Fanciful Finds

I'm always searching for better ways to organize my stuff. It's kind of a never ending search, even though there are lots of great tools out there. What I really need is someone to just do it for me.  I like the creative side of creating but not so much of the clean up and organize it side.  You can probably relate!So I picked up the latest Cloth Paper Scissors magazine in hopes of finding some ideas and started scouring it last night. Yeah!! Found some great organization ideas for all my glitters and ribbons and stuff!

But I love when I find something unexpected!!   How about some fanciful little sparrow clips? Check'em out:

What would you do with them at your wedding you ask?? Think about your favor bags, OOT Bags, clipped to napkins, in wishing trees! I can think of plenty of ways you can incorporate these cuties into your wedding day! These would be really fun for a spring wedding, aviary inspired wedding, or anyone who just wants something whimsical and different.


Being a practical person, I like that they have a usefulness for after the wedding but not being chotched up with a monogram or wedding date, your guests may actually enjoy using them.

 -side note alert -
Seriously... the practice putting the names or monograms or dates on things guests take home should take a hiatus until about 2060. Then everything old can be new again and this Charlotte wedding planner just may be too old to remember that I thought it was "chotchy" the first time.    And since I'm on a tangent, my mom said "chotchy" all the time. In her definition it's something that gets wrecked, specifically by adding too many details that basically ruins your artwork... however, I just looked it up at www.urbandictionary.com to see if it was a 'real word' and wow, probably not telling my mom after 30years of using this word how derogatory it really is based on some of the street slang offerings. She'd probably be aghast! Or maybe she knows. wow, then I'd be aghast! lol!

Alrighty, let's get back on track! These clips really economical too! They come in packs of 16, for under $20 depending on where you buy them. Each photo caption is linked back to the source sites if you care to shop. They are also at Amazon, but best deal I found so far is $10.99 at Stacks and Stacks!

Happy Planning!
