A wonderful and inexpensive way to preserve some treasures from your wedding day is to make your own Wedding Keepsakes Frame. It’s very simple, and all you need is a little creativity!
Supplies:
Flowers from your wedding day
Leftover invitation from your wedding
Ribbon or bow from your bouquet
Picture frame – any size, color, and style you desire
Acid free paper – white
1 Sheet Acid free paper – your choice of color and size to fit frame
1 small can of Spray Adhesive (preferably acid free)
Aqua Net hairspray
Take your fresh flowers and greenery from your bouquet and/or boutonnière and place on a sheet of white acid free paper evenly spaced apart. Place another piece of white acid free paper over the top and place a heavy book top. Let stand untouched for approximately 2 weeks.
After a few weeks, take the book off and lift up the top sheet of the paper very carefully. Your flowers and greenery should be pressed and dried. Be very careful with them, they will fall apart easily. Lightly spray a little bit of Aqua Net brand hairspray over top to help keep from falling apart.
Draw a sketch of what you envision your frame to look like. Use almost anything you want from your wedding day such as your invitation, ribbons, flowers, etc. Using your spray adhesive, lightly spray the inside glass of your picture frame where you’d like the flowers placed and gently place them there. You do have a few seconds to readjust before the adhesive dries so work quickly. Use the spray adhesive to place any other items you desire in your frame. Attach the back of the frame and you’re done! Simple, inexpensive and uniquely your own!
