Corn Hole Boards

My Uncle made these boards for my cousin and very generously gave them to us-saving Damon some time-you know I was going to have him make these from scratch.

-He couldn't get out of painting them though :)

I ordered the bean bag sacks off of Etsy

Chalk-boarding a Mirror

So chalk-boarding a mirror or glass couldn't be easier.

Clean the surface and be sure to tape up the sides and spray away.

The spray paint I used was: Krylon, 12 OZ, Black Chalkboard Spray Paint.

We used the three chalkboards to do our menu, welcome sign, and a sign for down at the ceremony.

The teacher/bridesmaid was given the special privilege of writing the signs!

I have managed to collect a TON of hankies, but for the life of me could not figure out the way to best display them. We tried a wooden crate, a basket, a tray-you name it. They all looked stupid and really didn't display all the beautiful patterns and detailed fabric and embroidery. After some discussion and another 12:30 am epiphony I had the idea of putting them on one of our shutters. It turned out awesome. We simply put tacks through a strand of lace and hung the hankies by itty bitty clothes pins.

*MY hankie came in handy-seeing that I couldn't keep it together walking down the aisle. :)

You'll have to wait for the wedding photos to see all of it come together.

Programs

After my shower, three of my bridesmaids stayed to help make my programs.

Etsy Details

As many know-Our wedding was definitely a hand made one. Most made by myself, Damon, mothers, bridesmaids, aunts, friends, and of course ETSY. Here are some of our Etsy details.
