101 Simple Handmade Wedding Ideas

>> DIY FANATIC << UPDATED: JUST MARRIED, SWEET LOVE & THANK YOU BANNER TEMPLATES | Peonies & Pearls - The Ultimate UK Wedding & Lifestyle Blog Here's a really simple DIY project to make your wedding car look all pretty. I'd team this banner with some pretty ribbons and silver tin cans hanging from the bumper. That was my plan but we had no room left in the zillions of boxes we needed to take to Lithuania. Download the template HERE. Print on off white card, ideally with a mottled effect. I used thick watercolour paper. Ideally the sign would be lower down nearer to the bumper, but due to the shape of our car we couldn't do that :( xo

DIY pocketfolds how to (lots of effort but costs less than half!) Member 22 posts Newbee I like the A7 pocketfolds for my invites but they are $39.99 for 50 ($0.8 each) on paperandmore.com. I saved a lot of money by making my own using 12×12 cardstock (razzle pink), only $15.99 for 50, so only $0.32 each! I am not a graphic designer or anything close to that, but I find it pretty easy. I did some modifications on the dimensions of A7 pocketfolds sold on the website. First, outline the frame of the pocketfold on the 12X12 cardstock with a pensil and ruler (sorry for blurry photos!). Then, cut it out, careful just to make neat cuts and save the other part of the card stock for the pocket. Fold it in! Then, using the same technique, mark the outline of the pocket and cut it out. For the rest of the cardstocks after I cut out the pocket, I saved them and plan to use them for program/escort cards. This is the how the invitation looks like. 791 posts Busy bee Love them! The pensil marks are not noticible, I guess it has to do with the color of the paper. 7 posts

DIY Fan Wedding Programs « At Home Alterations It started with the engagement ring. Mike got me an Edwardian style ring from 1915 that has a lot of intricate filigree and antique charm. We chose to get married at the church we attend which meets in a 120 year old building and after looking at a ton of reception venues we settled on a 100 year old mansion. Before we knew it we had an antique classic theme. When it came time to make wedding programs, we kept relating back to the theme and fan programs seemed perfectly classic.... The Inspiration There are so many options out there! How To First Mike used his awesome computer skills to design a page with four fan blades in alternating rotation (there's a free template below!) Cost Breakdown We made 200 programs with 5 blades each so that's 1000 total blades. $15 for a ream of cream card stock (250 pages)$60 for printing$4.50 for three spools of ribbon on sale Total: $79.50 or 40 cents per program Free Templates Here are some templates for the fan blades that you can use for free.

tuto porte photo en cartonnage - papier peint, ou 1 feuille de papier fantaisie 50X70 cm - dossier de bureau ou feuille canson colorée - 130 cm de ruban. Prendre 3 des 6 cartons rigides et faire dedans une ouverture. Méthode pour l'ouverture: - tracer une croix en partant de chaque coin du carton. - compter 3 cm de chaque côté, - compter 2 cm à partir du haut et du bas, - tracer le rectangle dont les angles doivent obligatoirement être sur les diagonales que l'on a tracé en premier, vérifier à l'équerre les angles et découper les fenêtres. Recouvrir les cartons avec les fenêtres: méthode : - encoller le carton; - retourner immédiatement le carton et maroufler à l'aide d'un chiffon propre, - se remettre sur l'envers, inciser le papier au cutter au centre de la fenêtre, en réalisant une croix qui passe par chaque coin, puis recouper pour laisser une bande d'environ 1.5 cm - encoller le carton, et remonter le papier afin qu'il soit coller et bien tendu (la qualité de cet encollage est primordiale pour le rendu final).
