From playing cards to keys, tea cups to croquet, there are a million ways to add a bit of Alice.
Here are the very best Wonderland accents I have discovered so far!
Isn't this amazing!? It's so easy to DIY too! Cheap vintage style pocket watches can be found on eBay for just a few pounds. Go all Mad Hatter and remove the timepiece (although using a mallet to do so might just be going a step too far...ditto using mustard on it!) and line the inside with velvet. Voila, a very simple but very unique ring box!
Playing Card Bunting
Another project that is so easy and so cheap, but amazingly effective. Simply punch holes into a pack of playing cards, thread string or ribbon through the holes and then tie lengths of patterned or coloured ribbon between each card. This would look gorgeous as a top table swag, too!
Eat Me / Drink Me Tags
No Alice themed Wedding would be complete without these. There are hundreds of variations of these tags, from flags on cocktail sticks and simple tie on tags like these, to drink stirrers and jar labels, which would make a gorgeous addition to any Candy Buffet. Tie tags to teacups, glass stems and stick in cupcakes and on straws in glasses. There are lots of printables available on www.Etsy.co.uk; you can get an entire printable suite including invitations for about twenty pounds.
Wonderland is nothing without a Mad Hatter and a Tea Party, and while I'm sure there will be more than one Hat wearing Crazy at every wedding, you'll need the whole package for authenticity.
These gorgeous Vintage Teaparty Treats can be found at the Not2Shabby Boutique. With the Tea Cup candles as little as £6.50, they would make lovely attendant's gifts or table decorations as the candles can be matched to your colour scheme. The Cake Stands start at an incredibly reasonable £8, and the cupcake candles work out less than £1 each...perfect for favours as they are scummily scented too!
I hope I've provided a little inspiration...and I apologise for leaving my beloved blog abandoned for so long, but with a Wedding coming up in just a few short weeks, this Fairy Godmother has been running low on Fairy Dust by the time the evenings come!
Until Next Time....
A Very Happy Unbirthday To You!
The Enchanted One xoxo
