If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw the gorgeous wedding my daughter, sweet friend Haylee, my sister, and I recently put together. It turned out absolutely stunning! We spent the day before making 13 eucalyptus garlands, which were a first for me.
Thanks to multiple YouTube videos, I figured it out, and they turned out beautifully with white roses tucked in.
For the food, the bride’s family prepped mini charcuterie cups with skewers of salami, cheese, and donuts, along with grapes hanging off the front. We used some of my white 2-tiered trays to display the charcuterie cups.
Remember I made these charcuterie cups for my niece’s baby shower that you can see here.
I’ll be sharing more about this wedding when I get the photos back from the photographer.
If you’re feeling spontaneous, join me in Italy this September! We’ll tour castles, take cooking classes, enjoy an e-bike ride along the Adriatic coast, and of course, indulge in incredible Italian food. Check out my itinerary and book a trip with me here: Italy Tour Details
As always, please link up and share your gorgeous photos of projects you’ve been working on. I can’t wait to see some fall ideas start rolling in! I hope you will pop over to visit some of the must-See DIYs and Delicious Recipes here at my Linky Party.

What a lovely wedding reception. And I love those charcuterie cups (and I see buckets of popcorn, too)! We had charcuterie boats at my mom's memorial. Everyone loved them! Thanks for hosting!
Oh wow; those wedding photos are so lovely! You did a great job on your garlands!! I'd love to book a tour to Italy with you but this fall is already far too expensive and busy. Perhaps next time. My husband doesn't like traveling to foreign countries but I'm trying to convince him that tours are the way to go then we don't have to worry about any language barriers that way!
Wow Karin, is there anything you can't do?!!! The wedding sounds amazing! Thanks so much for the party and good luck with your new Italy tours!
Great inspiration , Karin. Using Eucalyptus for the garlands was a wonderful idea and turned out beautifully. thanks again for hosting each week. Appreciate the feature for "Thrifted Bottle Finds". Simple is sometimes the best way to go. Have a great week.
