DIY Bride | Martha Stewart Weddings


Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine, just released their DIY issue this month! So once you are through reading this, you should probably go get your very own copy, if you haven't already! They even have the very first digital version available, for you iPad and Tablet lovers out there! 




I flipped through the pages, scouring for the perfect thing to share with you lovelies. One thing that I absolutely adore about Martha is she walks you through thing step-by-step. It doesn't get any better than that, people! You will never leave her website, or close the pages of her magazines without knowing exactly what to do for your project! 
MarthaStewartWeddings.com  also has a spectacular feature section of DIY customizable printables for everything from favors, to signs, to table numbers...etc. I chose some of my favorites to showcase here! I hope you take the time to take a look at all the great DIY's though! :]

1. Beach Patterned Fresh Fruit Wraps
I had to share this! It is just such a trendy idea! Plus, how could I pass up sharing that beautiful Florida Orange!? The pdf for these cute wraps, is recommended to be printed on Rice Paper. All of the details for this DIY Project can be found here!

2. The "Kiss Invitation"

I remember coming across this in MS magazine once, not too long ago. I also remember being in love with its quirky style and fun elements. If you feel the same, and want to borrow this idea for even a Shower, or Bachelorette party, it is completely customizable! All of the details can again be found here! Trust me it is really that easy!

3. Motif Program Covers
The very first impression your guests have when they arrive at your ceremony is the program that just got handed to them. It is important that they look good, and do not become an afterthought, if you do decide you are having one. This DIY cover is easy to customize, and it gives options for the emblem you can chose. The last step is printing it on whatever cardstock that suits your wedding's theme! Folding and tying it with some lovely ribbon or twine is all you have left to do and Viola! All of the details can be found here for this DIY project!

4. Mini Barrels of Matches, Favors 

his was a Martha Stewart DIY that immediately caught my eye! Matches are still given at weddings, even if they are just at the bar. They are a token that people can almost always find the use for! The labels, and tops for these match barrels are all easily customizable by pattern and initial! It is such a fun way to do the typical matches, and your guests will ADORE them! Just like me! All of the details for this project can be found here! Also, the little barrels can be found at Favors and Flowers!
