Is your wedding looming and you’ve got that “not so crafty” feeling? Maybe you’re all thumbs when it comes to diy projects or perhaps you’ve just lost your wedding craft mojo. Chin up, my friend! The DIY Bride: 40 Fun Projects for Your One-of-a-Kind Wedding is the cure for what ails you. And I’m giving it away for free. That’s right. I’m giving one fabulous DIY Bride reader a copy of the book. Read More…
After about 18 months since I was offered the contract, my first DIY Bride book, The DIY Bride: 40 Fun Projects For Your Ultimate One-of-a-Kind Wedding, is about to be released. It’ll start shipping on/around January 01 from most of the online shops and should be available very soon at a bookseller near you.
In honor of the launch I’m throwing a “12 Days of the Book Launch” celebration here, at the blog. Each day, now through January 01, I’ll share a new piece of do-it-yourself wedding goodness with you. Get sneak peeks of the book contents, view some book-inspired projects, and win an autographed copy of the book. What better way to get your crafty 2008 off to a great start!
Cheers,
Khris
The utterly wonderful Ann, a DIY Bride, has graciously shared her lovely DIY guest book project with us. Originally inspired by a Martha project, Ann has developed a simplified version that costs about $8.00 to make.
Directions after the jump.
One of my favorite craft projects is coming up with favor and gift packaging. (I especially love the holidays just because I can make and wrap boxes. It’s sick, I know.)
Finding nice favor packaging that’s not generic and that doesn’t cost more than the gift itself can be the Holy Grail of wedding favors, can’t it?
Well, dear readers, I have an easy-yet-beautiful favor packaging that won’t break the bank.
