Handmade Paper Florals from Dragonfly Expression

Years ago, I saw a wedding featured on television where the bride had an art background and used paper as a primary element in her work. So, when planning her wedding, she decided to incorporate her love of paper throughout the ceremony. From her bouquet, to the centerpieces, to decor, she had everything festooned with her paper creations. It was amazing and I thought, “That’s something I would love to have!”

Well, flash forward to me making handmade Japanese paddle fan programs for a friend’s wedding that reduced me to tears in the process and left me with permanent scars on my hands and my DIY dream went out the door! (Although, the programs did turn out beautifully if I do say so myself.) Fortunately, there are talented people like Chantal of Dragonfly Expression to help with such a handmade vision without the DIY disasters.

With customized styles and colors, there’s almost no end to the options that Chantal could create for a paper-laden scheme. From place card holders to table numbers, centerpieces to bridal bouquets, you can have a complete scheme tailored to your paper-loving specifications. No tissues or band-aids required!

Imeon Design: Paper Paraphernalia Aplenty

My background and training is in printmaking. As a result, I cannot help but be smitten with all things paper! I love the multitude of ways that you can manipulate paper to create anything from high art to charming ephemera. So, to say the least, I loved it when I stumbled upon the paper-tastic offerings of Imeon Design on Etsy. (Full disclosure? I squealed. I can admit to that.) There are so many sweet offerings that would easily and a little enchantment to your wedding decor!
