It's the Wedding season and nothing says 'love' like a bit of homemade craft.

Create the wedding of your dreams with these simple and special handmade decoration ideas for your big day.




1. DOILY BUNTING
Why not collect old doilies or pick some up from your local charity shop and sew a quick and simple handmade crocheted bunting. If you want them in other colours simply dye the doilies whatever colour to fit your theme. A lovely way to recycle those vintage treasures.

A bit of ribbon and a few sprigs of lavender has never looked so stunning.

This simple idea can be used for church pew decorations, plate arrangements or adorable favours.
3. DIY WEDDING CAKE TOPPER
Just with twine and 5 minutes you can create your own cake topper to say anything with just a few twists and turns. How about your new surname, 'Just Married' or 'Love'?

4. PLACE NAME CARDS

These adorable rustic name cards are so quick a easy. All you need is a set of alphabet letter stamps, card, glue and brown string to create this cute table accessory.

5. CENTREPIECE ARRANGEMENTS

Save some jars, wine and beer bottles and accessorise with sting and lace to make the cutest centre table arrangement and complete with your favourite flowers. You can always use wood cuttings to write table numbers on or use as a tray arrangement.

6. PERSONALISED WEDDING PROGRAM
Take a trip to your local pound shop and grab some paper doilies, lollipop sticks and a roll of brown paper to create these handy wedding programs for your ushers to give to quests on arrival.

Nothing more simple (and cost effective) that a large piece of card cut in the shape of a polaroid and some fancy handwriting to create your own handmade photo booth!
