The 1st Anniversary

Tradition points to a paper related gift for a 1-year wedding anniversary… well, needless to say for us paper lovers, this is great news! Paper is said to symbolize strength as well as delicate nature of a one-year old marriage. Whether you’re in to the symbolism or following that particular tradition, we’ve fallen for this sentimental anniversary gift ( or Valentines Day present… hint, hint!) from Suzy Shoppe.

They will incorporate a love letter, wedding vows or sentimental song lyrics to make this piece of art an expression of the couple. And if you’re in wedding planning mode, fear not because Suzy Shoppe also offers an adorable option for a guest “book”!

Pink peep toes

Did you realize that Valentine’s Day is just one week from today?! Oh goodness, how the days are just sneaking up on us! In honor of the impending holiday, we had to share this gorgeous shot from Jessica Strickland Photography that highlights these saucy hot pink wedding shoes along with the bride and groom’s wedding rings. The contrast of these vibrant, glitzy colors is just perfection.

If you’re planning your wedding, will you be donning colored shoes under your gown?

DIY: Perfect Pillows

Oh Monday, what shall we do with you? Oy, that was a rough game for those of us rooting for the Pats- did you catch it? This next week {at the least} will be a somber one in New England. What’s better to cheer up the blues but a little crafting time? After recently coming to terms with the fact that I have major throw pillow obsession of mine in full force, I cast aside all cares and continue to crush on this spunky, customizable cushion that was originally spotted on Whit and Whistle.

OBSESSED. Can you imagine the possibilities? Quotes, a favorite Bible verse, a wedding vow…? Such a sentimental addition to any home and what a sweet gift this would be!!

Game Day Goodies

It’s FRIDAY! And not just any Friday… the Friday before Super Bowl Sunday. Yes, this means it’s likely that you’re gearing up to host or attend a party for Sunday’s festivities. I don’t know about you, but we’re pumped to see the Pats take home another win!!!

While some of this weekend will likely be devoted to cooking and preparing for the game, we wanted to share our top picks for Super Bowl recipes… but if you’re hosting, don’t forget to have some “healthy” snacks in there too!

1: Balsamic Honey Pulled Pork Sliders

2:  Oven Fries and Spicy Mayo

3: Cucumber Crudite Dip

Enjoy your weekend, lovelies!!

True Art

One thing that is truly inspiring to us at Paper Moss is seeing other art mediums. These perfectly captured designer purse sketches are a prime example. We love every last detail put into this work of art… not just the handbags, but the personality surrounding each of them. How amazing would this be hanging in a frame?
