Post pictures of anything and everything that you've made! I love looking through everyone's projects. It's great inspiration, especially since I'm still in the early stages of wedding planning. So show them off ladies!
We are making a burlap banner to hang up at our reception.
ummmm... I would... but it'd probably take up more room than you want ;) So I'll post a few and say check out my blog for the rest ;)
ring pillow
dragon egg
invites:
oooohhhh... and all but the artwork on the RSVP (which was clipart I merged together) is my own. (Ok, and the logo, the ax and rose... that was two tattoos I redid and merged together, too)
I went a little DIY crazy 0_O....
Invites and tables, bouts and bouquets, corsages, place cards and table names, programs ... etc.
Keep it coming ladies! I need inspiration, and I LOVE looking at everyone's pretties. :)
@Zinzerena: Take up as much room as you want!!! I wouldn't complain.
@mrstj2b: lol, okay! I still gotta take photos of my bouts, though :( and I'm trying to think of everything else I've done! LOL!
one of the bouquets I've done. I still wanna do another, though!!!!
mock-up of the girl's bouquets, to see how the look without a holder (their actual flowers will be in different ribbons, though):
test run for the coasters we're gonna be giving to our wedding party (different artwork that I've done will be used):
Oh wow... I had lots
here goes from beginning to end
Designed from scratch and assembled everything BUT the RSVP card that we had printed via postcards.com
I really just sewed the flower on.. so they'd match my DH shoes =)
The guys bouts
my boquet
along with all the girls bouquets
The programs
The Letters for our Cake Table
Guestbook Pages & Album
The Centerpieces... more like Table Numbers.. settings.. & Vinyl bowls for Guestbook pages & crayons return... and the DJ song request cards at each setting
Our Seating Chart which I didn't get ONE picture of finished =( but here's the idea.... The Records had round "centers" that had the table and guest info
and then a shot of it in the background...it's blurry but you get the idea
Lots of "single" flowers to have along the tables
and last but not least....
The Cardbox
I think that's about it.. lol
@amnystik: Aww :-) thanks so much! It's been a lot of hard work, but I don't think I've ever been more proud of something in my life!
Wow so many good DIY projects here! I'm def bookmarking this, so I can add to it when I have my own :)
Okay, so here goes....
Burlap Runners
Burlap banners
Painted letters of our initials for the church doors
Hangers for the girls. The butterfly hangers are for the younger girls, and the BM hangers have yet to be finished. Going to add decorative stickers to them this week and spray glue.
And finally, our centerpieces...
And still have so much more to do. Getting down to the wire!!!
@mrstj2b: thank you! I PM'ed you the link, but here it is for everyone else, too! hopefully it makes sense! If anyone has questions, just shoot me a PM!

And YES, that IS MY TUTORIAL. I did it for May Arts for a contest. and I didn't win, so :P
Oh my goodness, LOVE your bouquets!
OP:
lots of my DIYs can be found here and here, though I will post a few pictures because I like to share :P
Our invitations (which I designed all by myself)
the sign for our card box (will be hung on twine or ribbon)
I still have to make up a bunch of wooden directional signs with the dremel, but my partner took it to work today haha. I am also hoping to get some tissue poms done, but it has been tricky tracking down tissue paper locally that isn't in baby blue, white or blush pink :\
Here are mine ...
Bought the invitation suite from Target but added some additional enclosure pages and a belly band with a pearl to personalize it:
Button Boutonnieres:
Pomanders (the ivory ones were made with artificial mums, the pink ones are tissue paper and the grapevine balls, I just wove some delicate flowers into them):
Vintage birdcage for cards and Guest Book Sign
"We Do" letters for the cake table (they don't look as nice against the concrete floor):
Gallon jars with 6" pillar candles to line the aisle (I have 28 of these):
I won't post all the artwork I've done, but I've also done little "spellbooks" that have mixed-drink recipes in it, the front and back cover for our guestbook that is actually a novel we wrote (yep, totally DIY and will be printed at Lulu for just our purchase 'cause otherwise....it's laughable, lol). I'm also doing a "wedding certificate" that will be hung up 'cause the official one is, well, BORING!!!!! and not something we'd EVER hang up! LOL!

mrstj2b - Thanks!
Wow! There are a lot of very talented ladies on here!
@pinkb: I love all your light pink decor! My colors are light, blush pink and navy blue, so I am definitely inspired by all your pink!
@missmouse29: Thanks so much :-) I'm so happy with them! I wanted something I could keep forever :-)
I made my toss bouquet--my real bouquet will be a bit bigger, but the same.
@Miss Longcoat: Those are really pretty! I wish I could arrange flowers like that. I'm the worst floral arranger! Is that a brooch in the middle? Pretty!
Yup, it's a vintage rhinestone brooch. I got real touch roses and gerbera daisies, cut them all to the same length, and just gathered them in my hand. You should give it a shot! Thank you for the kind words!
My diy save the dates :) Sorry if these pics come out huge!
