What Should Guests Throw At Me?

What Should Guests Throw At Me?

The wedding coordinator for our site recently asked us if we were going to have any type of "send away" at the end of the night and if we were what we'd be doing for it. Well if you remember, Fiance and I are having our reception at a historic Inn and we'll be staying at the Inn that night so we won't actually be doing the going away thing. They said they could stage a ...

How To Become A Movie Extra

How To Become A Movie Extra

By Joanne Redder

You are a star - at least potentially, and you want to let the world know it via the big screen. Of course, you have no formal acting training nor do you have an agent, but you just know that the camera lens is going to love you and that this is your destiny.

That’s great, congratulations! Unfortunately, chances are that you’re going to have to start small and get a feel for how movies work from ...

Got wood? What happens when trees meet a car

Got wood? What happens when trees meet a car

Yup I know April Fools day was yesterday, but this does appear to actually be a real car, so the jokes on you. Created by a guy who can only be described as certifiable , crazy , very, very bored, this is an Opel car which has been stripped of all the metal on the chassis and b

The Jewels

Because my dress is lace from top to bottom, I'd like to wear a simpler necklace and intricate earrings. My jewelry will be gold, but I'm having trouble deciding which direction I'd like to go: pearls, crystals, or amethyst to go along with my purple wedding colors.

Here are some beauties I've seen that made the decision much harder.

Carrie D. Mader - This one can be ordered in gold.

To Gocco or Not to Gocco..

To Gocco or Not to Gocco..

Gocco--Something that months ago meant nothing, is now a part of my everyday vocabulary, especially right now while I am plagued with the question "to gocco or not to gocco". As I have previously posted ( and I'm sure I will post more of) FI and I are planning on making our own invitations/menus/place cards...etc. Even though I have been "anti" gocco before, I felt with the new set of projects, perhaps it was time to revisit the "gocco". ...

Calling all designers a Pixel Couch for you

Calling all designers a Pixel Couch for you

Have a habit of changing your living room's colour scheme? Self-confessed design geek? Obsessed with sofas that look like Post-it notes have been stuck all over them? If you answered 'yes' to any of these, you might want one of these Pixel Couches.

Have some sushi Mario style with the Super Mario Bento boxes

Mmm, sushi. I love it all, from the fiddly little rolls to the delicious tempura, and my favourite, pumpkin korroke. However i;be never though of combining my love for the food with my passion for computer games.. till now. I won't say that I've been inspired by this selection of faintly obscene food colle

Casio EXILIM EX-S10 the camera that’s a “catwalk accessory”

Casio's newest press release header doesn't even refer to the EXILIM Card EX-S10 as a camera but as a 'catwalk accessory', so from the start it's clear that these new digital compact cams are all about style. What about substance?

Rechargeable LED cigarette lighter torch the eco-friendly safety gadget

Rechargeable LED cigarette lighter torch the eco-friendly safety gadget

I seem to be knee deep in rechargeable LED gadgets today, but it's all for the greater environmental good, so bring it on. After the dinky but not really necessary candles comes this far more indispensable gadget. Anyone who's ever owned or borrowed a car knows that an emergency torch is a very, very useful thing. This one doesn't waste energy or require hand cranking either, with the ability to charge quickly in the car's cigarette lighter.
