7 Tips for DIY Rustic Wedding Invitations

1. Buy lots of brown Kraft card to use as the base for the invitations.

2. Put any drawing or calligraphy skills to good use and decorate your invites with lots of little illustrations for an extra personal touch – you could even do an individual drawing for each guest if you have the time!

3. Tie with brown string or twine for a rustic touch and to keep the invites and RSVP cards all together.

4. Make mini bunting for your shabby chic wedding invitations by cutting out small triangles from different coloured fabric swatches. Stick a piece of string or draw a line on your invites and carefully stick the fabric triangles along it with a thin application of glue. This would be great on the outside of a card with a simple stamp of all your wedding info on the inside.

5. Stick a strip of lace or patterned fabric onto your invites to add a vintage touch.

6. Add brown luggage tags to your shabby chic wedding invites and write the name of your guests. Make your own from pieces of card by cutting out rectangle shapes with one pointed end.

7. Don’t worry if your invites look a bit scruffy or dishevelled, that’s the whole idea of shabby chic!
