Make the Place Cards
Beschreibung
Wenn ihr eine alte Verpackung mit Aufdruck recyclen möchtet oder euch die Grundfarbe der Schachtel zu dunkel ist, solltet ihr sie erst weiß grundieren, da das Papier leicht transparent ist. Ansonsten könnt ihr das Papier direkt aufbringen.
Reißt es dafür zunächst in handliche Stücke. Die Größe der Stücke entscheidet darüber, wie viel vom ursprünglichen Muster später zu sehen sein wird. Wenn ihr das Muster des Papiers komplett übernehmen möchtet, müsst ihr die Stücke so groß machen, dass sie mindestens so groß sind wie die Flächen, die ihr bekleben möchtet.
Falls ihr eine Serviette verwendet, vergesst nicht, nur die oberste, bedruckte Lage zu verwenden.
Nun streicht ihr die Pappschachtel dünn mit Kleber ein.
Make the Table Numbers
Description
You can also make table numbers in a Pink Kisses® arrangement to go with the cute Pink Kisses® place cards. The plants make the whole thing look great without taking up too much space on the table, so everybody at a table can easily see and talk to each other.
To start, place plastic sheeting in a box, tin or similar container and fill with fresh soil. Before you plant the Pink Kisses®, tie the flowers together with some fishing line. Be careful not to pull the string too tightly so as not to damage the flowers. Place the Pink Kisses® around the edge of the container. If you like, you can use the Pink Kisses® in the centre that you cut the flowers off of for the place cards. When the Pink Kisses® have all moved, it is best to water them first. You can now place dried grasses, ears of corn or similar around the Pink Kisses®. Just see what suits the style of the rest of your wedding decorations.
Attach the two wooden sticks to the left and right of the wire ring with hot glue. Be careful not to burn your fingers and allow to dry before continuing. Attach a cut flower to the top of each wooden stick and glue it in place with florist’s tape. Now follow the same procedure as for the place cards: write the table number on a white paper circle, punch holes in it and tie it to the wire ring with some thread. Now all you have to do is stick it in the middle of your flower arrangement and your table number is ready!
