Wow another year over, where did the time go? Huge hugs to all of our blog readers, everyone who contributed and commented over the last twelve months. We couldn't do the i do it yourself blog without you. And taking all of your feedback on board, next year there will be more DIY wedding projects, more real weddings and more decorating ideas so watch this space.

One of my favourite mood boards this year was the crazy Alice in Wonderland wedding from February.

In March I got married!

I love this DIY project from April for decorating wedding invitations!

May we launched one of our most popular products, the guest book fingerprint tree!

Another hugely popular product from this year, June we released the tie the knot wedding stationery range.

Another favourite wedding inspiration board this year was Julys winter theme based around the beautiful Australian ghost gum trees.

In August we had fun with romantic pastel shades and designed these cute lemonade labels

Probably my favourite stationery design this year was the Sweet Sakura range

In October we had out first national print magazine mention... ahhhh

Finally able to share one of my favourite DIY projects in November, ceramic painting

There were lots of free wedding downloads this year but my personal fav has to be the funky Alice in Wonderland inspired cupcake toppers or labels. Hope you find a use for them! See you all in 2011!

What a nice present for Christmas day, we've been featured on the esty home page with our tie the knot save the date. Merry Christmas!

There's no doubt, everyone loved the idea of using old tin cans as vases when we mentioned it back in January. (See the original post here) Perhaps our readers liked the environmentally friendly wedding project or just that cute rustic style. Either way, get your can openers ready -here are ten great wedding projects to recycle those old tins.

I've had a bit of an obsession lately with the willow pattern, but looks like someone else did too. Wish I knew who to credit for this amazing dress. Careful when you sit down!

One of our most popular posts this year was a cute little DIY project - birdcage cake stands. The bride spotted some old birdcages in Chinatown and converted them into beautiful table centrepieces. She spray painted them gold and create tiers inside wrapped in Japanese paper for the cupcakes to sit on.

So how about some other ideas to transform old birdcages?

Try simple centrepieces of flowers inside beautiful rustic old cages. Or how about suspending lots of small cages around outdoor lights for a fabulous display?

Birdcage wedding card holders a proving to be a popular choice at the moment. Deigned to hold gift cards they are a pretty way to decorate your gift table and keep all your cards together. Readily available from online wedding shops or transform a vintage find, just make sure the bars are far enough apart to fit your cards!

This year our most popular design and popular blog post by far has been the fingerprint guest book tree.

A beautiful unique way to make an impression on your wedding day is to ask guest to leave their fingerprint to act as a leaf on your tree. But lots of people have asked - how do I explain the process to my guests? So we've designed this pretty sign you can download, print and display next to your guest book.

Congratulations to Mimi! Winner of last months fabulous fascinator giveaway from RTISAN.

Decoupaged plates are a beautiful way to display memories of your wedding. Made with scraps of paper you could incorporate left over wedding stationery and bits of paper decorations, paper that wrapped your wedding gifts and of course photos from the day. They also make beautiful gifts for bridesmaids and parents.

The ceremony was decorated with a collection of blue and white china vases sourced from family and friends and filled with a mix of ivory flowers. Elaine DIYed many of the details herself, including the invitations and programs with a vintage skeleton key illustration, a theme that was carried though with the decorations. Guests were also asked to write a little wish to the couple on cute vintage luggage tags decorated with their photos.
