Updates on paper DIY

Hi again- I guess this is turning into my personal wedding diary, but I'm going to update anyway, at least I'll look at it... =)
I took a few pics of some things I have been working on, so you can see MY versions of the example pics I posted before.  The invites will have to wait- I ordered some paper and am working on a template design...who knew it would be this hard??  I am having some second thoughts about doing the invites, but I really like the idea of doing it myself (maybe the same part of myself that had the brilliant idea of grad school...) And maybe I just want to be able to say I did it, but regardless, I ordered $200 worth of paper and envelopes so I'm pretty much stuck now! 
For the rest of my projects:
Here is a pic of the tissue packs I am making:

Those are kindof a side job as I get scraps from the pinwheels and everything else!

Here is a pic of the one lonely pinwheel I've made so far.  I'm debating whether to keep it like this, or I have some of those different edged scissors I can use to cut into the square which might have a cool effect to it...Stay tuned for updates on that..

I'm not sure why that didn't rotate, but the stick poking out of the left side is attached and that is the holder.  I love how these look! =)

Then One last thing I have is the vases for my centerpieces; as you may remember (or forgot) we are doing the cakes on the tables, but not all of them  as each cake serves more than 10.  The point is, we need some kind of centerpiece for about 1/3 of the guest tables as well as something for after the cake is served on each table, so heres the plan:  Each cake will have a white hydrangea on top and the centerpieces will have this square candle holder with a white hydrangea on top so they all match:

Except it will be a real flower and white, not this fake purple I bought.  And the cake tables will have the glass under the cake and then when they take the cake away, the hydrangea will go on top of the glass. and then everything will match.  We will also have some of these on the head table, in between the vases with bouquets in them.   I was pretty excited about these- I'm using Cherry Blossom and the owner Jodee is so awesome.  She is giving me a great deal and doesn't even charge any delivery or set up fees.  Lovin it!

Ok- well I have to get back to work on my paper comparing and contrasting two different types of theoretical frameworks for group psychotherapy...sounds fun right?  And you wonder why I have pages and pages of blog...
