Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

I am not crafty at all. I would like to do the slipper basket. I am going to wrap my own favors. I have to try to come up with a nice idea for that. I want to come up with an idea for seating cards. But I need to find the one.

Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

I was gonna DIY for some things, but I am too pooped with nursing school. Kudos to you ladies!

What is the Tiffany Blue cardbox??

Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

I'd like to make as much of my own stuff as possible... I don't know exactly what yet, but I've been tossing around ideas.

My things I definitely want to make myself (if I do them at all):
1. tiara
2. veil (or I'd be adapting my mom's veil)
3. wish bowl/guest book (haven't decided which yet)
4. memory candles/table stuff
5. ceremony programs

Things I've been thinking about doing myself:
1. Invitations
2. Favors
3. Jewelry for the bridesmaids
4. chuppah
5. other kinds of decorative things, for the seating card table or around the guest book/wish bowl, etc.
6. Cardbox.

I'm sure more will pop up as I go, it's still pretty early in the planning. I don't plan on doing things like the slipper basket or personalized menus, but if I did do them I would make those myself as well. My hall provides menus and seating cards, so I don't need to worry about things like that.

I wish I could get started, but it feels way to early to me! I don't want to start making things and then in a year decide I want a whole different color scheme!

You probably know my theme is gonna be tiffany blue/acqua so i thought a cute thing to do to sorta incorporate the theme a little more is to make this tiffany box for the wedding envelopes at the end of the night. when the guests come to say goodnight and gove us their gift we'll just put it in the tiffany box. The only reason i'm reconsidering it is because i think my theme is switching a lil. still in the blue family but not quite tiffany blue

well after i went to visit with the florist he showed me how he can make my roses in a ice blue color which i loved and that totally would clash with the tiffany blue because it's a bluish green. and my centerpieces are ivory roses with light blue hydrangeas so again the tiffany blue color wouldn't really match so now i'm thinking of having the BM's in a paler blue so they match with their flowers...i just hope i don't change my mind again

im also thinking of a teal - and the only thing thats steering me away from it is the flowers - im a matching freak - and i wouldnt want to add different colors - but I def want blue - its my fav color
Did you ask the florist abt the spraypainting the color on the tips of the roses?

I'm sure they can do it because they're spraypainting my entire rose so I don't see why they wouldn't be able to spraypaint just the tip and the color is gorgeous! Do u have a florist in mind yet?

Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

We'll be making the petal cones, and probably personalized menus, if we can find the proper paper that we want.

Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

I love crafts...so here is the projected list!

OOT bags
Slipper baskets
Bathroom baskets
Monogram cake topper
Programs
Menus
Placecards
Photo cube
Petal Cones
Cry packs
I DO letters
and quite possible the centerpieces!

Once I finish, I will be sure to add pics!

Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

Well, I'm not all that crafty but here's my list thus far.

Save the Dates
Card box
Invitations
Programs (maybe)
Centerpieces (maybe)
Monogram cake topper
I DO letters

I am sure I will add others as time goes by, but I am lucky if I can cut and glue!

Re: What DIY projects is everyone thinking of making?

I'm not very creative so im thinking just the placecards and donation scroll
