Wedding Shadow Box

I found a really pretty white shadow box at TJ Maxx over the weekend. I thought this would be a great way to display sentimental items from our wedding. So, here's what I put together yesterday.



I included a wedding invitation and an envelope with the amazing calligraphy, my garter, a rose from Kevin's boutonniere, cocktail napkins, drink stirrers, matches, the reception menu, and even a box from the favors. I think it came out pretty nicely. I can't wait to hang this up. At the moment, I'm thinking of doing a gallery wall in our bedroom with this at the center and pictures of us around it. I'm really excited to be able to display our invitation and other wedding items, without them having to be stuffed away in a scrapbook somewhere.

  1. Beautiful! I made one, too a while back....with that SAME box! Great minds think alike. I've been meaning to blog about it, but I didn't want the whole world to know my full name (on the invitation), and I'm not photo-savvy enough to know how to blur it out - haha!

  2. It turned out very nice! I'd like to make one too but I'm just not sure where to display it. Maybe on a shelf in our Study?
