DIY Engagement Party


One of my favorite activities is to host and entertain. A couple weeks ago we hosted an engagement party for our lovely friends. I got inspiration from different blogs online. Most of what you see in the pictures are handmade, and surprisingly not hard to make.



  • Banner: I made the banner using scrapbook paper with vintage designs. I think this banner would look much better using fabric, but paper is much cheaper. The letters were made using a cutter machine. 
  • Couple silhouette: I drew the couple on black poster paper and then cut it with scissors. 
  • Pompoms: there are plenty of "how to make" pompoms on youtube, check it out if you like them. The pompoms are made from tissue paper. 
  • Cake topper: the nest ring is from Michael's store for .99 cents. The love birds are made from modeling clay.




I had so much fun planing this party that I wanted to post it here. I hope you find it helpful.
