New Old Things

First things first. Apricot glazed pork tenderloin cooking in the oven and The Doors playing on the stereo. A very nice beginning to the weekend if you ask me. And yes, my weekends do begin on Sunday.

SO. Back to the business at hand. I am attempting the insane operation of hand making 80 - 100 invitations and Save The Dates for my wedding. I love making cards and layering paper and fabric, and I just couldn't fathom the idea of paying someone to do that for me. Since I'm not into letter pressing, and it just wouldn't be the same to print out all of my invites off of the computer, I'm going to hand make each and every one. And I've recently acquired this beautiful vintage Royal typewriter; which is going to make the magic happen.

I don't believe in naming my appliances or inanimate objects, but I do refer to such things as "he". That being said, isn't he a beauty?! Of course now I'm going to have to actually get started on the endeavor so as to show examples. But that's what the weekend is for!

And with that I leave you to it.
