Does anyone know how to make this? I heard that you are suppose to print out each letter and tape it to the floor... is there an easier way to do this?

Re: Aisle Runner
I know some gals used a projector. Like the school ones and traced it on the wall. Now I don't know if this is the easiest way. I am going to make a pattern online and then I guess enlarge them at Staples or something ... and then trace. HTH

Re: Aisle Runner
Here are the directions on the aisle runner. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. This was SOOO simple and I thought it would be a nightmare.
1. Copied the font from my invitations (see in my album: Bickham). 2. I printed out the 'M' in 800 font in MS publisher 3. In MS publisher 2007 I choose the 'Poster' option and then the 44x33 inch option allowing for only a 34 inch width (because that was the width of my aisle runer minus 2 inched) 4. Print the 'M' and the date on 9, 8x10 standard pieces of paper. 5. Taped said pieces to my dining room table 6. With FINE sharpie, outline the whole design. 7. Take sanity brake. 8. Remove the papers under aisle runner as they will confuse you. 9. Place paper under Aisle runner, make sure the paper is 2x thick (2 pieces of paper for each section, the reason is that the sharpie will blead through and onto your table) 10. Fill in the outline with the REGULAR sharpie
I know if it doesnt seem dark enough but stand back and take a pic of it, it's perfect! Also, most catering halls and churches have dark floors. If you need any help, I am more than happy to assist! Good luck ladies
