185 painted pine cones-






We picked some pine cones to decorate our house when we went hiking last time.  We like them so well that we put them on our shelf for decoration.  When we started to prepare for our wedding, we wanted to use these pine cones to hold the guest's name card.  We picked over 180 pine cones in the mountains.  I was surprised there were many pine cones everywhere even though it was spring.  It was a fantastic experience to pick these for our big day.  And then, I painted them with white paint with a tooth brush.  My friend helped me, so we could finish in a day.   





We took lots of photos with our wedding photographer to make many memories before wedding.  I didn't want to wear a wedding dress and heavy make-up.  So we just wore our clothing and went to a park, river, some cafes and our house.  We were relaxed and posed in a natural background.  It was really fun!!!  I want to say to thank to my friend, my brother and the photographers who joined us.  Now, we have many many fancy photos of us. :)
