For all you other DIY brides out there i have discovered a great place to get free stuff!! yes i said FREE!! My sister suggested i check out freecycle.org in my area ... you can join the community and everything on it is free (not all wedding related , other cool stuff too!) I joined a while back but just had the idea to throw out a post saying i needed anything for a wedding.. candles, jars, vases, ringbearer pillow etc. Posted my first request yesterday and got a hit already today! A really nice lady named Dana ( a december 2010 bride herself) offered me a ringbearer pillow and unused guestbook! Went and picked it up and got to talking to her and she's pretty cool :) she offered me TONS of free stuff after her wedding is done ie: stuff for a candy bar, flowers etc! I'm planning on personalizing the guest book by covering it with fabric and other decorations. So tickled that i just had to share with all you other ladies out there!
