I bought a plain jane guestbook awhile ago, but I wasn't really happy with it. I've decided instead to use postcards. Charlie and I met when we were assigned a project over the Catcher in the Rye our sophomore year in high school. I found these vintage book postcards at Anthropologie and thought they would work perfectly.
Next to the "guestbook" we're going to frame the Catcher in the Rye postcard and tell the story of how we met, along with instructions to fill out the card and place in a basket. Then, we'll have someone mail the cards to us while we're on our honeymoon, and we come home to hundreds of pretty postcards! They'll also make a fun keepsake for us. Woo Hoo!

While I was in anthro I camethisclose to purchasing these loves... then I realized that Charlie would kill me. I NEED THESE!!



owls

I love all of the sweet owl decor out there right now. I'm debating about getting one of these adorable cookie jars from Anthropologie. If you religiously watch Modern Family like me, you may recognize the second one. Every time I see it in the Dunphy's kitchen I remind Charlie of just how fantastic it would look in ours. I haven't purchased either one yet, because I can't get myself to pay the $68 - $98 for a cookie jar when there are never cookies at my house!
 Some very cute owl knobs, also from Anthro. I think they would look pretty great on my desk in the guest bedroom.
These are my own salt & pepper shakers that Charlie got for me. They're super affordable from Pier1.  
 A little flower pot that I found at Hobby Lobby for less than $3. I saw a tiny ranuncula plant at Whole Foods yesterday that I think I'm going to plant in this baby.
