Tweezers at the ready
Thursday night Hayley and her tweezers (Thank you!) came round to help me stick my teeny tiny flat backed pearls on to our invites.

I had previously attempted to do this on my own, worried that I was asking too much of my bridesmaids. I soon gave up and shouted for help when I found it took me 20 minutes to finish 3 invitations…!

It was an incredibly fiddly job, but with 3 of us all working hard it hardly took any time at all.

I am totally in love with the finished result!

I need to figure out now what I want to do with the outside. Then, the invites should all be ready to start sending out in just over a months time!

Good plan to get some help! I roped my parents in to help!
I ended up doing a ribbon bellyband round mine to hold it closed.
