return of Wedding Wednesday posts are happening because I feel like a bride again. We’ve spent the last two weeks working on projects, collecting white porcelain platters and writing on chalkboards. My sister’s wedding is in 2 days. AH! And we’re so excited! Now I wouldn’t call be sister’s wedding full fledged DIY… but we did have a few projects that we needed to get done. We have hired my sweet friend and incredibly talented floral designer, Amanda Veronee to make Joe and Emily’s wedding really come together with color! And so we just needed to piece together some accents to carry the theme and add some unique elements to the day.

As we were working in my garage…. breathing in way too many spray paint fumes… I realized that there were several key tools that every DIY bride should probably have! These few items made our crafting a breeze!! so here are the must haves and little sneak peek of Joe and Emy’s big day! :

1. Powered Staple Gun & Extra Hot Glue Gun! 

2. AWESOME Colored Spray Paint! We found this at Michael’s and it’s the perfect shade of Coral! 3. Chalkboard Paint and Chalkboard PENS! These pens have become my new best friends! I’ve been writing on Chalkboards like it’s my job!  And this is just a little peek at Joe and Emy’s Navy and Coral Barn wedding!! So fun! It’s going to be a beautiful day! Praying for no rain!!!
