Here comes the bride

I know I didn't post hardly any of the projects but I took pictures of it all and will work on getting the projects up now. We have been married for a month now and are settling in to married life. So fun! I am going to start a blog on our DIY projects around the house!

Let's get started. For the ceremony I had 3 little girls and my little brother carry signs that said "here comes the bride."

I found four similarly sized frames at a thrift store and they were $.50-$1 each. I had friends help paint them all in my color (sea foamy bluish).

For the inside I had the husband cut out cardboard that fit perfectly inside the frame (most of them came a just the frame but if your frames have the backing in them, just use that).

Super easy so far!

I played around a lot on how to make the words inside. If your frames can hold a sheet of computer paper I would suggest printing them. I used different scrapbooking paper for the background and painted the words on with the same paint.

If you can print them, cut your pretty paper to fit into the printer and frame and simply create your words in a word processing program.

Finally put all of the pieces together! Place the paper in and then the cardboard. Ta da! Super easy, super cute! They all looked darling carrying those signs.
