Avoid a DIY catastrophe!!!


When it comes to planning for an event. Whether it's a wedding, birthday, shower or just a casual get together, you must be mindful of your time and abilities. Some projects at a glance, may seem minute, then once you take on that task.... BOOM!!

There are many things you can do yourself or with a little help from family and friends. For
example: creating favors, centerpieces/ show pieces, decorations and place cards. A favor is a small gift to say thank you for attending and remember our event. You can get a 9 pack of mini candy jars from Joann Fabric and Craft for only $9.99, fill them with mini candies like MM's or Jelly Beans (theme colors) which are about $3- $5 per bag at Walmart, wrap a single satin ribbon around the neck of the jar 3/8" W- 18ft (any color) for $1.49 also at Joann's and just to add a little more personality, place a label with your event info on the jar top. Labels are available online for large quantities or at a office store for a smaller guest list and you can design them online for free and print them in your own home.

So, no matter what your budget, it is important to make a list of
priorities. By knowing there are many inexpensive avenues you can take for your
wedding, you can still have the wedding of your dreams without
breaking the bank.
