are.

4.) Expressive. The cookie, mini cake, pie, candy etc. could be a favorite of yours and the groom.

I also like the idea of plant favors, but I'll get to that on another post :)
