diy Regrests, Mishaps

I created my save the date on my phone and it printed blurry. ☹️ I sent them out anyway.


I also created my wedding invites on the same app from my phone...

There was definitely a learning curve to the app so I spent a LOT of time redoing them from a desktop so they would print clear (they did, thank goodness).

I did my STDs on Shutterfly and from the computer it looked blurry, so I just had one card made and sent to me to make sure it wasn't actually blurry. I know you already got yours done, but just FYI for any other brides. I think it is a good idea to get one sample one before buying in bulk and didn't think about it until right before I ordered them. So glad the invitations weren't blurry!

Uhhhhh my regret is that I haven’t started yet!

I like to keep busy so I don't really regret any of my diy decisions. Lol I think the only thing I'm slightly regretting is deciding to cut the bottoms off of wine bottles to go with my centerpieces. Finding just the right way and right tools to do it so they don't crack is not easy!

I thought I could spray paint wood numbers I bought for the centerpieces and they turned out horrendous! Thankfully I was able to exchange it for acrylic paint and they look much better! Oddly enough the spray paint somehow worked as a primer?

That's a happy accident! They look great.

That seems intimidating. I like the idea but I'm not that crafty.

That's good advice!

It would have never even occurred to me to use an app for that.

Thanks. It was supposed to be a bright gold like the similar outcome but the wood just soaked it right up.
