DIY Engagement Gift The Aisle File

December 12, 2018 by My Farmhouse Table Leave a Comment

DIY Engagement Gift

The week of Thanksgiving was an exciting time as my best friend, Bree, became engaged! A few days after her big announcement, we had already scheduled a “friend date” to eat pizza, drink wine, and veg out on her couch watching the premiere of “A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding” on Netflix. But on top of that we decided it would be a good time to start looking at venues, vendors, and of course dresses! And what better to help with her planning than this DIY Engagement Gift “The Aisle File”.

This gift isn’t anything fancy.

I mostly just walked through the store and picked out items that were both fun and functional for her wedding planning process. 

Items to help keep her organized and on task:

Folders

A Notebook

Colorful Pens

And Post It Notes

Items to pamper:

Facemasks

Nail Polish

A “Happy Engagement” card

And a Kleenex packet (as there will be both happy and stressed tears in the coming months).

Of course, I couldn’t forget the wedding planning treats.

A bottle from our favorite brand of wine.

And Dove chocolate.

All the items fit perfectly into a beautiful dark wood magazine file I picked up at Target.

(Target always takes all my money!)

The magazine file held everything perfectly and made an easy and functional engagement gift that will hopefully serve Bree well as she continues to plan her summer wedding at the Schafer Barn where my friend, Jen, was married back in 2017.

Love ya chica! Happy planning!

It has finally felt like spring this week 🙌🏻 It has finally felt like spring this week 🙌🏻 and because of that I’m turning to thoughts of my summer flower and veggie garden. 

With the pandemic this past year, I was more thankful then ever that I’ve been starting my plants from seed as all the local nurseries and greenhouses were sold out pronto. Plus, it lets me try out new varieties that aren’t as popular in my neck of the woods.

Starting seeds can be so fun, but I’ve made plenty of mistakes in the past, that with the blog post today I’m hoping to help you from making my same blunders.
