Everyone wants their wedding day to be memorable; every minute enjoyed by the bride and groom, their families and friends. Yet the day passes so quickly, and it is often in the preparation and anticipation that much of the pleasure lies.
This book details wonderful painted items which will enrich the time leading up to the wedding and create treasured heirlooms to be admired and used for years to come. After all, a wedding is a time for indulgence!
Instructions are included for wedding invitations, cake stand and knife, chocolate bowls, rose petal bowls, pew decorations, wedding slippers and even the bridal train, as well as storage boxes for mementoes and clothing, and luggage. And much more ...
All step-by-step details are written for the beginner painter but should you have painting skills then the book will provide a host of new ideas for you to try.
Have a joyous painted wedding!
