My brain is about to explode.

[Amylee]

I am not creative at all...so when trying to think of good DIY ideas, my brain gets over loaded.

These are some things I need help with.


(My wedding theme is princess. Not like Disney princess, but more classic princess. My colors are light purple, light blue, and white.)

First, do you know any good DYI websites for centerpieces, invites, ect? All the ones I have checked out aren't any help.

Second, I found an idea for a table cloth that I LOVE but I can't find it now! It was a regular table cloth but they had glued fake flower pedals on it. I could probably do it without the picture and directions but I would rather have some help.

Third, I can't remember what else I need help with..so I'll post again if I remember. haha

If you have any ideas about the decor, please let me know!

Thanks.

if you go into the photo section here, there's a thread w/pictures of ppls centerpieces... and the DIY section has a lot of threads about them too...

i don't know of any good websites tho...

do you have any idea what you want to do? that may help narrow down the search a little bit...

[Amylee]

I was thinking something with candles and flower pedals and fake diamonds.

Haha. Other then that, I have no clue.

well if u want simple DIY, get a 3 wick candle... sprinkle the flower petals n diamonds around it n voila instant centerpiece...

however others on here my have more "creative" ideas than i ;)

I think your theme sounds great and I think you can do a lot with the colors you chose. You could do a lot by changing up the colors of things like your table cloth, it could be light blue. And your candles can be light purple, and have the white be the little diamonds and petals scattered around the table.

Good luck and don't forget to breathe!!

Saw this and totally thought of you! I like how gorgeous it is, but still very simple and completely elegant. AND easy for DIY.. You could also easily add some diamonds or petals around the candles to soften it up a little.

You can alternated the ribbons from table to table - with the white roses (or any other flower) and white candles and then using the light purple and light blue ribbons...

And

do-it-yourself-weddings.com is great!

Amylee - Have you gotten aything for the wedding figured out? That way we can see them and maybe try to match the items you are looking for to them.

a couple of good DYI websites are Martha Stuart weddings, and anything googled mind you
i'd also recommend customized labels just because i think they look snazzy

http://www.labelsonthefly.com/wedding-labels.html
they have some nice designs there
also, if you are at all Adobe Photoshop savy you could try to design your own labels or invites. i'm designing my own, but that's because i'm a graphic designer lol
