"Lovebirds" Bridal Shower Theme Centerpieces


I am in charge of the decor for my soon-to-be sister-in-law's bridal shower next week. I was brainstorming and decided to do a "Lovebirds" theme. I am really excited about it! I think it'll be very fun and classic.

So I found the tutorial for the birds here. Hers are a bit more refined than mine, but I have to make a whole bunch and I'm just using scraps from my fabric drawer. Also, she uses interfacing, which makes them stiffer and sturdier.

I sprayed the jars with chalkboard spray paint. Be careful not to get any drips! They don't work well with chalk.

I collected twigs around the apartment complex, and spray painted them to look like birch branches.

To fill the jars I got a $4 bag of landscaping pebbles from Lowe's.

Here's the result!

Using a multi purpose room? Take advantage of the perfectly on-trend CHALKBOARDS :)

I also made this quick little chalkboard with a 2.99 plaque and more chalkboard spray paint.
