The best part about running a craft blog is seeing what happens when people take an idea and make it their own. As fun as it is for me to create things, it’s far more rewarding to see others make those things in their own special way. Sadly, I hardly ever get to see the outcome. With that in mind, you can imagine how thrilling it was to see these images pop up in my inbox.
I mean…
Aren’t these stunning?
Stephanie, the bride, incorporated my cherry blossom coffee filter flowers into her Washington DC wedding. She used manzanita branches (Amazon) grounded in silver buckets (Ikea) filled with playground sand (Home Depot). Set inside a very swanky restaurant, they add just the right touch of color and festiveness. And, honestly, it’s Washington DC – what flower could be more appropriate than cherry blossoms?!
Seriously, y’all. She even made a photo backdrop to make her cute friends and family look even cuter. Look at that cuteness.
LOOK AT IT.
Stephanie, I am so delighted you were able to weave your creative talents into your special day (and if my tutorial helped in the process, even better!). Thank you so much for sharing this with me. Congratulations on your big day!
Those are beautiful centerpieces – simple but elegant. Lovely.
Your awesomeness is spreading!
These are beautiful! What a georgeous wedding!
Wow, doesn’t this make you So Happy! See how much of an impact you have on other people’s lives?
Well, YOU get the credit on this one Ann, as YOU came up with the ice ago make cherry blossoms! 🙂
I think you should go to DC this year to see the Cherry Blossoms! You might not be able to next year.
I’m hoping to soon! I have to check with John’s schedule — but it’s definetly on the list!
