Pastel colours and handmade details are just some of the elements of this gorgeous style, and here are some ideas on what to do with them:
Gold Sprig Backdrop
For this stunning DIY project you will need only green sprigs, gold spray paint and clippers. Trim the sprigs and leave a few centimeters of stem at the base. Spray them with gold spray paint, one by one, and let them dry. Lay the sprigs out on the arrangement you will use on the wall and line the stems up so they are all parallel. Then use tape or nails to affix them to the wall, and you are good to go!
This decoration idea is simple yet extremely effective, which is why many brides love it so much.
Coffee Cans as Vases
