Hello, lovelies! It’s time for another roundup, and today I’m not only bringing you some detail candy, but also some fab DIYs to help you incorporate this particular trend/idea into your wedding. I’m personally a big fan of origami and as both an accessible DIY and one that’s flexible enough to look great in a number of different styles of weddings, I can see why it’s become more popular recently. Cranes are, of course, the big one (and they have special meanings for weddings – brides and grooms are supposed to fold 1,000 cranes for luck, since the patience ... |
The art of paper folding- origami can be nothing short of spectacular. While fiddly, the end result can be magical. I love to see paper birds floating in the breeze, paper cranes hanging en mass from blank white walls and paper buds filling bouquets. What a beautiful way to use something so everyday in a completely different and beautiful way.1. Photo by Jenny Ebert Photography via Once Wed 2.

DiorWe're seeing quite a bit of origami technique in the recent designer collections, including bridal. If I'm reading my Italian is correctly, Vogue Sposa is calling the bride in origami, ‘the unpublished chapter of bridal fashion.’ Originated in the east, origami fabric application consists of bending and starching fibers to take unexpected shapes and volumes.
