diy excitement

I have been doing a lot of DIY projects and I find that it can be really relaxing. Who else loves DIY projects? Show me some pics. Here are a few projects I have done
Pic 1: centerpieces for my niece birthday party
Pic 2: our guest book sign
Pic3: my fiance's shirt for bridal wars. (A competition against other brides and their teams for prizes and offers. Extremely fun!)
Pic 4: me and my fiance wearing our shirts at bridal wars
Pic 5: me and my mom in our shirts at bridal wars
Pic 6: my bridal party in their shirts for bridal wars. We were M&M themed (Marcus and Marlisa) so they were all a different color of m&m. Their shirts said "pop the bubbly, she's getting a hubby"

    Your DIYs are looking good! I'm super happy you've been able to help relax with them. Me on the other hand, DIY stresses me out, so I only really made my own pew bows

    I diy’d everything that I could and that’s been a lot. The 🔑 is knowing your strengths and weaknesses. “🤔, what projects can I successfully complete”?

    I wanted to save 💵 where I could, so I made a list of what I wanted to do as far as decorations.

    Then, I formulated and implemented a plan to get those things done.

    This involved having % off coupons from the Craft stores and shopping online in the middle of the night for the last 2 years.

    I searched online and ordered 💐s,🌷s, 🌹s, and Calla Lillies.

    My 💜 was full when FH took the reigns in Spray Painting the Canvasses, deep Shadow box, and Card Box to display Wedding item that needed to become Silver yesterday.

    It just shows how in sync we are.

    He is as determined to save 💵 as I am.

    Thanks, to be honest I don't do too much with my cricut. i did the cups with it but clothing and bags and the boards that was all done with my screen printing equipment and the boards I made a stencil and painted it on there.

    I work for a lumber company so I have pretty easy access to wood honestly lol. I used 2x4s and 2x2s for frame and then pressed wood for top. I'm also making giant yahtzee from 4x4s

    Cricut machines are supposed to be very helpful in DIYing for weddings. I personally don't have one! These DIY bits have turned out awesome Smiley smile
