Let me rephrase that, only the cute photos of us from when we were younger. Mr. Buck was always cute...but I had my days back when I was a pre-teen. Then again, who didn't?
I also wanted to include photos of us from the past ten years. I was going mad trying to figure out a proper way to do all of this. While one day when browsing a Home Goods store in Roseville, CA, I passed by something that called out to me. It literally was singing out my name and glowing.
I'm sure nobody else in the store was seeing what I was seeing. I knew instantly though that this would be perfect for what I wanted to do with a collage. It was a large white cork board for only $20. Not just any cork board though, a pretty one that resembled a large picture frame.
I bought a pack of small straight pins with a rounded black tip to use to pin the pictures to the cork board. It was quite difficult narrowing down all of the photos I wanted to use. However, I decided it would be best to do two rows of us when we were young and three rows of us together from the past ten years.
I still need to play around with the placement of the photos, and there is a chance by the time the wedding rolls around that some of these photos will be swapped out. For the most part though, this is exactly what I had envisioned. We can set this up on an easel near the welcome table for people to look at as they arrive.
I also might add a bow somewhere on the white part, just to jazz it up a bit.
While I was at it, I decided to buy two of these cork boards while they still had them in stock. The other cork board I am going to use for the seating chart. That way everything stays all matchy-matchy.
What do you think of my cork board photo collage? How do you plan to display photos at your wedding?
