Mother’s Day Cards to Make or Buy. {DIY Wedding Tips} Burlap, Linen & Tulle Wreath. If you missed it Sunday, I shared all my wedding pictures & details from our sweet day!! If you did get a chance to see it, you may have noticed quite a few little projects scattered throughout the decor!! I mentioned that a ton of it came from my own house but a lot of things were made specially for the big day :) And if you're no stranger to Tattered & Inked, you know that I love a good wreath. So much so that I think I ended up with about five wreaths at the wedding. This one topped them all though but be warned, it was quite a bit of work!!
If you hate cutting, cutting, cutting & then gluing, gluing, gluing, you probably won't be friends with this wreath :) But it's gorgeous as all get-out so doesn't that make it worth it? Seriously yummy with all those textures!!! I knew early on that I wanted to incorporate a lot of whites & burlap into the wedding decor.

She’s super creative and her DIYs are projects that I would actually make. You know, there are lots of DIYs that I’d pin, but never make. Today’s fab project from Ashley is on my to-do list for this weekend, I’m so in love. Enjoy! I love the idea of marquee letters, and according to Pinterest, so does everyone else. Materials needed: Large cardboard letter (JoAnn’s is the best place to find one) X-acto Knife String Lights Pencil Paint (optional) Instructions: 1 | Cut along the seam of your cardboard letter, only on one side. 2 | Twist the glass casings from the strand of lights, and lay them out where you’d like them placed on the front side of the letter, and then trace the smallest part of each. 3 | Cut an asterisk shape in each circle, which will allow you to push the bulbs right through into place.
Now your letter is ready to plug in and display! Ps. DIY Home Art | Fantastic Cleaners. DIY Sliding Knot Bracelet. After visiting the Mediterranean twice this past year, I’ve come to embrace the ubiquity that is the evil eye symbol and have since integrated it into the jewelry repertoire. Today I’ll be showing you how to make a sliding knot bracelet with an evil eye charm, which is thought to protect against negative energy and evil powers. And whether you’re superstitious or not, this is a super simple method which can be applied to any connector or charm! You’ll need: Thread 4 inches of cord through one side of the charm. Fold an inch of the tip down over the parallel cords. Thread the tip through the opening of the left loop. Push the coil to the right and pull the tip until the knot is tight. Thread the other end of the cord through the opposite side of the charm and create the same zig zag.
Coil the tip around all the cords three times and thread the tip through the loop. Push the coil to the right and pull the tip until the knot is tight. Melt the ends with a lighter.
