    I just ask because today I am tackling the DIY Bride cufflinks that are 1/3rd of our Groomsmen gifts. If I screw them up we will have to buy them really quick because I percrastinated us out of another option with the weddig in 2 weeks.

    So I wanted to see what you are affraid to tackle so I don't feel so bad!

    I didn't do a lot of DIY because I was afraid of it!

    LOL I know there are a few things I wanted to do that I decided not to when it came time to do them because of that!

    I was totally freaked about assembling and addressing our invites...but they're coming out really fabulous!  Sometimes you just have to jump in :)

    I jumped in and now they are cureing so in 24hrs we will know if I did it right! Crossing all fingers and toes that I mixed the resin right. I think they look awesome and they came out muuuuch cheaper than if we had bought them! on to craft #4 for today!

    I had times I had to postpone working on my chuppah (wedding canopy), because I was completely discouraged that I could ever get it to work.  However, I started very early, so even after the delays it was done well ahead of time:

    My veil... something I wanted to DIY since the beginning, but so much pressure not to mess up! I initially wanted to do a satin trim, but now I think I'll just leave a plain edge since there is much less that can go wrong, then.

    I've been procrastinating on diy flowers from Costco. I'm afraid they won't turn out nice!
