To remind myself that I sometimes let the arts and crafts get out of hand, I chronicle below the do-it-yourself projects I undertook for the wedding:
- Our wedding website
- Pennant garlands galore (at least 50 yards of this stuff — contact me if you want to buy it!)
- Save-the-date cards: Chris and I set up an assembly line
- Invitations: more assembly lines for cutting out the inserts (seen here), compiling the pocket cards, and stamping the seal (Chris’s idea!) — but only the stamping process is seen here
- dabbing wax on the pocket card
- mark it with B!
and here’s the final product - My shoes: I painted these $40 black peep-toe pumps
and turned them into these
- Our wedding tree (in lieu of a guestbook)
- Pomanders for the aisle
- Ribbon sticks for the guests during the ceremony (these are for sale, too — contact if interested)
- Luminaries decorated with lace and fabric pinwheels (these are for sale, too — contact if interested)
- Doilies for the luminaries
- Chalkboards and tray for the guestbook table
- Fabric-covered wooden letters
