My DIY Harry Potter confetti **PICS**

Alejandra, on May 4, 2014 at 5:15 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 50

As some of you know, we are including HP elements in our wedding. Little, subtle details that may not be obvious to others but mean a lot to us. (We ordered FH's Deathly Hallows socks last night!)

Today I've been working on heart shaped confetti out of book #1. Not from my personal book that I read, but rather an old copy I found at the thrift store for $1. It was falling apart. I got an inexpensive hole puncher from Joann's with a 50% off coupon. Voila! Easy DIY Smiley smile

We will use them on the welcome table, cake table and our sweetheart table. Still not sure if I want them on all the tables although one book will make way more than enough.

I have seen these on Etsy but they are more expensive and with the simplicity of the project, I decided to do it myself Smiley smile

    Haha MissMadeline, I will not lie, it was hard to do! I read the entire first chapter before I could bring myself to make the first punch lol AND I was selective about which pages I used bc there are parts that I would not ever be able to destroy lol

    @Koch Bride, we used HP stamps for our invites and rsvp envelopes (those were a HUGE hit! Some guests didn't want to send back the envelope we provided so they could keep the stamp lol). Also, our ring bearer will carry one of the hard cover books instead of a pillow, our cake topper is the word "Always", we will have a table numbered 9 3/4, FH is wearing socks with the Deathly Hallows symbol on them, etc.

    I ordered a necklace that has the Ravenclaw diadem tiara as a charm. It's an eagle with a blue sapphire in the center. If it arrives on time, it will be my something blue Smiley smile

    Oh my god it sounds gorgeous! Love it all!

    FH got me golden snitch earrings that I love. You should hide a snitch somewhere!
