It is not difficult to make your own bridal veil. You will need a length of bridal illusion in the desired length to produce this wedding craft.

Sew the veil on the comb now. Accessorize with a hat or headpiece. You can also embellish a wide-brimmed straw hat with silk flowers, ribbon, and pearls.

Wedding crafts for guests are very fitting. Refrigerator magnets are a simple and popular favor. Making a magnetic photo frame with a picture of the couple is a great idea. Cut a frame from craft foam in one of the wedding colors, lay it over the photo, and glue it all to a cardboard backing. On the reverse of the cardboard, apply self-adhesive magnet tape. Decorate the front of the frame with foil heart stickers and the couple’s last name monogram.
