Bridesmaids' Dress Hangers
I had some hangers left from when I purchased mine, so I decided to make hangers for my girls, too. I spray painted them chocolate to match my wedding colours, then free-handed the initials in loose rhinestones that I had from my cake server project (see below for rhinestone specifications & where I got them). I affixed them with E6000 glue. Overall an easy, affordable project.

Bridesmaids' Wine Glasses
Cake Serving Set
_I picked up this serving set
at Crate & Barrel and am so excited that it's great quality
(especially for the low price!) My 16ss, hotfix
rhinestones are from eBay seller island*girl*crystal - you can see her shop
by clicking here here.
I got a lot of 720 light aquamarine and a
lot of 720 crystal clear and it took 6 days to receive them. I had more than enough to complete the project, and used E6000 glue to affix them to the plastic. The glue holds extremely well- it's like I bought the set with the rhinestones attached- they don't budge a bit!

Centerpieces (Reception)
I ordered 30 purple real touch calla lilies from Save On Crafts. I also ordered 36 glass cylinder vases (12 each of heights 10.5 inches, 7.5 inches, and 6 inches), 144 glass votive candle holders (2.5 inches tall), 36 10-hour burn ivory floating candles, 72 ivory 10-hour burn votive candles, and 72 10-hour burn light blue candles from eBay seller quickcandles. I'm still deciding whether or not I want to add anything to the smaller vases. We will be buying glass aqua beads for the bottoms of the vases.

This project is still in progress, but it is simply four 8x10 photo frames connected with L-brackets, a padded fabric "lid" on top, and a Lazy Susan underneath so it spins to display your pictures. I had to sand my frames and paint them brown (they were finished with a black and silver crackle paint), but once I finished you would never guess that I didn't buy them that colour. To complete this project, I need to find a blue fabric & some cute embellishments to finish the top.
