DIY Goes Glam

As Charli mentioned, it’s bridal fashion week, ladies, and we’ve been on the hunt for all things new, hot, and inspiring. Today I have a cool DIY idea (or four) to share with all you glamour girls out there. Want to upgrade the glitz factor at your wedding without going over the top? Without an A-list budget you can’t just drape your wedding details in stunning diamonds, but you can buy loose crystals to achieve the same sparkling effect.

A little skeptical about crystal-encrusted details? So were we – at first. But before you channel bitter memories of your Bedazzler (Though that sparkly pink jean jacket did look pretty awesome back then!) take a look at the astounding amount of DIY crystal ideas on create-your-style.com. This website is run by K. Gottfried, Inc., which sells loose crystals to brides and other vendors, as well as provides a plethora of unique ideas on how to up the bling at your wedding using crystals and beads.

DIY projects like these are true budget savers. A florist could charge two to three times the price to add similar detailing to a bouquet or centerpiece. And, the final products are elegant and chic too. (See above!) We love it all, from single crystals sprinkled throughout your bouquet to make it pop, to monograms with star power. Check out K. Gottfried Inc.’s abundant selection of crystals in every color for inspiration, then get creative ladies!
