All of the cards and other things everyone has made are so pretty! I have been thinking of doing similar things, and now I've got so many new ideas floating up around in my noodle. Thanks all you talented people!

YAY I can finally join in!!!!

Here are the STD's my sister and I made last night. Nothing too fancy but I love them!

And we made a bride tank for me to wear! I am going to make my sisters each one since they're the only BMs in the bridal party!

What do you think? Not bad for my first two DIY wedding projects.

I love the talking mickey. That is a brilliant idea. I'd love to do that but dont know anywhere in England where you could do it. Did you actually out the speechboxes in Mickey?

Aw, thanks Tonya! I'm actually going to open an Etsy store sometime this year. And your STD is so cute!

Betsy - I love that idea! I may do it.

 

[CinderelliT]

Good idea Mikkel!

Besty - your flowers look just like the real ones! Excellent job!

More DIY projects: my hair combs. I don't know if I will use these but I like the idea of something sparkly in my hair other than crystals on pins (but I may go that route instead - who knows?). I think they're each about 1.5" wide, with crystals and pearls on them. Here in my PJ.

These are so cute!! I really want to make them they are way to expensive to buy. How did you do it. Ive heard some people used the cricut is that what u used?

No; I think that would have been way easier! I bought one of those giant protractors from an office store; they fold in the middle and make a full 360 degree circle. I also bought a compass. I made the center from using the giant protractor, then used the compass and a ruler to find a good spot for the ears. For the centers, I used a ruler to measure in a half inch all around. Once I had one set completed, I traced the others and cut them out by hand. PITA!

Printing them was horrible. I did each part in words, in little blocks, then traced the silver Mickey head on white paper and pasted the wording inside. Once I had a clean copy, I used this to copy onto the silver paper, and cut around the outline.

I did the ribbion like you would ribbion wrap a boquet and used a silver paint pen on the very end so you wouldn't see the ruler underneath. DH hot glued the buttons and bowties. I hand drew all of the "W" monograms on the back of each fan and DH hot glued the pieces together around the stick.

Overall, these were a huge PITA to make. I'm sure there was an easier way to do them, but I wanted them a certain way and that was what I came up with. I was happy with the end result; but glad I didn't have to make a lot of them! HTH! Feel free to PM me if you have any more questions!
