We've become a little bit obsessed with all things crochet, white and doily-like in the past week (in fact, I may have impulse bought this crochet dress from Zara the same day I write this article on crochet for bridesmaids... darn it!) Anyway, doily details aren't new to the wedding world, but, by gum, are they gaining in popularity. The best thing about this theme (besides the fact that it's super pretty, obviously) is that it allows for so many mini DIY projects. While the doily-inspired dress in the above photos was actually handmade by the bride herself (agh! I've done nothing with my life!) we don't expect you to get lost in a sea of popcorn and afghans... There are plenty of easy peasy DIY doily projects to get your crafting juices going, such as this doily envelopes project from Bride & Joy and this gorgeous project for doily confetti cones from Heartmadeblog.com.

White Christmas

Wednesday 23 December 2021 - Decor Inspiration - Tags: white, christmas, winter

I will never forget sitting in the Seattle airport last December, vowing that I never wanted to see snow again. Trying to make our way from Dublin to my Washington home was pure travel hell as the whole of northern America was under several feet of snow. We were layed over in NY, San Francisco and Seattle, where finally my dad was forced to drive over the treacherous mountain passes for 5 hours to collect us, because all flights were cancelled until after Christmas. Even though I have spent the whole of 2009 hating the white stuff, as Christmas rolls around...dare I say it...I kind of miss my white Christmas.
