Our latest DIY project has the added benefit that a really useful (some might say essential) piece of equipment is a Toblerone box! And while the contents of the box isn’t required, enjoying the chocolate is a definite reward for your hard work making wedding DIY projects.
If you’re looking for unique place setting ideas, combine function and florals with our air dry clay, dried flower, place cards.
Easy to make using air dry clay (we chose the terracotta colour), simply add a hole in the top of the place card to hold your own posy of dried/faux flowers. Don’t forget to add the name of each guest and you’ve got unique place cards for your wedding or event!
Leave to dry following the instructions on the clay packet (it usually takes around 24/48 hours to fully harden)
These place cards can be made well in advance so one less, last minute DIY to worry about on the run up to the wedding!
