DIY Wedding
Pomanders and masks

Hey!

So I am getting started on the diy front and pics one and two are my first attempt at a black and white pomanders. I think they turned out pretty well. I think I will make a few that are green, black and white (our wedding colours). FYI, I plan to cut the little strings that are sticking out!

As well, I have been super busy making, painting and finally blinging up out 140 masks. The dinning room table is finally free and the smell of paint is out of the place. I knew that this would be a big task... painting them and sealing the paint with a shiny coating. But it was well worth it! I actually ende up sanding the down prior to painting to make them more even but anyway, it was so worth it. I still have 40 to add pearls and/or rhinestones to and then I will add some glitter to some of them, lace to others, handpainted flourishes, etc.

I am trying to make each one unique. The masks areeither green, black or gold.

Let me know what you think! Lots of love!

Blue DIY Wedding Cake Topper
It took me about 2 hour to make but I love it! Paying 100 for a cake topper was not in my budget ...
