New Year; New Look

On October 10, 2010, cubes and I were officially married. It felt perfect, but like any wedding wasn't. It wasn't a budget wedding, but it was a modest wedding. At the end of our recaps I'll tally up how much we spent.  Along with our friends, we planned the decor, the flowers, and made all of the paper goods ourselves.

If you're just joining us and want to start at the beginning of our story, please do. At the bottom of each post, you'll find a link "Newer Post" that will take you to the next post.

What will you discover as you read? You'll see how we planned two weddings - not just one - in eight months, helped build Syzygryd, and ran a Burning Man art support camp. It was definitely a roller coaster ride and not for the faint of heart.

I thought I'd be tired of all things wedding after our big day, but I find I'm not. Occasionally cubes will join us here and give the always needed and appreciated boys' perspective, but mostly it'll be me writing. The focus will be on crafting a vintage wedding.

On this blog you'll find inspiration with What Inspires Me posts. Fashion and decor ideas, from shoes to purses to vintage ephemera with Tuesday Shoesday, Thursday Purseday, and Etsy Tuesdays posts. You'll also see tips and ideas about making green[er] choices.

Design of this blog started with Blogger's Watermark template. I created all of the images using Adobe Photoshop C3. The majority of the writing is done by me - Eden Hensley Silverstein - and sometimes when the mood strikes him, my husband - Daniel "cubes" Silverstein. We occasionally invite guests to join us; their posts are clearly marked. 

In a nod to our recent wedding, the title of the blog and category bars are typeset in Park Avenue. The tagline is typeset in Bodidota Regular. These were two of the fonts used in our wedding stationery.

Currently we're hosting this blog on Blogger.com.
