DIY brides is it really cheaper?
So I had this idea right, so I said let me do it myself. When I when looking for the iteams I needed I might as well been paying for someone else to provide that specific decorum.
Here's the catch not everything can be done DIY and still be cost effective which is the entire point.
The good thing though is that 99 percent of DIY projects don't cost very much especially if you know where to get the stuff you need.
Tip: try eBay.
Because I'm doing my own bouquet as well as the bridesmaids bouquets and the men boutoneers I needed tons of silk flowers. This is nothing new but I literally ordered dozens of silk flowers for dollars.
1.20 - 3.00 ITS CRAZYYY and it may just work for you as well.
Tip: buy online and in bulk.
Mason jars are all the rave. For 2015 this is like number 1 one the DIY list. They are extremely versatile with an unlimited amount of creative uses.
However, they are quite pricey especially if you'll be having lots of guess.
The more tables you have the more jars you're going to need.
A set of 12 mason jars on Amazon would cost me 14 bucks. That's the same price for maybe 3 jars at a regular department or craft store. This significantly reduces cost.
Tip: sign up for discount at your local craft stores.
