We love the Do-It-Yourself trend! Homemade details and knick-knacks with special meaning for a couple are our FAVORITE. If you’re like us then you’ve probably heard of Etsy?

Etsy is a virtual marketplace for all sorts of handmade goodies. Anyone can start a shop on Etsy and sell art, jewelry, clothes, vintage items and the list goes on. It’s an awesome place to find all sorts of stuff for your home and for your wedding.

What you might not have heard of is the virtual marketplace that is specifically for weddings; Wedzu. Wedzu is like the sister to Etsy made for brides! Designers on Wedzu are dedicated to helping brides make the perfect stationary, bridesmaid’s dresses and invitations.

The editors are awesome and they post fun, new vendors on the blog every few days. You can search different categories like jewelry, honeymoon, beauty and more. Check out these beautiful veils from Sibo Designs! It’s so much fun to browse around… enjoy!

Wrapped up in that little blue box is the new Tiffany Grace collection.  The collection features princess-cut and round brilliant diamonds bezel-set in platinum.

The tiara sparkles with an open pattern of circles and squares that would top off a gown with gorgeous.

Tennis champion Maria Sharapova wore these diamond drop earrings from the collection at the 2011 US Open.  If only I could wear something like this while exercising- it would make it all worth it!

You can find this beautiful collection at your Tiffany’s store or online!
