Acrylic paints are the small bottles of craft paint that are sold in bottles of 2 ounces in a variety of colors. They can sometimes be purchased very inexpensively. Tempera paint will work if you can’t get acrylic paints. Another idea is to spray paint them, especially if you want to use a metallic color.

When paint is dry, tie the hearts together with raffia. To do this, cut four 10 inch lengths of raffia. Thread the raffia down into a hole and climb through the hole in the heart following so as to make side by side. The raffia should be tied in a neat bow at the top of the array. Click equally among the other hearts so that all the small raffia bows are on top. Adjust the raffia ends if necessary.

With each of the outer holes, Screw one of the tapes. Pull the ribbon through until the ends are uniform. Thread the large grain on both ends and slide it up near the heart. Adjust the ends of the decorative tape audiles. Repeat on the other side to complete the wooden handicraft. Now hang the string of hearts wherever desired for a cheerful decoration. A wooden craft as it makes a nice gift for someone special.

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Another fun activity sure to be entertaining is to create a “guess” silent photo; area. Here’s how it works: before the wedding, someone close to the bride and groom collects pictures of the bride and groom at various stages in life. The photos should represent the bride and groom doing things, not Christmas or her first birthday cake. That is to say the photos should include some action, but should’t is obvious in the table what has occurred or where the person is.

As a silent auction, people will come along and watch the pictures, then take a silent guess as to what the photos show. They can write their guess on a piece of paper and put it in a numbered basket that corresponds to the number in the picture. Reading these guesses during the reception is sure to be entertaining and amusing. The bride or groom can provide the real answers. This is particularly an activity in a relatively small wedding of family fun where participants know the bride and groom very well.

If you want to provide an area for guests to have their photos taken but aren’t’t excited about the “night” of course prom; idea, how about having a photo corners available somewhere in the corridor or facility welcome. Here, the wedding photographer will take candid shots of wedding guests. They might be couples, but could also be entire families, friends who had a good time, or the boyfriend who was continuing his shoulders the best man. What the pictures end up being, provide a fun, “Let it all hang out” area for wedding guests and a surprise for the bride and groom. Since it will probably be busy with all the details of the reception and have the time of their lives, they might appreciate knowing their guests had a pretty good time too, as evidenced in the photos.
