DIY Decor for Crafty Brides

The Center is a blank canvas space that allows for all the creativity in the world! That means you can decorate this place any way you see fit. Have you ever considered creating your own wedding decor? We know, as if you don't already have enough to think about! Still, if you find DIY projects relaxing and have a few helping hands, you might enjoy some of these do-it-yourself ideas.

1) Have an old window and some glass paint? This DIY project will leave your guests' creative sides and mouths watering!

2) Picture frames + Paper + Sticky Numbers = adorable table numbers that your guests sitting at each table can sign with a paint pen. We have 30 tables at The Center, so get crafting!

3) With a paper photography backdrop and large markers/paintbrushes, you and your fiance can scribble the lyrics to your favorite song, or your vows. There's a whole room in The Center, out of the way of guests, that you could use to set up this type of backdrop.  It makes for beautifully personal photos!




4) Get together with your fiance and create a short, fill-in-the-blank story for each of your guests. We've even had a bride and groom put together a clever Madlib for their guests! At the end of the night, have a designated groomsmen/bridesmaid gather them and put them into a binder for a booklet of memories you can read through later!

5) With a little string, a little patience, and a pack of colored paper, you could create these gorgeous flower poms for your wedding/reception. They would look gorgeous hanging from the ceiling of The Center! Click here for a step-by-step guide to making these paper decorations. Thanks to The Frugal Girls for this amazing tutorial!
