So now the wedding is over...and all those decorations you spent months on are just sitting there...what to do, what to do!
Being an "enviroment" lover, I don't like throwing things away to just sit in a landfill for the rest of our lives. I try to reuse, repurpose, upcycle, etc. as many things as I can. I took many of my decorations and reused them in our home decor. What a great feeling knowing that all the time I put into these decorations won't be in vain and will now be a part of my home decor. I will be reminded of our day each time I see these items around the house.
1.) church door decor

now decorates 2 square selves in our bedroom.
2.) birdcage for cards: this was a horrible hunter green color when I bought it from the Salvation Army. With a little white spray and two cute little lovebirds from the Dollar Tree, it quickly became a super cute card holder!

I'm so glad I was able to reuse, repurpose, etc. some of our decorations. Now I just need to figure out what to do with photo pew decor...any ideas?
