eye *candy* love

My sister is getting married in June, and it's fun to talk about the theme she wants, and details that come with it. She's decided on a "vintage carnival" theme, and so she thought Lollipop centerpieces would be fitting! How fun! The above image comes from The "Un-Bride" blog.

We were browsing The Candy Warehouse to get prices, and it made me crave a lollipop! Look at these pretty ones.




So we're thinking of having a similar centerpiece to the first photo, but having them sit in retro looking popcorn tubs. :) I think they're going to look awesome!

Speaking of lollipop loveliness.... I love this photo print by Danielle Thompson.


It's the weekend!!
oh... and, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACKIE! xo
