We recently got to spend a weekend with friends out at the cabins where we got married on the San Gabriel River in Liberty Hill, Texas. I had just found a vintage Diana camera (from the '60s probably) on eBay, and I took it along to capture some images. There is still a little water in poor drought-stricken Texas as you can see... just a little bit.<br />

<br />
I am loving the fact, I can save DIY tutorials and inspiration for later, and it's perfect for me since I am a very visually minded person. I've started inspiration boards for <a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/diy-and-crafts/">DIY & crafts</a>, for <a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/peach-navy-wedding/">inspiration for custom wedding party jewelry designs</a>, <a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/inspired-weddings/">inspired weddings</a> for my <a href="http://nostalgiafilm.wordpress.com/">Nostalgia Film blog</a>, <a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/photography/">photography</a>, <a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/covet-it/">things I covet</a>, other random <a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/design-and-inspiration/">design & inspiration</a>, and more (<a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/foodie/">food</a>, <a href="http://pinterest.com/nostalgiafilm/away-we-go/">travel</a>, etc.). Here are some of my favorite DIY projects I am saving for a rainy day (though it may be a while since there's a major drought in Texas!):<br />

I will be working on a slew of new things this weekend for the site and for <a href="http://www.lovelyaustin.com/">Lovely Austin</a>. If you're local, stop by <a href="http://www.lovelyaustin.com/">Lovely Austin</a>: they have many pairs of my rose stud earrings for just $10 and new brass bobby pin sets for just $12. Both make great gifts!<br />
<br />
I also have some special new items up in the shop that are particularly dear to me--a one-of-a-kind necklace made with an estate brooch that would be perfect for a bridal look, and a very long locket, that has the perfect combination of brass components and pearls...<br />

I recently participated in a wedding show for my other business with my husband, <a href="http://www.nostalgiafilm.com/">Nostalgia Film</a>. I went about preparing for a wedding show, much like a craft show and sewed a custom table runner and three sets of bunting to match our business colors, which inspired me to add custom <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/54881882/custom-wedding-pennant-flags-bunting">bunting</a> back to <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/SoCoDivka">my etsy shop</a>! <br />

<b>What's your favorite Christmas tune for the perfect holiday mix tape? Let me know in the comments! </b><br />
<br />
I've had "Last Christmas" by Wham in my head all week! (I also hear the <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/last-christmas-glee-cast-version/id342070880">Glee version</a> is great!) I'm also loving Electronic Santa from Blazer Force. Did you know you can download a whole FREE indie Christmas mix, <a href="http://www.target.com/b?node=2492229011&ref=sr_shorturl_holidayalbum">The Christmas Gig</a>, on Target's website?<br />
