Too late for a custom aisle runner?

I really wanted a custom aisle runner but I think it is too late to get one. I considered making my own, but I am not crafty. Am I out of luck?

Re: Too late for a custom aisle runner?

You might be too late for a custom one to be ordered. But check it out anyway... start contacting people.

As far as making one.. you don't have to be crafty... as long as you can trace and color in between lines you should be able to do it.

Just buy one from AC Moore or Michaels. Then print out the monogram or style of your names... take that to a print shop (or work if you can) and blow up the image... then place it under the runner and trace it. you can use either Acrylic paint or sharpee markers. I think you have to be careful with the markers though.. so you don't rub it too much and make a hole in it.

Lots of girls are making them... I hear they are super easy... and I plan on making my own as well.

There's a seller on Ebay that makes beautiful ones with a quick turnaround. My friend got hers less than a month before her wedding.

If you are going to order it then you have to order it like TODAY! You want to have it at least a few days before the wedding.


Contact an etsy supplier and see what they can do for you if you're not up to making one.
