Tissue paper, craft knife, hot glue gun, you are in business!   These are some of the most easiest crafts that end up looking like yu put a ton of effort into them, but, the time and effort amount to a fun day in Art Class at school.   From paper brides to feathery butterflies to Huge Poms and Roses and hydrangea garlands to faerie light  flowers from coffee filters no less!  I love the bonbon hearts that look like these huge boxes of valentine candy to  tissue paper hearts hung from the ceiling so gorgeous this is the first one I'm going to make.   The stencil cutouts are so Pennsylvania Dutch looking, so intricate they look like a professional must have spent days or hurs on them, yet with the guides and instructions you will find her they are no more difficult to create than the valentine hearts we all cut out in gradeschool and covered our school windows with.  Amazing!   the invitations, the memory book, the favors for folks to take home with them fill decorated bags or create elaborate looking crackers lie you see at Christmas sometimes.  I really like the fun confetti heart shaped boxes and the confetti itself heart shaped, so cute.   There is such an easy to make china teacup and white rose table decoration in here that is just gorgeous and so simple to make.   I have always loved doing crafts and I especially like  things that are easy and turn out beautiful from simple supplies.   This is that book!   Table decorations and how to make your own invitations will save folks a bundle of cash when you want an amazing looking wedding but don't have a caviar budget.      Of course, I also use these ideas to create things for other occasions and the knowledge you glean here will bring joy in so many different venues once you learn how to make them.  What a blessing!   I recommend it to brides, to crafters to anyone wanting to make beautiful things without paying humongeous prices to do so.   Something that is fun to do will gain anyone putting the time in a lot of praise.
