DIY Ideas... That you don't have to do yourself

There are so many great DIY decorations that look spectacular, make a colorful impact, and are easy on the budget.  But these fun ideas all take time and resources and sometimes with all of the other wedding planning, there just isn't  time to create these spectacular looks.  Avant Garden Floral would love to help.  We enjoy creating everything from favors to decorations, which allows you to have the DIY look, without having to spend every evening on the living room floor with a glue stick and a pile of paper. 

Strings of hearts or butterflies made of newspaper, old book pages, or even hymnal pages drape beautifully over tables or look great hung from ceilings or windows.  These can be painted different colors or made from just about any material in tons of shapes.

We love these colorful tissue paper and tulle puff flowers.  These are so versatile, they can be pinned on curtains to make a colorful backdrop for cake tables or picture spots, hung from the ceiling, used to dress up your reception tables, or just tucked here and there for color.

Banners and signs make areas of your venue stand out.  Perfect for the guest book table, cake table, or picture spot.


Centerpieces can be created using lots of wonderful paper and inexpensive vases.  Here's one we spotted in Lincoln at a University event made by a group of very talented sorority ladies.  Can't wait to make one of my own.

The ideas are endless, give us a call we would love to discuss any project from favors to decor.
