Happy Friday! Fall is finally here and we can’t wait to celebrate, hopefully with some cooler weather and fun decor that is as fabulous as these chevron pumpkins.

I am about to hop on a flight to Chicago for the weekend but want to leave you with something super awesome before I go — Remember this fabulously detailed vineyard wedding?! Well, today the bride, Jessica, is back to tell us how she and her hubby crafted these incredible DIY invites…Do you think you could do this? Here is the scoop:
Invitation supplies:
Natural Cream Linen card stock 80# – cut to 4 ½ x 6 ½ (used for backing)
Natural Cream Linen card stock 80# – cut to 4 ¾ x 3 ½ (used for RSVP and direction cards)
4 Bar Kraft Brown Recycled 3 ⅝ x 5 ⅛ (RSVP envelope)
A7 Himalaya Kraft Brown Recycled Pocket Folder (invitation pocket cards)
A-7 Kraft Brown Recycled 5 ¼ x 7 ¼ (main envelope)
4×6 matte photo paper
double-sided tape
paper cutter
ink jet printer
4. Cut your ribbon in about 20 inch strips. Thread your circle monogram on the ribbon. Set aside.
TIP: We found matte photo paper worked the best with our printer ink.
2. Using your paper cutter, cut your card stock to 4 ¾ x 3 ½ for the RSVP and direction cards.
The day of your wedding is undoubtedly one of the most exciting days of your life. It can also be one of the most hectic. Putting together a wedding day survival kit can prove to be a lifesaver – whether it is for yourself or a pal – here are our top ten day-of must haves:
Tide To Go, Deodorant, Nail Polish (clear and the color the bride is wearing!), Tissues, Breath Mints, Fashion Tape, Sewing Kit, Band-Aids, Bobby Pins and Pain Killer.
Is there anything that you would add?
I hope that you all enjoyed the long weekend! After a healthy dose of of sun (and sunscreen!), BBQ, and rest, I am ready to tackle this week — and boy-oh-boy do I have a ton of “to-do” items on my list, including a few fun DIY projects!
If you are looking for any DIY projects yourself, and want to add some notable details to your wedding, then be sure to check out The Wedding Chicks’ templates – they are the best!
If you are up for a little DIY project, then order a stamp for your save the date or invite return address. Not only is stamping fun, you will also get to keep the stamp and use in your new married life! I love designs by Sweet Papery, Primele and Expressionery (available at The Dandelion Patch).
