Planning our wedding on a budget means getting thrifty and crafty. I am learning to recycle and upcycle products that are either in our home or at a thrift store. When I moved to Lincoln, IL last summer one of the things that surprised me most was the number of thrift stores here in town. We have 9 thrift stores for 15,000 people. You can drive from one end of town to the other in 10 minutes... in which time you will pass several of those thrift stores within a 2 block radius. It's Crazy and Wonderful!
My centerpieces at my wedding are going to be glass jars filled with wildflowers. Kind of like these...
I'm not sure what the flowers are going to be... or if we are going to decorate the jars. BUT, I do know that I will not spend above $0.50 for a jar. Most the jars are either thrifted mason jars like the 2 I found today...
OR recycled food containers that are in my fridge or pantry. Things like sauce and jam jars are perfect.
