Here is what you will need per setting. A setting like this makes quite a statement, so one should be good enough.- Floral pastel wallpaper enough to cover one wall.
- Old photo frames
- A few pretty embellished dupattas/ sarees or pieces of fabric
- A few cute photos of the two of you
- Spray paint in one or two shades
- This is probably the hardest part- covering the wall with wallpaper. You can source it online from various sites. We liked the Marshalls Wallcovering in Blue and Gold for this look, which is available on Pepperfry for Rs 3469. You can buy this online here.
- Up next are the frames that you need- you can take some old photo frames from around the house, and mix them up with a few in interesting shapes and sizes, which can be bought cheap from woodwork shops or online. We like the ones on The Wishing Chair, which are pretty quirky and priced between Rs 500-1000 each.
- If you're getting frames that are already painted or have that wooden effect going for it, then well and good. Otherwise you can spray paint the new or old frames with some handy spray paint, which will cost you about Rs 250-300. Buy it online from Amazon here!
- After this, you will need to do a bit of hardwork. This includes framing one or two cute photos of the two of you, taking the embellished part of sarees or dupattas and framing it or you can also buy embellished laces and then paste them on fabric to frame. You can choose anything you like, and since you're sourcing stuff from home, you won't even have to pay for it. Here's an easy tutorial on how to do it.

- The next thing you need is a floral cushion cover and a cushion. Source it from home if you have it, or buy it online. We like the Birdies cushion cover from Chumbak for this look, which is quirky and eye-grabbing. You can buy it online from their website for Rs 595 here.
- Up next, you can DIY both your initials or your wedding hashtag with beads or buttons on to the cushion directly or on a piece of fabric or get it done from a tailor. This again should not cost you much. Here is a tutorial on how to do it!

- Last, but not the least add a cute chair or a couch from around the house- a neutral colour will work better, and voila! You're all done! All in under Rs 6,000!
