One of my favorite DIY wedding trends lately is the whole Japanese Washi Tape trend.  This cute, happy tape comes in just about every color, print and style you can think of! Here are just a few styles I found with a quick search and you can find it at your local Hobby Lobby and Michael’s.

Here are a few of my favorite  DIY Washi Tape Wedding Ideas that I found on Pinterest! I’m super excited to transform some of these ideas to my own home!

1. Washi Tape & Painted Glass Bottles for Centerpieces.  Just start collecting bottles and glass jars, spray paint to your liking, then add washi tape in whatever color matches your wedding….and fill with coordinating flowers. I LOVE this idea for a spring wedding. Something about it just says fresh and spring!

Its funny how an idea comes about. For me…I kind of think in long strings…where I could be talking about going to the beach one minute…then fast forward a few seconds and then all of a sudden I am convincing my husband that we have to start thinking about where we will retire someday….and he used to wonder how I could get from A to Q in 4.5 seconds…now he is used to it. (yay for being married for almost 9 years! and PS>>>I love being married to my man! )….

Ok…back to the story! See????!!  I got a call a few months ago from my new friend/old acquaintance, Jenny Keller of Jenny Cookies. We have known of each other since I was about 18, but really started to inspire/chat/plan a few years ago when I got to shoot her family’s portraits. This one is the second of our fun sessions. With this one…she threw an idea out…and I got so excited…its really how our stylized shoots began. We had so much fun! She is the idea girl…I am the gasper. If you don’t know me…you might wonder what a gasper is….well…you say something, show me something or do something that I love and I instinctively gasp. Much to my husband’s annoyance….But i literally can’t help it! So…if its your wedding day or family portrait day and I gasp at you. Its a good thing!

S0…I got this call from Jenny….and she had baked all day and wanted to see if I could come over and shoot her Easter Table…it was amazing. Our kids ran around while we played….it was a blast! I kept thinking…if we just threw a bride in there, it would be perfect for a stylized shoot to send to some of those big wedding blogs like Style Me Pretty, Ruffled, 100 Layer Cake, LaBelle bride….you get the idea. I threw the idea at her…and her wheels started turning instantly!

Fast forward a few weeks and she made some calls and I made some calls…and we ended up at the amazing Swan’s Trail Farm for a day of once again playing (I LOVE MY JOB!!!) and shooting. This time we had an amazing dress and veil from From The Gown Up, Make-Up and Styling with Embellish by Terri Fields and the uber cool and vintage flowers from Stadium Flowers. We all were super excited and it all came together beautifully! Thanks to everyone for jumping on board and making this so much fun!
