DIY Fabric Flower Containers

DIY Wedding

fabric-flower-container-1

These fabric covered flower containers are super easy to make and very inexpensive. By going to IKEA and getting a container for $1, then adding fabric, you have an instant decor piece for your wedding. Pick the fabric, twine or ribbon, and flowers based on your wedding colors to make them completely custom. They are perfect for hanging on the chairs along the aisle.

Supplies: Bygel IKEA containers (only $1 each), spray mount, fabric, twine, scissors, and flowers.

Step 1: Cut a piece of fabric 14″ x 9″

Step 2: Using the spray mount, go outside and spray the entire IKEA container. Make sure to spray a little on the inside rim as well.

Step 3. Take your fabric and tightly wrap it around your container. Make sure to press the fabric firmly against the container and smooth out creases and air bubbles. Tuck the fabric at the top inside the container. Then cut off any excess in the back to make a smooth line.

Step 4: Add twine or ribbon by tying it around the “hook” on the back of the container.

Step 5: Add flowers!

This is such a cute idea and probably really helps save money.

We have used some similar ideas to spruce up an otherwise dull office.
