What Materials Are Everyone Using for DIY? 9 Popular Materials and Supplies for Handmade Objects ♡

"And Object" is Cute ♡

Many brides are likely to prepare various accessories for their pre-wedding photoshoots.

One accessory that you should definitely add to your list is the "And Object" ♡

The "And Object" is, as the name suggests, an object shaped like "&". By holding it together, you can capture a photo that represents "the bond between the bride and groom" ♩

It seems that many brides-to-be design and make their own And Objects ♡

This time, we will introduce materials for DIY And Objects. Brides who want to try their hand at DIY should definitely check this out＊

And Object Design ① Artificial Flowers & Dried Flowers

The first design we will introduce is decorated with artificial flowers and dried flowers ♡ It looks natural and very cute ♩

It seems that many people attach flowers to a simple wooden And Object sold at 3coins or online using a glue gun.

However, the & objects sold at stores like home goods stores tend to be small. If you want to make a larger size, it's recommended to create a base from thick styrene board or cardboard by yourself ♩

A vibrant rainbow-colored And Object is also wonderful ♡

Even with the same flowers, the atmosphere changes completely depending on the type of flowers used＊

It’s sure to be a great accent in your pre-wedding photos!

And Object Design ② Moss

A classic design is to tear green moss into pieces and attach it to the surface ♡

If it's a natural wedding, it can be used not only for pre-wedding photos but also for venue decorations＊

Attaching small alphabet wood chips or artificial flowers on top of the moss adds a cute touch ♩

And Object Design ③ Plywood

If you use a laser cutter, you can cut the shape of an ampersand from plywood ♡ The addition of a star mark is adorable!

Brides who want to challenge themselves with serious DIY should inquire at workshops where they can borrow a laser cutter＊
