DIY PLACE CARD HOLDERS

It's my 30th birthday today! I'll be spending the day with my husband, and I can't wait to celebrate with the rest of my family and friends this weekend. :) I am blessed and thankful to have people in my life who care, love and support me. Nicholas and I have been working nonstop preparing for this weekend. My grandparents are in town, and his folks are coming in from El Paso. I can't wait to see everyone! 

Here is a little DIY project I did this past Sunday.

A list of the following items you'll be needing.

  • Wine Corks
  • A knife
  • Metallic spray paint
  • Paper

First, boil corks for 10 mins. Boiling will help soften them to prevent any crumbling.

Cut off the bottoms to achieve a flat base.

Next, cut a slight straight line across the cork. 

Let them sit and dry for about 30 mins. 

Use cardboard or paper to catch excess spray paint.

Spray two coats.

Let spray paint dry for 30 mins.

Display place cards! 

Let me know if you try this simple DIY project.
