Etsy Nautical Wedding Search & Boutique Blog Love

Some of my invitation research has taken me to Etsy, where I've done a new nautical wedding search, to see what pretty things come up.  Here's what I found.

These cute little favor bags, from Life Is So Beautiful, 10 3x5" bags for $11.50.

This nautical invitation suite by Ivandy27 featuring navy and white stripes, with touches of pinks (my wedding colors!).

And another one, but with pewter this time:

I really like this office design.  Kind of reminds me of what I have in store for the living room.

Moving on now to Green Ribbon Parties.  Check this out.  Love this cake.  Love, love, love.

Which led me to cool papers by Posh Paperie - especially these hand drawn maps!
