custom cake toppers on etsy: any good deals or DIYs?
NLeo in Do It Yourself, on February 23, 2014 at 7:17 PM

For cake toppers, my FH really only likes the custom ones on etsy that they will customize to look like each of you. However, they seem to start at about $100 and I just can't justify paying...

How to Re-Dye Silk Flowers
NLeo in Do It Yourself, on February 11, 2014 at 9:55 PM

I ordered hand dyed silk flowers on etsy. They are not exactly the color I wanted but I don't think it's worth paying to ship it back to have them re-dyed and shipped back again. It's only a few so I...
