diy flowers

Don’t mind our garage and recycling!!

Wow I'm very impressed!! I'm definitely not crafty enough to DYI. I don't even know what I want in order to tell my florist. I hope she just takes my theme and budget to come up with something herself lol

LOL, I was thinking, wow that's enough recycling to cover a vendor payment maybe!! hahahaha I only find it funny because I have a similar pile going in my garage.

View Quoted Comment Thanks haha! This is my first time doing flowers. I’m pretty crafty in general though! If I were you I would google what is in season around the time of your wedding and pick what you like to tell your florist. It’ll save you money on fresh flowers.

View Quoted Comment Haha! Yeah it’s a lot, not even all of it is pictured.

Lol I suspected as much, since it's very much like my pile!

btw, I love your flowers. I'm planning to DIY mine also, but my wedding isn't until May 2020, so I still have lots of time. Your bouquet seems to have so many different things. Did you get everything at once, or did you just start buying bits and pieces of things you liked? I don't have a concrete vision yet of what my bouquet will look like. I just see stuff on Pinterest and go "ooohhh, that's pretty."

Those are gorgeous! Where did you get the flowers, if you don’t mind me asking?

View Quoted Comment Thank you! I bought them at Michaels. They honor Joann Fabrics coupons so I saved 20%. I spent $72, the bouquet was roughly $50 of what I bought.

View Quoted Comment Flowers for the swag and hoops are from Joann’s from a different flower buying trip.

They’re beautiful! Michael’s has a great selection of flowers 💐

View Quoted Comment Thank you! Yes they do!

Wow! These are great, I really like the centerpieces. I am doing DIY centerpieces but not the flower portion of it. I am definitely not as skilled as you haha.

I added in more pink to my bouquet and reworked my swag also. Still need to fix my hoops.

View Quoted Comment Thank you! You’ll be amazed what you can do, I bet your centerpieces will be beautiful! I still need to do my old wood window seating charts. Planning on putting swag on those too.

I am doing something like this too! I wanna do the window panes with the decals for the seating arrangements. I worked at a hardware store for a couple years in the paint department and now I know how to sand and stain them so I will be working on those this fall while it's not too hot out.

View Quoted Comment Are you buying decals? I was planning on just writing names with a chalk marker.

View Quoted Comment I found decals on Etsy that weren’t super expensive. I have nice hand writing but it’s super inconsistent and I have major OCD lol

View Quoted Comment Do you happen to have the name of the Etsy shop? This could save me some time!! Do they write all the names of the guests and table numbers?

View Quoted Comment

They do! They also make other ones. I wanna do a panel for the bridesmaids and grooms man and all that stuff too. Here's the link: Etsy Decals

Awesome! Thank you!!
