Cute Maps 50% off


I'd just like to mention our partner site www.cutemaps.co.uk have just launched and are opening with 50% off for the next two months. Their hand drawn custom made maps are a super cute and impressive way to enthuse your guests. DIY Flower blog followers get 20% outside the promotional period with code DFBG1009, but with their current promotion that means you can bag 100 standard postcards with your custom made design for £92.50 including design fee. Bargain. Why not use them as your wedding invites instead!

DIY Flower Bud Placecard Holders

Absolutely adore these DIY placecard holders! A more cost effective alternative to vases would be mini bottles available in large packs from craft suppliers and an alternative to roses would be Chrysanthemums as you get approx 6 flowers to each stem therefore an average bunch would get you 36 placecard holders!

Beautiful Bouquets


If you're not sure where to start when it comes to your style palette, but you do know what flowers you like, then look to them for inspiration. This beautiful and simple diy bouquet made up from our Wedding in a Box No.5 # 'Bit of Country' would work perfectly with a rustic theme filled with rich or pale greens, pinks and browns; with a pure daisy theme or a understated feminine theme with a pale colour palette.

Here's a couple more pics for inspiration
