DIY Wedding Contest Voting!

December 31st. 2007 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 168 comments

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend! Today is voting day! We are going to be voting in the comments section of this post. With that said, I have a few “rules” for voting…first, please only list the number and corresponding project name (ie. #1 – DIY Wedding Cake). The more words that you put in your vote, the harder it is for me to tally everything up. Second, please only vote ONCE. If there are duplicate votes from the same person, I will only count one.

As a reminder, the prize for the winner is a $100 gift certificate to the online store of your choice…plus, the guys over at Chronicle Books have been sweet enough to offer a copy of DIY Weddings, written by the oh-so-talented Kimberly Bare. So nice of them!
