DIY: Guestbook idea

(community article)

DIY: Guestbook idea article photo

I have decided to do something really different for the guest book! We are going to have guests sign a wine bottle cork (we are getting married in 'wine country')! 

This is how I will have the table set up: I will have a large glass bowl with the "blank" corks and a sign describing what to do, also several markers lying there. After the guest signs the cork, they will place it in the tall glass cylinder marked "Guests". Then, after the wedding we can use the cylinder to display the corks as home decor, instead of having the book sit in a box in my closet!

Also, on the table, I will have these letters spelling our last name arranged in front of the guest book. I got them at Hobby Lobby, and they were solid black, so I painted the raised scrolls with my green color. 

You can see how the scrolls are raised in this pic:

I LOVE this idea! Where did you find the jar that you put the corks in? We are going to Napa Valley for part of our honeymoon and I think this would be perfect for our wedding!
