Jan 22 | Fun & Easy Projects to add to your Wedding | by Cynthia

It doesn't take much to add a spark of imagination to your wedding to gain the "WOW" factor with your guests.  Below, we have three DIY Projects that you can do - no instructions needed - easy peesy, but will add the fun, "why-didn't-I-think-of-that" aspect to any event.

We think that this roll or brown paper mounted on a round long dowel would be perfect as a Guest Book, Escort Card Service, Well Wishes to the Couple, Bar or Food Menu.  It would also make a great Program at the beginning of your Ceremony.  Photo Source

Inexpensive Vases can be had for a song at any discount store, Salvation Army or Goodwill. Spray painting them a signature color creates drama and cohesion.  They can be used anywhere for your wedding - as centerpieces, bouquet holders, tied to the end of chairs to frame an aisle, tucked here and there for a spot of color, or even as Guest Favors.  Photo Source

 

Need some Centerpiece ideas?  These frames are from an inexpensive discount store, glued together at the corners, then slipped over a candle in a glass container.  They would be a great way to show off engagement pictures or family pictures on each Guest Table.  Photo Source
 

DIY Projects | Flour Hearts

Today's DIY posting is ridiculously simple and  one of those "why-didn't-I-think-of-that" kind of project.   Love the hearts for an aisle runner or simple pathway to the Ceremony or Reception.   If you are not into hearts, then your initials, circles, arrows, pretty much anything you can think of will do. 

Your guests will love your creativity and the best part - No clean up!  The next rain will wash it away!

DIY Projects | Lanterns to light the way

Since this is DIY Week, we thought that today's project was perfect for giving your guests a lasting memory of your wedding day.   These lanterns fill the bill perfectly, allow you to express your individuality by choosing any color or container and literally take just minutes to assemble.  DIY Instructions

DIY Projects | Spring Fun

Do it yourself projects for your wedding event can be simple and fun.  Keep in mind that just because they may not take much work, their impact can still pack quite a punch and keep your guests wondering, "How did she do that?"

We couldn't help but share these two fun projects for a spring event.  If they are too simple for your wedding, consider massing them for more of an impact. Thinking outside the box keeps your creative juices flowing and your wedding budget in tact!

We love this fun idea.  In addition to filling vases with colorful buttons, you could add buttons to Escort Cards, make them into Napkin Rings, add them in your bouquet and anywhere else you need a little burst of color.

We totally love the idea of flowers under glass.   These are simple, I agree, but if you massed them down the center of a table with candles on top of the glasses and beside, this easy idea becomes very sophisticated and chic.
