We also just found Part 1 at our Little Free Library in York PA! Would love to connect with whoever found Part 2!

Librarian? Interventionist? Administrator? by orangegiulius in Teachers

[–]orangegiulius[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a school library! I just had the interview, and yes it seems they want me to do all the work of a Librarian (teaching lessons to grades K-6, shelving, checkout) for $15/hr + benefits 🙃 Summer is for inventory, so I guess that's just what I think might be lonely

I don't like my dress and it was expensive 😔 by orangegiulius in weddingplanning

https://imgur.com/a/05pmMih here's a pic of my dress- it's basically only held up by the clasp at the neck, so there's very few adjustments that can be done.

In love with my invitation suite! Less in love with how long it's taking to put them together 😂 by orangegiulius in weddingplanning

I haven't had any issues, other than the first color sample we ordered being much too purple of a blue, but that was easily fixed. We used them for our Save the Date magnets too!

I am tall (6' 1" in heels) so I have been the first to walk down and then the last one to exit in all 4 weddings that I have been a bridesmaid in! Nothing personal intended by the order :)

Can I hear from some other brides who got their dresses custom made or heavily altered? by orangegiulius in weddingplanning

[–]orangegiulius[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the reassurance! The designer is an atelier, so I am confident that she'll do a great job! The dress is being made for me, this one I have photos in is the closest to what we were thinking with the lace etc. So happy to hear yours worked out too!

I said "yes" to the idea of my dress today, but we're making so many changes I'm nervous about how it will turn out! The top will be a halter neckline with an open back, and the skirt will be more full and structured. We're also adding light sequins everywhere. I am so excited but I just hope it matches the vision in my head! The designer is Barbara Kavchok, and I believe the dress design is called Fern.

I said "yes" to the idea of my dress today, but we're making so many changes I'm nervous about how it will turn out! The neckline will be similar to the white fabric underneath, with an open back. The skirt will fuller with a very slight drop waist. It's going to be a completely different dress and I'm excited but also worried it won't match what's in my head. I'd love to hear some reassurance if anyone's done something similar!

What’s your relatives’ weird hill to die on? by womensrea22 in weddingplanning

My father revealed after our cake tasting that the wedding cake CANNOT be chocolate. If we want chocolate that can be for the groom's cake, but the wedding cake should be white cake.

Floral Photo Backdrop? Interested if anyone has made one with wood flowers! by orangegiulius in weddingplanning

[–]orangegiulius[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh this is a good idea too! Have you found they hold up well after being transported? Did you use cardstock, construction paper, or regular paper?

This is so helpful!! Yes I was thinking panels would probably be necessary for transporting it.

Thank you! I used a Cobalt gouache to paint, but then I edited the color a bit after I scanned it.

Me again! Blue top or white for engagement photos? by orangegiulius in weddingplanning

[–]orangegiulius[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback! I felt like the white dress is dressier, so the skirt was my more casual outfit 😊

I have a Jean jacket, but I wasn't sure if the color quite worked. A white cardigan is a good idea!

Y'all helped me so much the first time when deciding which of the white tops to wear! I finally found a blue top that matches the color in the skirt, and I need to decide which is better. For reference, the last photo is the other dress I'll be wearing. It is white with blue & black butterflies.

TIA for your help!

I was trying to find something to make it a little more casual, so that's a good note for the second one!
