On Saturday, I went to visit my mama, and was ecstatic to find the new issue of Martha Stewart Weddings waiting for me! My FMIL bought me a subscription when Matthew and I first got engaged, and I love getting inspiration from the magazine.
In the newest issue, however, Martha not only steals my idea (which was inspired by her in the first place, but whatever!), she does it soooo much better than me!
How can I compete with this?
Now, Martha does offer a tutorial. Don't you sometimes think that she gives us the step by step just to mock us? I wouldn't be surprised if she did a DIY guide to brain surgery one of these days! I might have my mama take a look at the pattern and see if she can whip them up. Than I could have two types of flowers alternating on the tables. Sigh. I should probably just stick to my easier, more plain version, but I am an envious person by nature, and these are just so beautiful!
Perhaps my Martha addiction is an unhealthy one?
Personally, I would just stick with the one. I think the two flowers are very different styles, and if you used both it would just end up looking a bit messy and overdone. Plus that second flower looks like waaaay more work. :P
