Jenny's DIY To-Do List


I know my list is long, probably longer than most brides. I believe that if you want something done right, you do it yourself. My mom is a very crafty person and pretty much taught me everything that she knows, and I have a little over a year to make everything. My goal is that if I work on a little something each week, in a year's time I'll have the wedding of my dreams for a fraction of the cost. Tom has been a great encouragement along the way, he is always praising my work and helps out whenever he can.
