It looks sooo awesome w/ the ribbon!! Did you paint the whole thing freehand?

yeah right! lol i printed out what i wanted in a really big font and then taped the pieces together and put it under my aisle runner where i wanted and traced it in pencil first then filled it in with an aqua marker and then i found this black marker pen at ac moore that i outlined all the letters in bc i didnt like how the sharpie bled through a little and wasnt completely straight

first i bought the material from joannes fabric and crafts (i bought 25 yards of white bleached muslin) it comes in a huge roll

then read the post above for how i did the lettering

then i hot glued ribbon to the sides....its time consuming but really easy to do!

MY GOD! That came out AMAZING!
You did the coloring with a Sharpie? How long did it take you to do? Did you have any help? What do you plan to do with it after the wedding? Can I ask how much it cost to make? Sorry...I'm full of questions, because I am debating doing one myself.
