“Attempting to do some wedding crafts and Rose is absolutely cracking up at herself in this mirror,” Stacey wrote in her Instagram stories. She said: “So I’m trying to use things we already have to make bits for the wedding instead of buying new things. “I’m making a welcome sign from our mirror & old fake flowers, then I can reuse the flowers after and put the mirror back."
Explaining how she did it, Stacey continued: “So I just glued some fake flowers around the edge. Glue gun glue will just peel off. Then I bought a couple of labels from my sister @label.lady1 – and that’s it welcome sign complete.”

Stacey then shared a photo of the finished sign which read: “Welcome to the wedding of Stacey & Joe forever.” She added: “It’s so hard to get a picture of it because it’s a mirror, but it’s so pretty in real life – I’m so pleased with it.”
The 32-year-old is due all set to transform the 2.5 acres of garden around her house into the perfect wedding venue, and has even created special pergola aisle she will walk down.

“We are on the last part now, the aisle - and my sister just put a load of candles in my kitchen jars at the bottom where we are going to stand and I'm crying.”
