The simplest of things and beautiful details can make your special day perfect. Finding all of those wedding must haves is a big task. Etsy makes it easy with so many stylish shops in one place. This post narrows it down to five fabulous shops. Scroll down to create your happy ever after.

Aristocrafts

Couture Vintage-Inspired Wedding Hankies and Bridal Accessories

From a little something blue to gorgeous golden lace hankies, or great gloves and chic cuffs, I know that you will find something special here.

Enrich By Millie

Bridal Sash, Garters, Ring Pillows, Wedding Hair Accessories, and Jewelry

Oh the beauty of everything in this Etsy shop! It is all handmade and fabulous. You will not find a better selection of gorgeous garters.

Fringe and Rose

Handmade Paper and Silk Ribbon

When details matter. I learned as a young bride, that most florists, especially in small communities, have limited selections of ribbons. I supplied my own. This Etsy shop makes it easy to find the perfect hue for your color palette. Shop by fabric or color. And their handmade deckle edge cotton rag paper will make you happy. Design your own invitations for an intimate affair, write a thank you, make a place card. It's all so lovely!

Nancy and Elizabeth

"Nancy and Elizabeth offers custom handmade and bespoke special occasion ware." You'll find bags, jewelry, and hair accessories. But stay for the handmade shoes. They are simply beautiful and affordable!

Mod Party

This is a one stop shop for all things bridal. You'll find the cutest "getting ready" robes and PJS for the wedding party, wonderful ways to ask your tribe to be your bridesmaids, personalized gifts for the bride and so much more. Bookmark this shop!

Wedding Wednesday: Gifts For Your Bridal Party

Halloween At Home: Etsy Style

Halloween will be different this year. Many families are playing it safe and celebrating at home. But that doesn't mean that it can't be a boo-tiful event. Invite a few of the kids besties, plan a theme, dress them up, decorate the door. Make it a mini party, but special. This edit begins with hello and a great door mat, and ends with sweet dreams for all in matching jammies. No tricks. Just treats!

Etsy Editors Picks

When I shop Etsy, the first place I go to are the Editor's Picks. I always find something good no matter what the department. The Halloween Edit is filled with the best in freaky and

 fabulous finds.

Create A Warm Welcome

This year has been spooky enough. Why not make everyone feel welcome instead of afraid? The Pumpkin Door Mat is the cutest, and the wreath is one of the prettiest. Wild Ridge Designs allows you to choose your size and ribbon color.  Those giant Spider Webs are fun and made of wool. You get two in your set. Use them inside or out. 

Set A Safari Theme

Grown ups and little kids alike will love this awesome animal theme. Dress the baby in a leopard print romper from Tesa Babe.  Hang animal print paper lanterns in the foyer or over the table. Find these at Party Connoisseur .  I would use the leopard paper plates any day of the week. And the darling mini Party Pails will be fab for holding individual treats. 

Party Favors

Invite a few of the kids "besties" over, ask them to wear a mask, and give them each one of these adorable favors.

Goodie Goodie Surprise

Staying Home?

This is all the costume you need.

Dress Up The kids

Let's raise our children to be super heroes. Teach them that they have the powers within to change the world. These personalized capes and accessories will make them look the part. Not to mention, they will be super comfy, too.

Top Left. and Bottom Right from Love Lane Designs. Wonder Woman Tutu is from Posh Little Kids and the personalized blue Cape is from 

Super Kid Capes

Super Hero Party Inspiration

Can we have too much super hero inspo? I think not. These perfect picks will get your mini party going.  The Super Hero Party Bags are beautifully made. Create Cupcakes for a sweet treat, and add these colorful toppers from B Squared Design. Decorate the table with S for Super Hero Confetti. The most important party favor of all will be the super hero face mask. Etsy has a big selection. Be safe, especially on Halloween.

Personalized Pumpkin PJS
Talk about sweet dreams after all of that candy! These precious pumpkin jammies are just the thing to wear at home on Halloween.  The owner of the shop states that the pajamas are made with cotton, embroidery, and love. So sweet. Best yet, they come in sizes newborn - adult 3XL.

Wedding Wednesday: Getting Ready With Style

{ Via: Pinterest }

Being married many moons ago, this "getting ready glam squad" thing did not exist. It was me alone in the bathroom doing the best makeup tricks I knew from teenage modeling days.  Even though there was a house full of relatives, I felt a bit alone. So I phoned a friend, Patti, and asked her to please join me. She and the "adult beverage" that accompanied her, made all of the difference in the world. Today's bridal parties know how to have fun.  This post features fab finds for you and your gal pals on the big day!

HERE: 12 Ways To Add The Fun To Getting Dressed

of pretty to the day.
