Well what a week it has been over here at Pocketful of Dreams – the sun has been shining which has certainly raised our spirits and we have been a right pair of busy bees! Through all the long hours, millions of emails going back and forth and frantic Skype calls though, there has been a lot of laughter and a general buzz of excitement at just how many AMAZING projects we’re working on at the minute! We are fortunate enough to be collaborating with some truly inspiring creative types right now – all at the top of their game!
By far the biggest of these projects is Dream. Find. Do. – a blogging workshop being run in collaboration with the hugely inspiring Rebecca from Florence Finds. You can’t help to have seen the hype about what promises to be a fantastic opportunity look out for the special announcement a little later today.
We’ve also been busy keeping you inspired with some fantastic posts on the blog this week. Missed any? Well here’s a recap:
WEEKLY WRAP UP
We kicked off the week with a healthy dose of inspiration in the form of our Dash of Purple mood board. Perfect for those of you looking for understated elegance with a little hint of colour.
It’s the opening ceremony of the Olympics tonight…we’re not huge sports fans we have to admit but all this GB fever seemed like the perfect excuse for a cake!
Megan and Neil were together 13 years before they tied the knot…but it sure was worth the wait!
We love flowers…but we admit to not knowing that much about them. Which is why we love Floritecture: this time it’s floral superstar Gayle from Bloomingales who talks us through a beautiful ice-cream shade bouquet and buttonhole. Drool…
The Über talented Helen Sharland from Cutture shared some insights into laser cutting with some great advice for any brides-to-be just thinking about their stationery.
Perfect for all this gorgeous weather we’ve had this week, we featured the Love Shoot of Kathryn and Lance. Not only are they drop dead gorgeous but they have one of the best proposal stories we’ve come across!
And we further indulged our love of backdrops: this week of the fabric kind, with tips and pointers for buying and DIY’ing.
BLOG HOP
But of course, throughout the week, we’ve managed to sneak in some time to hop through our favourite blogs. Here’s what we’ve been loving this week…
