DIY Project – Bird’s Nest Favors
So sorry about all of the technical difficulties yesterday…what a mess! But, we are back in full force today, with fun DIY projects that will definitely leave you inspired. The first is simple and pretty, a lovely favor for any wedding!
Materials
Mini Bird’s Nests
Jordan Almonds
4-bar Flat Cards in Butter from Paper Source
Hole Punch
Blue Ribbon
Tulle, cut in large squares
Bird Stamp and Thank You Stamp
Brown and Green Ink
Instructions
1. Buy mini bird’s nests from Beau-coup (3 sets of 12 for a total of about $35).
2. Filled them with 5 baby blue jordan almonds to look like robin’s eggs (I got the Almonds off The Knot wedding shop, with regular shipping they are a total of about $20 for two bags or about 200 almonds).
3. Wrap them in tulle (I bought mine at a fabric store, 3 yards at $1.99/yard).
4. Using blue ribbon, (mine was from Paper Source in “bluebell” for about $4 for 10 yards) tie the tulle together.
5. Cut your 4-bar cards into 4, then stamp them with the green birds and brown thank you.
6. Punch a hold in the corner, then tie the ribbon through. Voila!
Simply lovely! Great post.
Thanks for featuring our mini bird's nests. These DIY projects are great!
Love the mini bird's nest idea. The presentation is stunning!
I'm leaning toward having a nature theme for my wedding, and had a rough idea like this in my head. But seeing it all done, with instructions, is perfect! Thank you so much :) It's really beautiful.
