Mary's DIY Bridal Wish List Display

[kkcomp2]

Hi Everyone,
I wanted to show you how I did my Bridal Wish List Display. My Director was very impressed!

I went to Michaels Craft store and bought a BIG Champange glass, put a piece of foam block ( the kind used for silk flowers) in the bottom with a bit of Tack to hold it in place. Then I took a Garter and removed the elastic from it and placed it around the rim of the glass.

The Brides wish list are the pictures of the products she wanted glued to the dolies. Then I used 6' and 12' bamboo scewers and I taped the dolies to the stick. Then I just made a fower arrangement out of the sticks. Once that was done I used decorative stone and flower petals around the foam to hide the foam and "Viola"

I hope I can the picture of it to upload.
Mary

Very nice!

IF I ever get organized enough that I am not flying by the seat of my pants to prepare for one of these - I'd like to do something like this.....but I'm guessing 4 hours before the show is not a good time to start!

This is a very cute idea Mary. However, most of my brides want everything in the book!! I would have to use a whiskey barrel instead of a champange glass...

Thanks for sharing the photo - that's where we get ideas...

If there was too many items it would be cute to make multiple with different price categories...

i.e. $0 - $20, $21 - $40, $40 & Up

I feel that separating the items into price categories REALLY helps!!! For the shower I just did, I had a hundred Red Flower Die Cuts, one for each item she wanted. In the middle of each flower was a return mailing address lable that had the item#, the price and the page it was on.
I pinned the flowers onto a display trifold board,
one fold was up to $10, middle large section was 10.25- $25 and the last was everything higher.
Guest kinda knew their budget, so it was easy for some of them to just go "pick" a flower and then they'd put the push pins into the ring pillow. I really want to post these pics, but can't yet, changed computers and camera isnt on new one, long story...when I can post pics I will.
