Sometimes you just have to do it yourself when it comes to creating your wedding decor. By making it yourself, you are not diminishing any of the quality. In fact, you are adding your own special touch to your wedding. How cool is it to say that you made this by yourself? How to Create an Elegant Place Card Display? Let’s me show you how I created this place card display.

I bought this wooden frame from Micheal’s Craft Store for around $6-7 dollars. I fell in love with the style of the frame and the design. It looks very fancy.

I used gold paint and applied it to the entire frame except for the back of it.

Once dry, turn it over so that the exposed wood is showing.

Now it is time to take out the ribbon. I put the ribbon against the frame. I made sure to leave enough room for the place cards to hang down.

I used my staple gun to make the ribbon stay on the frame. For me, I personally think that the staple gun is better so you don’t risk having the glue not be strong enough.

I used the scissors to cut off any extra ribbon.

Repeat the process four times.

Now all you have to do is pin the place cards onto the ribbon with a clothespin.

Reuse it for notes and memos too!

    How many place cards were you able to add to your pretty frame.....looks like about a dozen? Did you make multiple frames?

    I actually used this exact frame to mosaic glass and I will finish it off with adding a mirror or maybe something else. It has a lot of uses.
