Easier Weddings: Do-It-Yourself Crafty Wedding Cake Details

If you're thinking of great wedding inspiration for the coming spring season, look no further than 100 Layer Cake - one of our favorite wedding blogs. They cover a variety of weddings and feature top wedding vendors, from the best photographers to the best florists. And we also love their do-it-yourself projects. This one is all about how to create your own craft touches to spruce up a wedding cake. Here are some basics to help you get your DIY project started, and some beautiful inspiration photos. Jillian from 100 Layer Cake came up with these super cute cake decorations to share with you all. 

Materials

Gold letters, metallic threat, straws, printed or vintage paper

Project Cost

$15

You could totally whip something like this up, buy a plain cake from Whole Foods or a local bakery, and voila! You have an adorable little centerpiece for your reception.

Of course, we would always recommend buying a cake as gorgeous as the ones made by Nine Cakes, but if that’s not in your budget, you could easily dress up a less expensive option. Or have a family member or gold star bridesmaid do it for you?

Their vendors, projects, weddings, resources, sponsors, and marketplace are hand-picked and thoroughly researched with the hope that every single one is a truly unique addition to both your wedding and your planning process.

I had a friend who did her own wedding cake. It was a large flat cake with white frosting. She put ediblie red, purple and pink flowers on it; long with kiwi, strawberries, and mint leaves all over it in a vine spiral pattern. it was one of the most gorgeous cakes i've ever seen. she got lots of people asking her if she'd do their cake if they ever got married.
