Emily over at Once Wed was kind enough to invite me to be a part of her Table Trends project. I loved every second of the process and had a great time making all the elements for my table, and putting it all together. Here are a few shots of the end results. You can visit Once Wed to see more images of my table and other Table Trend creations as well.
