The other day we told you about decorative letters at the wedding, how original way design and mentioned that such letters can be made of various sizes and shapes from any material you like: cardboard, fabric, metal wire, flowers, etc. Today we want to continue the conversation on this topic and show you three-dimensional foam letters.

What are the benefits of styrofoam letters?

1. Light weight. Styrofoam letters can be made as large as your imagination and possibilities allow, and you do not need to think about how to rearrange them from place to place, because polystyrene is a very light material!

And you can also safely hang such letters from the ceiling and not be afraid that they will hurt someone if they suddenly fall down.

2. Volume. Styrofoam is suitable for those who like voluminous rather than flat letters.

3. Moisture resistance. Letters made of paper are also quite light in weight, but they are afraid of water, but with letters made of polystyrene, any unexpected cataclysms like sudden rain or sleet are not terrible (just remember to play it safe with waterproof paint if you paint them).

4. Manufacturing. Styrofoam letters can be made independently.

5. Low price. Compared to letters made from wood or fresh flowers, Styrofoam letters are quite cheap. Moreover, they can be made from the material left after the purchase of household appliances.

6. Long term services. After the wedding, foam plastic letters can serve you for many more years as an element of decor or photo props - you can even rent them to friends, or even give them to friends who decide to play their wedding.

How to make letters from foam with your own hands

In order to make letters from foam with your own hands, you will need the following materials:
- Styrofoam;
- a marker or felt-tip pen;
- a ruler or a straight rail on which you can draw lines;
- a clerical knife (or any other knife suitable for cutting foam);
- sandpaper (not necessary if you paste over with newspapers);
- PVA glue or others (Attention! Glue "Moment" is not suitable for foam!);
- newspaper for pasting;
- any materials for decoration - paint (acrylic is suitable), fabric, colored paper, ribbons, threads, beads, buttons, etc.

The order of work is as follows:
1) Choose a foam of suitable thickness, and in the absence of the desired thickness, glue it from several thin sheets.

2) Using a ruler and a marker, draw the desired letters. At this stage, it is reasonable to use a template, for example, cut out of thick cardboard.

A beautiful bride, a groom beaming with happiness, a best man, elegant bridesmaids, congratulations - for this idyllic picture of cloudless happiness to come true, it takes time, a lot of patience and strength. Wedding decor can be extremely simple and original. You can order decor elements from specialists, or you can handle it on your own.

There are many most different ways give the holiday a unique atmosphere when decorating the hall and the wedding reception itself. Many couples use personal photos, flowers, souvenirs, as well as such an element as wedding letters as decor elements. They can be used both indoors and outdoors. A wonderful romantic mood is created by letters made by the newlyweds themselves, as a symbol of benevolence and good strong relationships in a new family.

Styrofoam letters - easy, simple and reliable!

Letters are easy to make from packaging material from household appliances (polystyrene). Creating letters from foam plastic is an easy process and takes a little time. First you need to make a stencil, use it to transfer the image, and then cut it out with a sharp knife. The entire uneven surface is cleaned with sanding (sandpaper) paper. With its help, it is elementary possible to achieve the necessary forms of letters. Such letters are often decorated with paint. The surface is preliminarily degreased and then covered with 2 layers of paint. Additionally, you can decorate them after the paint has dried. In addition to artificial and fresh flowers, lace, ribbons, large beads are used, which are fixed with rubber glue (superglue “burns” the material). It is worth noting that these accessories can be large, but light enough, and are not afraid of transportation. Therefore, you can safely organize photography outside the city, for example.

Since the newlyweds are in the center of attention in any case, the main thing is to observe the measure and not overload the design of the room too much. You can use three-dimensional letters, but it is hardly worth increasing them to the size of a billboard and hanging all the walls of the banquet hall with them.

Cardboard letters - a flight of fancy

A more time-consuming option is letters made of cardboard. In order for such letters to play with volume, it is necessary to use 2 parts that are glued together with a strip of cardboard (the width of the strip should be 4 cm more than the planned thickness of the letters). A strip of cardboard with folds along the edges is glued to the edge of the 1st blank. Then the second blank is glued. To create solid and high-quality blanks that will hold their shape, they must be placed under a press for a while for gluing. For decoration, you can use various threads, colored paper, beads or shells. Also, monophonic letters, covered with fabric of the original texture or material with a printed pattern, can successfully emphasize the solemn nature of the event.

If the holiday takes place on fresh air, we can limit ourselves to the minimum decorative means. When tables are set under awnings or awnings, bouquets of flowers add romance, while words and letters made of wood can create a spectacular accent in certain areas of the space.

Traditionally wedding color- White. Brings purity and innocence. However, bright contrasting colors are now becoming more and more popular. You can use spray paint to paint letters made of wood, but at the same time preserve the structure of the tree. Such letters will look quite natural in the design of the wedding.

They can be used not only for a photo shoot, but also in the interior of an apartment, which will bring a piece of uniqueness to the design and remain a reminder of beautiful day weddings.

Photographing will become more interesting using letters

To capture the joyful wedding moments, the newlyweds take photos and videos. The use of letters is considered a trend in modern weddings. But in order for the photos to be unforgettable, it is necessary to clearly determine in what style it is necessary to capture the photo or video. Will the names of the newlyweds created from letters be used, or will the bride, who is already in the status of “married”, happily take her husband’s surname and emphasize this moment in the photo frame? Perhaps it will be an exchange for a photo of the initials of each of the spouses? You can come up with variations on this in a large volume.

The intertwined first letters of the names of the bride and groom create a coat of arms new family.
