I am getting married June 2006 and am making hand held fans for the guests since it is an outdoor wedding. The fans are made from old wallpaper sample books (free at local wallpaper stores), tied with ribbon to match wedding colors and have a flower attached to cover the staples and of course the popsicle stick.

My matron of honor loved the fans so much I decided to make hers and my junior brides bouquets the same. However I am adding astring of beads, babys breath, a little tulle and a pink rose since that is the wedding flower. This looks very elegant and is cheap. Just remember when picking out the wallpaper sample from the book it is of the color in your wedding, or go with whites, off white or beige paper.


Since they will have fan bouquets, I have decided to make my bouquet the same way, perhaps with more roses and tulle.

Thanks for the ideas! They sound great.
