An easy DIY Flower Girl sign for the DIY bride.
A friend of my sister's came to me with an idea: She wanted her flower girl to carry a wooden sign down the aisle, BUT she also wanted the flower girl to carry a sign into the reception. "Can we do a reversible flower girl sign," she asked. "Absolutely," I said.

What a brilliant idea, right? Because you don't want the sign to say the same thing on the way down the aisle that it does on the way into the reception.

We decided on the phrase, "Daddy, Here comes mommy." for the sign that the flower girl would display on the way down the aisle (the bride and groom already had children together, but this phrase can be changed to fit the couple). And for the reverse side, it read, "Finally, Now let's party!" This is also customizable for the couple.

The sign was a big hit at the wedding, and a great prop for photos!

You don't need any fancy cutting materials either--I'm going to show you how you can make this sign with your printer at home and a paint brush!
