The Aftermath

I was being put in charge of decorations for our wedding, so naturally, it is something very personal to me. I have not gotten the wedding pictures yet, so those will have to come later. Needless to say, I was more than happy at the way it turned out.

The question remains as to what we are going to do with the decorations that have not been conveniently taken home by our guests. It's tough because we do not have a place of our own yet, so we had to make do.

Remember these program holders?

They are now decoration on his office door........

What about these cans collected over one whole year?

They are either boxed up......

.......or used as these...............

........or these (seen here with the leftover paper butterflies which fell off from the rattan sticks - and that's me)....

What about the cleverly folded lillies?

We couldn't bear to throw them away or give them away, so we hoarded them and they became these....

And of course, my favourite item..... standing at the corner of our room. We put so much work into these....

It hurts to give any of it away, but we already did give some of them away, and the rest of it shall remain standing in the corner of our room, reminding me of how much time we spent together doing these with friends we love and who love us so much more, that they were willing to spend their Saturday doing these with us, although not all of them have dainty hands.
