ASAMI MICHELLE HASEGAWA

Well, I will be attending my friend’s wedding this saturday. Knowing that her and her fiancee are wine lovers, I wanted to give them some nice wine glasses and something they can keep. Creating her wedding invitations, I used the motifs for the label with the couple’s name on it and added their theme color corsage. Honestly, I’m not sure why but she loves pigs, so I made a mat with a felt fabric.

My mother-in-law sent me a beautiful chopstick rest for my birthday. It was so delicate and elegant that I wanted to share it with everyone.

I had a dress from H&M that needed a remake…So, I bought a green and navy patterned fabric at Soho Purl yesterday. The bottom part is the original dress and the top part is made by me. It took me about 5 hours to finish, but I think it was worth creating from scratch.

The past few months, I have been busy with work and lost control of my weekends. I’ve realized that it was the most relaxing Sunday I have spent this year.

Another of my handmade thank you gift for my husband’s friend. A combination of charms and chains for a cellular phone.

Since I had an destination wedding, many of our friends from Japan were unable to attend but still sent us gifts. To show our appreciation, we wanted to send out a heartwarming thank you gift that everybody would enjoy. Right after returning from my honeymoon, the first thing I did was to shop for the perfect gift and to create something really creative but nice. I found beautiful starfishes at West Elm and glued them on to a magnet from Michael’s. Hopefully, I will be able to send them out this week, and everyone will enjoy a little summer.

Found a beautiful corsage at Tinsel Trading and pinned it on to the ring pillow.

A week until the wedding and I’ve made my final choices for the menu. I am pretty sure that everyone will enjoy the food, but just to make sure, I searched the internet for the perfect course menu. I will print the menus for both adult and children today and paste them on the gate folders sometime soon.

With a coloring page and crayons to keep them busy

Well, I am finally done with the escort cards and table cards. All I need are the table displays…
