DIY WEDDING tips to steal

Try these simple ideas for maximum style points

crafty creations

tie lengths of ribbon to chair backs for a colourful streamer effect. Make your own confetti by using a shaped hole punch on coloured paper.

clever cloths

if you need lots of tablecloths, try bed sheets with lace panels on top.

chalk It up

Make your own signs by buying budget frames, using blackboard paint on the ‘picture’ part – then scribble on your chosen wording.

flower feature

Plant trugs with flowers instead of vases for a rustic table centrepiece.

memory lane

Hang a length of twine or ribbon and peg up photos of the bride and groom through the years.

cute keepsake

Cut out shapes from oven-bake clay, stamp guests’ names on, then leave to dry. Place on each table setting.
