One of the other little DIY projects that I really had my heart set on getting done was the idea of having wedding wands for our parade:
I love how festive they look, and guests always look like they’re having fun in pictures with wedding wands in them!
So, I got Sassy Bridesmaid and Fairy Bridesmaid together last week, and in just a couple of hours, and without spending more than ten extra dollars, we were on our way to having fabulous Star Wedding Wands (are you noticing a trend with the quick and dirty DIY going on over here at the Star household?!?).
We started by painting 40 wooden dowels from Michaels to match our wedding colors. We only made 40 because a few people who can’t do the walking are taking cabs instead of participating in the parade, and we know for a fact that many of our more masculine guests won’t be interested in these sissy things.
Then we hot glued (it’s been awhile, folks!) ribbons, silk flowers, sparkles, and anything else that was left over from the favor-mask project to decorate the wands!
All together, they look like this:
Pretty, right?
I can’t wait for our guests to use them as we celebrate our marriage with gusto through the streets of New York City.
How are you re-purposing leftover wedding craft supplies?
