DIY Decor: Old Hollywood themed Bridal Shower

Below are some decorative ideas for an Old Hollywood themed shower.

1. Feather Poms.  These things are AMAZING.  Very easy to make.  See my previous post for 'How-to' details: http://loveleahlynette.blogspot.com/2014/10/diy-decorative-feather-pom-poms.html




2. Social Media Signs.  All you need is a printer, a picture frame, a glue gun and some trinkets to glue on the side of the frame.  Here, I used 3 small feathers and a plastic rhinestone flower to attach to the frame. 




3. Centerpieces. Vases, Crystals and Roses. Lots of Roses.  If you live in Los Angeles, this part is easy.  Two dozen long stemmed roses for less than $10.00?!?  Who does that?  The LA Flower Mart, Downtown LA, that's who.  If you don't live in LA, try to find a flower mart in your area.  

For the centerpieces, we used glass vases, strings of crystals, a roll of decorative mesh, long stemmed roses and mirror plates.  Cut the leaves off the roses before you arrange them.  Line the vase with the mesh (it doesn't have to be neat). Stick the roses in the middle of the mesh.  Add water.  Then, drape the crystals around the roses and the vase.  Finally, sit the vase on top of a mirror plate. 



 
Enjoy! And, Happy Decorating!
