Love it! Your DIY amaze me…

Mrs. Spider, would you mind sharing your DIY details on how to make your program & menu card (like alyson asked)? Gracias!
What font did you use on your invite? Do you happen to have a close-up pic of it?

I love the apple idea too! I’m also using them as my placecard holders but they’re in green. I got mine from http://www.waxwizard.com.
Can anyone suggest a good place to get the tags for cheap or how you made them yourself? I might make them myself….Did you have to cut all of them out or did you get a cut-out stamp or something?

Here is my post about the apple candles: http://www.weddingbee.com/2006/07/31/perfect-pair/

Unfortunately, I made those teeny tiny tags myself. Designed my own leaf shape using Adobe Illustrator, printed out a million on cardstock then cute each one out with tiny manicure scissors. Curled each one with a pencil then tacked them into the wax apple with a tiny pin.

I will post a new entry tonight with pictures of each painstaking step. I bought baskets, shredded packs of green paper and nestled the apples in them. My freaking reception hall however decided to throw away ALL my efforts and just placed them on the table. I was sooo sad. Anyhow, more later with pics!

Also, more tutorials re: petal cones, menus, and programs. With all the other DIY bees here, I had no idea my stuff was gonna be good enough =)

alas my pets, you must wait until this weekend. my DIY photos are on a backup harddrive that Mr. Spider must tinker with to release my step by step photos. sorry for the delay!
