YAY!!! Utterly Engaged’s new issue is out and awesome again! Even more awesome, because they featured a project I did where I got old out-dated bridesmaid dresses and fixed them up to be a little trendier! Check it out: here~

These dresses were pretty ugly… but just some quick sewing and some embellishments, it definitely did wonders. 

Check out more pictures at Utterly Engaged Issue no. 22 ~

Handmade also got a quick shout out from David Tutera! Love his show and work~

We had a bridal shower for my dear friend Diana and conveniently, us girls from FinerThingsCo were her bridesmaids so we got together with the other bridesmaids and showered Diana with class! I present you a bridal shower with a french winery theme… that means lots of fine wine~ 

Don’t you love those linen napkins! They’re 100% handmade by moi and it’s super easy and cheap. Just sew squares and attach floral fabric bows~ Lots of little details went into this shower and details are what makes it so fine!

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!!
a lot of holidays are unnecessary these days but i think mother’s day is so important. i know everyday should be a day to show our moms that we appreciate them but dedicating this one day helps us to really realize how much our mom means to us~ 
for my mom, she’s been through so much being a single mom and going through a horror of events with my so called dad, and there’s been sooo many times i blamed her for the pain i felt. but she ALWAYS loves me and holds my hand. and thats why moms are so awesome!!! we shop, cry, fight, yell, hug, and fight some more with mom! they are always there~ Thank you mom~
a special shout out to all the single moms- you are amazing and you are awesome. these flowers go to you~
love you mom ♥ sarakim

One of the brides I’ve been working with just took her engagement photos and I had to share it with everyone because it’s so darn cute!!! It was a shoot inspired by “THE LITTLE RASCALS”. I grew up with that movie!!! She wore a handmadebysarakim hairpiece and had some of our flowers too~

Photos taken by WildFlowersPhotos ~~ can’t get over how cute these pictures are~

“We are he-man woman haters, We feed girls to alligators, Our clubhouse burned down mighty low, But we’ve got a plan to make some dough!” 

“Dear Darla, I hate your stinking guts. You make me vomit. You’re scum between my toes! Love, Alfalfa.”

“You’re not thinkin’ about Darla, are ya? - No, of course not. - Good. - I wonder if she’s not thinking of me, too?
