Friday Letters, InstaRecap, and a DIY

Dear Husband, your Anniversary presents were so wonderful and so sweet. I loved every single one :)  Dear Paper, thanks for being such a fun traditional gift for first wedding anniversaries ;) Dear anniversary post, we had a lot of fun writing you and answering questions. Dear Monday, I am kind of dreading you. Dear new job, I am excited to start you on Monday, but I'm also freaking out because I am so overwhelmed. I know we'll get along in the long run, but I hope we get along the first few days... I am counting on you as much as you are counting on me. Dear blog, I might be a little MIA for a couple weeks just until I get settled, but I promise to try my best to be wrong about this letter :P Dear readers, I really do love you all, and your comments seriously make my day. Thank you. Dear glitter that I used on this project, you are a PAIN, but it was worth it. Dear Husband, I love you, thanks for making life so amazing.
InstaRecap: Anniversary Edition
My gift for The Husband was a travel map of the world :) 
(bucket list item #47)
He also pre-ordered a Special Edition version of a video game 
he wants, that comes out next week :) 
Gifts from The Husband :)
Inside of the paper airplane, is that not the cutest? :)
We ended up getting the actual CD from Target because I wanted their edition.

Here's more on the map:
I used a frame with the glass taken out, attached cork backing and a map :) I couldn't find the color of push pins that I wanted, so I spray painted some clear ones I already had.
1. I used an old box to push the pins through. Be careful ;) I didn't know how many we'd need so I just filled up one face of the box :P
2. I spray painted them, I only used one coat, but it just depends on how you want your color to look :)
3. I put them in a little plastic box I already had to we'd have extras somewhere safe :) 

I stole this photo from The Husband's instagram ;) 

Happy Friday! :)
