roughly 20 yards to cover my form. If you’re using a 1" ribbon, 10
-12 yards would probably be plenty.)
your wreath form using your flat-head pins. Wrap your wreath form with
the ribbon slowly and carefully, overlapping slightly, until your form
is completely covered. The smaller the overlapping is, the less
ribbon you will use. Trim your ribbon tail, and secure on the
backside with a pin. (see figure 1)

paper should be shaped like a flower. (see figure 3)

I’m slowly waking up this morning, but this beautiful tabletop by Cynthia Warren is definitely perking up my spirits…
Ashley over at Decor Amor was kind enough to put together a few beautiful inspiration boards for Once Wed. She creates such gorgeous collages, so when she agreed to create a few for the site I was thrilled. The board above appropriately titled "Foggy Mornings" is absolutely lovely. I adore the bits of old antique lace, dark browns, and antique whites. As much as I love a colorful wedding, this board is a wonderful reminder of how darker colors are just as beautiful especially mixed with a warmer color like peach. It reminds me of this incredible sunrise wedding shot by Tec Petaja below….
