It's easy to be green and pretty :)

In honor of Earth Day (April 22), I thought I'd share some eco-friendly steals! I'm totally digging these gifts from recycled, reused and natural materials!  Rissa from Balance had asked me to do some modeling and I was thrilled that I didn't have to do my hair and make-up! Yay! I had a blast and how adorable are these items? Check out eco-artware.com for more info and gift ideas!

Obviously that's not me :) Nathaniel showed off his super duper cufflinks. What an awesome idea for grooms and their guys! 

PS- My birthday is coming around the corner! I'd take this and this and this for my gifts :) 

Jen ~ March 27th

Amy headed downtown Annapolis to help Jen and her family get ready for the big day! Amy did the make-up for this beautiful bride! We couldn't have asked for better March weather! It was a perfect day for an Annapolis wedding!

Thank you to Michelle Deck Photography for the pretty pictures!
