Original caption

A little something for every person sitting at our wedding table 🦪🤍 I ordered oyster shells, painted them, added gold around the edges, and personalized each one with our guests’ names. They’ll double as place cards and a little keepsake for everyone to take home. It’s the tiny details that make a wedding feel like ours. 🤍. #weddingdiy #diywedding #keepsakes #weddinginspiration #diybride

I'm making something for each person at our wedding

Transcript

I get married Saturday and I want to make little keepsakes for everybody. My idea is I ordered these off Amazon. I got two boxes of these. I'm gonna paint the inside of them white, outline it in gold, Mod Podge the whole thing just to seal it. And I'm gonna put their name on the inside. Put them on each person's plate. Let's make them. I got my gold paint and my white. I'm gonna say it might just be easier just to put the paint specifically in it. So I'm gonna paint the interior white. Now I'm gonna edge the outside with gold. I'm gonna play around with this and see how I like it. I have a pencil, but I can only find a mechanical pencil, but I'm gonna try with a permanent marker first. Or I will try with paint and see if I like it. Sometimes painting small letters doesn't work. So we'll try this first. I think it's cute. I like it. But I'm also gonna try with the paint and see if I like it outlined with the paint better. This will dry clear. So we're gonna take this and just put it over top. I did these in sections. But they're so cute. I like them. I'm doing my next ones right now. I'm so happy I decided to do this.
