Dazzle Your Guests With Homemade Wedding Favors

By: JD Strato

Weddings are a joyful social occasion but can become an expensive proposition in a hurry. With unique wedding crafts you can introduce a personal sense of touch and keep the cost down as considerably. Here you will find a few ideas for wedding crafts to supply scintillation and creativeness to your wedding day.

A simple starter could be to design and fabricate your own wedding veil. Start with a piece of bridal illusion cut to the proper size. You'll need a headpiece or hat, to hide the comb you will use to hold it to your hair. Large stitches about an inch from the end of the illusion will give it the strength to pull it tightly together. Sew it together with the veil and comb and cover it with the headpiece or hat. Another option is to decorate a simple summer straw hat with ribbons and beads along with some flowers.

You can also put together the flowers and bouquets to save money and add a personal touch. Use wild flowers for an outdoor wedding, to create a more natural setting. Use large clear vases to arrange the flowers in, wrapped with a decorative bow.

Party favors for the invitees are particularly appropriate wedding crafts. Icebox magnets are a basic and well-received favor. A truly nice idea is to create a magnetic picture frame and combine a picture of the couple. You could cut a border out of craft foam in one of the wedding colors, arrange it over the photograph, and paste all onto a cardboard backing. Lay self-adhesive magnet tape on the backside of the cardboard. Grace the front of the frame with aluminum foil heart stickers and a monogram of the couple's family name.

Bows for the ends of the church pews can also make unique yet basic Homemade Wedding Favors. Broad ribbons of velvet are marvellous for autumn and wintertime marriage ceremonies, although satin is more suitable for springtime and summertime wedding events. Scrunch some flat lace in with the ribbons. In the core of the finished bow, supplement some silk flowers and pearl sprays with a hot glue gun.

If you have any culinary talents you may want to give decorating your own cake a try. There are plenty of unique cake decorating accessories and unique cake pans available inexpensively at your local department store to get you started. Cake decorating does take a little bit of skill, so you may want to try a few practice cakes to start with.

Save yourself some money and look at the various ways you can do something different and save some money for your honeymoon at the same time! Be prepared for the time it might take to finish whatever wedding craft project you decide to undertake. You don't want to be rushing trying to finish 150 wedding goody bags the night before your big day. In any case, designing and creating your own wedding favors can add a unique personal touch to your wedding event.
