PEZ for the kids and turquoise for the bride




Heidi emailed me this morning as I lay in bed feeling sorry for myself:*

Hi Again! Wanted to say thanks again for the awesome ideas for the kids at the wedding. Things went swimmingly. We did however run out of time... (and... um... money) and ended up getting the kids pez dispensers instead. (FYI... KIDS LOVE pez dispensers & when then lose and or get tired of them.. you know you only spent a couple of bucks anyways). Just thought i'd pass a couple pics along. FYI, i know you've been featuring some rings lately, so i thought i'd send a ring shot... i am a non-diamond fan.. but i have this retardedly huge love for turquoise. My mr. found this most lovely turquoise and diamond ring at erie basin and that was my engagement ring. He did such a fab job. My band was my grandmothers... My new MIL made my dress and the flower girls dresses... and they were TO DIE FOR...

It was a blast. We were lucky. We had the most GORGEOUS weather... and now it's over & i have the kindest and most sarcastic man i could have hoped for.... yeah for crazy artist husbands!

*****

Mkay. PEZ???!!

Heidi, I'm not gonna lie. I was pissed at you for about five seconds. I honestly think it would be better to buy nothing for the kids than plastic crap. (I feel the same way about favors, obv.)

But then the photos loaded and your adorable face beamed up at me. How could I be pissed at you? Plus your vintage ring is gorg. I love the way you brought the turquoise into your wedding colors. And hellooo, nice shoes on the mister!

* The wind is riling up allergies I didn't know I had. I don't wanna go into it.

    Thanks for posting... I know.. PEZ right... We wanted to give them something though.. and honestly i think those skirts that the girls twirled the night away in were more than enough =) Plus the little boys got rad feather ties from toybreaker... that they've since worn again (not that little boys like clothes, but at least they looked cool).

    I like the Pez idea. Because, better to give kids something than have them bored and then nightmarish.

    I like the turquoise, too.

    Oh my god. Those rings!

    And, as a candy and plastic deprived hippie child, Pez would have rocked my world.

    rings are RAD.


    and as far a plastic crap toys, Pez gets a pass for classic nostalgia in my book.

    I love her rings! But I may be biased. My ring has turquoise as well. It's such a great alternative to diamonds.

    Can you tell me about the turquoise ring...is it vintage? Victorian jewelry? I have a 1870s vintage persian turquoise ring that is slightly similar...just curious. Faye
