Paper Lanterns DIY Wedding Wednesday

post from The Beginning of Forever on 18 January 2012 04:13:08 PM. © The Beginning of Forever

Paper Lanterns are a very simple DIY project great for centre pieces at your bridal shower, engagement party, or even your wedding. Another great way to use these lanterns would be to line your wedding runway or aisle so it glows romantically as you (the bride) walk down.

What you will need:

Well I will allow you to be more clever than me and use heavy card stock. You want it to be bendable and foldable, but able to stand up right without holding it.

I will let you decide how large or small you would like it. Keep in mind you want it to be able to bend/curve around a glass jar (or large deep set candle holder)

You?ll also need scissors or an X-acto knife, tape, and a tea light candle.

Let?s get started:

Measure the paper length you need by bending/curving around your jar (candle holder). Be sure that there is enough space at each end so that you can overlap and tape. Cut your card stock if necessary to make it the appropriate length.
Take your card stock paper and fold in half (horizontally top to bottom).
Open fold and lay card stock flat. (Tip place a scarp card board piece underneath so you don?t scratch surface.) Measure or eyeball lines about 1/2 ? 1 inch long. Mark lines to cut. You wan to leave at least an inch at each end and about 2-3 inches at the top and bottom of the card stock. So your lines should be somewhere in the middle of the card stock.
Cut along the lines. You can do it flat with an X-acto knife or fold again on horizontal and cut with scissors.
Once your lines are cut through bend/curve the paper so that it overlaps the other end. Tape.
Place your tea light candle in jar/candle holder if your haven?t already and light. Now put lantern over the jar/candle holder. If the bends don?t show like image above push down slightly.
Now sit back and enjoy the warm glow. In the image above I used Christmas trees, which is great for a winter wedding. But you can use all kinds of colours and patterns to match your wedding or wedding party theme. Get creative.

vrai mariage du mercredi - real french wedding
wednesday

post from parisian party on 18 January 2012 04:08:26 PM. © parisian party

Weddings in France have had a complete design revolution since I first started planning weddings here in Paris “way back when”. At the time, French weddings were pretty traditional, and DIY weddings- at least in the “Martha Stewart Omnimedia” sense- had yet to catch on. But catch on they have. For more than a year [...]

Jenni wanted to be married under giant trees so when she and Steve came across Orcutt Ranch in West Hills, California, they decided it was their ideal location! It was a classic wedding in shades of purple with rustic touches of burlap and natural twine. A fun detail that Jenni included throughout their wedding was buttons! Buttons were used everywhere ...
