The ever-wonderful OffBeatBride.Com just posted a recent interview with me about my book and about the current state of the DIY wedding world. (Thanks, Ariel!)

One of Ariel’s questions, “How do you suggest combating the “DIY-er than thou” frenzy that some crafty brides work themselves into?“, has been on my mind quite a bit. It’s certainly been the topic of several conversations I’ve had with both industry pros and brides lately. I honestly don’t have a good answer.

I really want to talk with you about it.  With all of the incredible DIY projects and how-to info coming online, does it help inspire you or does it cause more frustration? Are you feeling the pressure to be more crafty/original/indie/offbeat/xyz? How are you dealing with all of that? Or does it bother you at all?

I’m really curious if you’re experiencing what I think you’re going through. And I’m even more curious what advice you would give to others who might be feeling bad about not feeling/being crafty enough.

Here’s a quick poll. Please feel free to leave comments, too.
