Ooooo...shiney!

Yesterday, I spent the whole afternoon with my grandmother. It was awesome! We are so much alike, and I absolutely love it. :)

We were on a mission...to find the material for my wedding day necklace.

She's going to make it for me!

{I feel so blessed.}

We found some ivory pearls,

and we found some gray pearls

My grandmother is going to make a multi-strand pearl necklace by alternating the stands.

One ivory, one gray, one ivory, one gray, one ivory, and one more gray.

I'm really stoked!

Then, we're going to add an embellishment to the necklace...like a brooch/pin.

My grandma has one that she wore in high school that she let me have.

I played around with it a little today, and here's what I came up with.

Your thoughts?

Grandma also gave me a hair comb that I'm going to try to incorporate into my fascinator and a bracelet that matches both the hair comb and the brooch she gave me.

She also gave me some fabulous clip on earrings that I'm thinking about using as shoe clips...maybe. I'm still undecided on that front.

Yesterday, we also got our wedding bands in the mail!!!!!!

I was so stoked to see that package on the dining room table when I got home.

I tore through it like nobody's business.

Please excuse my horrendous phone pictures.

p.s. Don't forget to vote for where Mr. GrapeJuice and I should go on our honeymoon! {You might win a Starbucks gift card!}
