More DIY entries to inspire you! These perfect wedding details are just beautiful…they seem to add a personal touch, while still seeming effortless!
To Make the Fans…
These are just brown cardstock, white cardstock (run through my printer), wooden fan handles and ribbon. I used double sided tape to adhere the white page with content onto the brown cardstock and then used my gluegun to sandwhich the handle between both pieces of brown cardstock. Embellished with a ribbon, they looked super cute!
To Make Seed Packs…
They were “planted” in a flat of wheat grass that I grew from seeds I found at my local garden center. It grows super fast and I actually had to “trim” it several inches before the wedding to keep in manageable. The numbers were printed on white cardstock and cut to even strips. The names were printed on pink vellum and trimmed with a scalloped scissor. I overlayed the name over the number to create the effect seen here. The whole thing was put together with some double sided tape. I then hot-glued a skewer to the back and stuck it down into the grass in alphabetical rows.
To Make the Personalized Drink Flags…
A little added flair to their signature cocktail…customized stirrers. There are just long wooden skewers that I attached pink cardstock to. I ran it through my printer, cut out the strips and used double sided tape to adhere it to the skewer.
To Make the Monogram Letters…
Love using unique elements to decorate and personalize…these were hung on the church doors and were made out of moss in keeping with the natural air of this event. You can make them out of anything to match whatever decor is appropriate. I start by printing the letters in whatever font matches our other paper products. Using a photocopier, I blow up the letter until it’s the size I want. Sometimes this involves printing the same letter across multiple sheets and piecing it together like a big puzzle. I then trace it on a piece of 2″ think styrofoam board (from Michael’s crafts) and cut it out with a craft knife. Using a glue gun and a bunch of moss (also from Michael’s) you can create a custom piece for less than $20.
