DIY Scrabble Bridesmaid Invitations

From the blogger: "For my daughter's recent wedding, she wanted to have handmade bridesmaid and maid of honor invitations. She liked the idea of using Scrabble tiles inside a shadow box. I went around all the thrift shops looking for old games but only found one. However, as you all know, you will run out of certain letters very quickly, so I found some wooden Scrabble tiles online. This is a sweet and unique way to ask your friends to be part of your special day."

Instructions

  1. Remove the back of the shadowbox. Using your tiles, plan the layout you want. It looks nice if you can overlap some of the words to make it look like a crossword.

  2. Once you have your layout, take a photo of it. This will help when gluing the tiles back together.

  3. To get all your tiles to line up, find a straight surface and lay your words facedown along it.

  4. Put a strip or two of double-sided tape across the back of the tiles to keep them straight.

  5. Finally, glue the words to the back of your shadowbox, and put the box back together again.
