EVERY bride wants her wedding to be memorable. Sometimes that quality is brought out by the little extras that make an event unique.
You don't have to have a team of artists to be able to put a special do-it-yourself stamp on your wedding. Invitations, place cards, programs, table settings and more can all be personalized through your own creativity.
Authors Laura Maffeo and Colleen Mullaney have an abundance of experience on magazines and books relating to crafts, floral design and special occasions.
Maffeo has worked as a stylist for Martha Stewart Weddings. They share their ideas in detail in this collection.
In each chapter they provide step-by-step instructions on how to create several options for the project they have focused on. Suggested materials, tools needed and photographs of the process all make for an easy to follow approach that can guide anyone to a beautiful finished product.
Whether it is the best way to attach flowers to create a floral arch or how to make a magnetic save the date notice, there is an idea for any DYI inclined bride to be.
