It's like CHRISTMAS!!

So I've been having major anxiety still feeling like I have so much to do. Between working full time, running an extremely busy Etsy shop all by myself, and getting married in 78 days, my mind is shot.

I took my notepad and wrote down EVERYTHING I already bought for the wedding including bridal party gifts. It was like Christmas!! I found SOOO many things I must have bought almost a year ago! I felt much better after doing this.. I filled up almost 2 pages of things I've already purchased.

Ladies -- If you're freaking out, just list everything you already took care it, sometimes it's less straining than listing what you still have to do (but of course, DO THAT TOO!)

I started going to the dollar store weekly to pick up things like plates/napkins/cups for the day of at the bridal suite and I've been picking up stuff at Michael's every time I go using a 40 or 50% off coupon like my flower girl baskets

Just had to share my christmas night LOL

Wow! You have been busy! I have one closet that is designated to all of the gifts/ decor for the wedding, and it is amazing LOL

I love your idea about shopping at the dollar store for items for the bridal suite! October is going to be here before we know it!

I have a 1 bedroom.. so between my etsy shop and my wedding there is literally not a drop of space left :( I can't wait until after the wedding and we look for houses.. at least I can have my own 'studio' and a big place to put my shower stuff haha!

They don't provide cups and plates in the bridal suite?

Thats a really smart idea - focusing on all you actually have finished is a great way to realize you really HAVE done a lot of work!
