DIY: Wedding Cord

It's now 95 days left before our big day. I'm still recovering from being hospitalized a few days ago. While on rest, i got my hands working on our DIY project- our Wedding Cord. It's very light and so easy to do. I got it done in just a couple of minutes. I love the final outcome :)

Materials were bought from wellmanson at a very cheap price.

No tutorials for this one, sorry. But you can find good tutorials via web search engine.

I'll just share with you the final outcome of my "Bride's touch"  Plain and simple.

Taddaaaa...

A combination of our main motif, Pink and color accent, Aqua. I have included our initials too.

I have used my necklace's pendant for this cord. It looks cool, yes? It fits our fairytale theme. Love it.

Add a personal touch to your wedding. Unleash the creative side of you. It will not only save you money but you'll also realize how fun it is to do the things you love.

next diy mission: Fabric or Paper Flowers

Happy preps,

DIY: Will You Be My Bridesmaid?

Hey, I'm back! It's been a while since my last update here. I've been busy with lots of things. You know it's holiday season. But before this year ends, i would like to share my DIY: WYB favors for my lovely girls, my bridesmaids. This is a delayed post since this was supposed to be posted many weeks ago. Pardon!

Asking my girl friends to be my bridesmaid is an easy thing to do. But i thought of something which can somewhat makes them feel special :) Maybe just a simple favor would make them say "Yes" without any hesitation..*grin.

Here's my simple WYB idea:

First: I have bought  keychains with their initials on it. I got six of it for my 6 bridesmaid-to be's.

Second: I bought mini boxes. Since they come in 3's, i didn't get to choose colors because there are already multiple color boxes in a pack. Which goes fine with me.

Here are the complete stuffs for my DIY:
Keychains, mini boxes, crepe paper, scissor, stapler, ribbon, WYB notes

I grabbed some wyb message at the internet. Combined it into a simple poem. Have it printed. And here's what i've come up.

I wrapped the keychain with a crepe paper then wrapped it around the wyb printed note...

So here's the final outcome... tadaaaannnnnn....

Affordable, Simple and Cute.. 

Very easy thing to do...

You can try it too.

*** I already have distributed these favors  to my girl friends and they already said "Yes!". And i guess they liked it :)

Happy preps!

DIY: Wedding Monogram Part 2

I don't like my first set of monogram, the ones i have previously done. It's so simple and plain. Read as Boring. So i thought of making another sets. This time, it's a little swirly and crafty. Read as Simply cute. I love it.

Here's my second attempt:

Happy Preps!

xoxo,
