After all, even the most chic wedding dress will look bad if the ring pillow or the groom's boutonniere do not harmonize with it. We offer you a hint-list that will help you understand what important details cannot be ignored and how you can make wedding accessories with your own hands.
Album for wishes

Provide a sufficient number of sheets so that everyone can write. The pocket, which can be in the album, is great for storing dried petals of the wedding bouquet, postcards and telegrams. At the wedding banquet, the wish album can be placed on a separate table, placing a pen there too. If you are familiar with the basics of scrapbooking and cardmaking, then making a congratulatory album will give you a lot of pleasure from the process and satisfaction from the result. After all, a wedding album is not just a scrapbooking masterpiece, but also a reason to implement the most creative ideas or retro trends.
Chest for money
On the thorny issue of giving gifts for helpa wonderful accessory will come - a chest for money. It will make the process of gifting the newlyweds stylish and elegant, the newlyweds will not have to stand with envelopes in their hands or with a tray filled with these envelopes. Such a useful, original thing will become a wonderful decoration of the wedding and will be useful to the best man. And it is very easy to make a wedding chest for money. The first option is very simple. For this you will need an ordinary standard box from a set of glasses, where six pieces are placed. Such a box is almost a ready-made chest, which just needs to be ennobled, giving it a solemn wedding look and making a slot in the lid for money. Paste the box inside and outside with beautiful textured wallpaper (vinyl, for example) of a suitable color and decorate the chest with lace, ribbons, beads and artificial flowers. The second option is more complicated. For this you will need a shoe box with an overhead lid. Take the lid and cut out the middle of its top, stepping back from each edge by three to four centimeters. Then we build up the lid, giving it the shape of a dome. It is most convenient to do this from corrugated cardboard, which can be easily bent, but will not wrinkle. But even ordinary Whatman paper will do. First, cut out a rectangle equal in width to the box, and in length to the height of the lid dome. In the middle of the rectangle, make a slit for dropping money and make the sides of the lid. Draw two parts in the shape of a figure with straight lower corners and a rounded top. The width of the rectangular base should be equal to the width of the side of the box. Along the entire rounded side, make an allowance of two to three centimeters. Cut the allowance, bend it at a right angle and glue the sides to the first part, bending it into a dome. Now put the resulting dome on the lid of the box and glue them tightly. The lid of the chest is almost ready. It remains to decorate the entire chest. Cover it with satin fabric, gluing it on. We cover the joints with beautiful braid or cord, and finally we decorate the entire chest using lace and guipure, satin ribbons and tulle, artificial pearls and flowers.
Wedding glasses
It is absolutely impossible to get by at a wedding withoutwedding glasses. This accessory will be kept by lovers throughout their entire life together. Wedding glasses attract the attention of guests at the banquet and in the wedding palace, they will remain in your wedding photos. Therefore, you need to approach the issue of their selection and design responsibly. Beautifully decorated glasses of witnesses will add zest to your celebration.
- Creative glasses
For them you will need white and black tape,satin or guipure ribbons of the same color. We will make a glass for the groom from black tape, and for the bride from white. And it is also quite easy to do. We wrap the glass (turn by turn) with tape. We leave only the round base of the stem and the top (three to four centimeters) of the glass free of tape. We decorate the bride's glass with artificial pearls and lace. Somewhere in the middle of the stem we put on a skirt made of guipure or tulle. We decorate the groom's black glass with rhinestones or beads imitating buttons on a jacket, and a bow tie made of satin ribbon.
- Classic glasses
In the classic version, the glasses are at the base of the bowl(on the very top of the stem) are decorated with artificial or live flowers or even mini-bouquets. You can simply wrap the stems of the glasses with beautiful tape and place tulle bows or white organza flowers on them. Artificial butterflies, feathers, floral mesh and flowers made of satin ribbons, rhinestones and pearls - all this will be an excellent material for decorating wedding glasses. And if you are good at drawing, then paint the glasses with contour or stained glass paint, turning them from simple ones into wedding ones.
Guest accessories
Young people spend most of their time inbanquet hall. Therefore, it is necessary to provide for all the moments so that the banquet goes off without a hitch. Accessories for seating guests will help them avoid confusion and fuss, taking pre-assigned seats. At the entrance, hang a plan that will schematically depict the arrangement of tables, their numbers, as well as the names of the guests. On the tables, place signs with numbers in advance, as well as cards with the names of the guests. The latter will help guests in getting to know each other and communicating. If you have a basic knowledge of computer graphics, can draw well, or are familiar with such a type of handicraft as cardmaking, then exclusive seating cards will be a pleasant surprise for guests. With such small but pleasant "little things" you will show guests that you care and think about them. And the main fashionable feature in wedding accessories today has become bonbonnieres - boxes with symbolic gifts for guests. Giving handmade bonbonnieres is generally considered good form. They can be made of fabric or cardboard. Place the candies you want to give as gifts on scraps of beautiful fabric measuring approximately 25 by 25 centimeters, lift the corners of the scraps up and tie them with a satin ribbon. You will get a bonbonniere-bag. With boxes, it is even easier. It is enough to find several different templates for such boxes, choose the one you like the most and stock up on colored cardboard. Glue, scissors and decorative elements will help you make fashionable bonbonnieres with your own hands. And how happy your guests will be!

Therefore, decorating this wedding accessory is of great importance. How can you decorate wedding candles with your own hands? Here, you will not need any special skills - only imagination and creativity. As in the case of wedding glasses, candles can be "dressed up" with the bride and groom. Just take thick cylindrical candles for this, which you can also decorate with braid, beads, ribbons and tulle. By the way, making candles and glasses in the same style is a very good idea. Well, all sorts of hearts, lace, artificial pearls, gold cord, artificial flowers, bows, guipure and other wedding decorations will turn ordinary nondescript stearin candles into an indispensable wedding accessory.
