I would like to introduce you to our birdie cake toppers of cuteness! Now, perhaps I am more proud of these than I should be… after all they are not perfect. I can see my fingerprints in parts and they are not perfectly symmetrical, but they are to represent us and we are flawed. Besides that, I am not a sculptor, and I have never considered myself crafty.

The cake toppers have been my wedding DIY albatross. It actually never occurred to me to craft anything for the wedding. I buy things. That is how I roll. But my fiance expressed that he had faith in my never-used crafting abilities, so I give it a go and, as usual, he was right — I CAN do this stuff. I can craft all the things! I would never be able to get things done if I insisted on perfection so my DIY goal is always to get to "good 'nuff."

Shine Wedding Invitations is designer Autumn Wyda's baby. The store is a mix of her own personal style — sometimes ultra modern, sometimes classy and conservative, sometimes a little vintage-y and retro, but always clean and neat and not overly busy, is how she explains it. I just say WOW! These are rad and super hip. And also, me likey.
