diy framed table number

Here we go!  Let the DIY projects commence.  Here’s my first entry to the DIY contest over at Ruffled.  I decided to try out a style of table number for the wedding reception!  I did a little variation on my framed birdie, and got an old encyclopedia from Goodwill.  Then I cut out numbers and letters, and mounted them on a page from the encyclopedia.  (For this project, I used the page that defines “love.”  Awwwww…)  I framed them in a little black pre-matted frame, and voila!

I’m thinking that for our purposes, it might be a little too sleek and formal for the vibe that I envision at our reception.  But I sure do love it, and it was a ridiculous piece of cake to make!

Also, don’t forget to check in every so often over at my 30 by 30 list — I’m already making progress!  And if you’ve got ideas, I’m still pondering over what number 30 should be.
