If you're a bride planning her late summer or fall wedding and are looking for a unique take on a dessert bar, we have the perfect DIY for you! We recently styled an outdoor Baby's Breath and Barn Wood Inspired Weddingand decided this particular theme would pair perfectly with a S'mores Station! By using various sizes of wood boxes, we were able to create a rustic smorgasbord full of classic s'mores ingredients that are sure to keep your wedding guests happy all night long!
Begin by painting three DIY Flower Box Centerpieces and two DIY Unfinished Wood Planter Boxes. We used a vintage brown/gray paint but you could also use a standard Brown color as well. Using a clean, dry Paintbrush, add very light strokes of Acrylic White Paint to give the boxes a distressed, barn wood look.
Repeat the painting technique from step 1 on a Scalloped Sign. Using a Cricut Cutting Machine, White Adhesive Vinyl and our free S'more Love Cut File transfer the S'more Love letting onto the painted scalloped sign. If you don't have a cutting machine, not to worry! You can simply hand-write the lettering using a White Paint Marker and our download to help trace the lettering. Once the lettering is done, Hot Glue the scalloped sign to a DIY Framed Stained Wood Plank Sign and add a few sprigs of Baby's Breath behind the sign.

Now it's time to start setting up the DIY S'mores Station! Begin by adhering the S'more Love Sign to your table or cart using Double Sided Foam Tape.
Place the 3 painted DIY Flower Box Centerpieces lengthwise in the center of your cart or table. Fill the center box with marble chips or rocks and then place 4 Sternos into the box and surrounded with more chips or rocks. Fill the outer 2 Centerpieces with delicious marshmallows.
Place a DIY Unfinished Wood Planter Box on either side of the three Flower Box Centerpieces and fill with Graham Crackers and Hershey's Chocolate Bars.
Fill a Glass Vase with wooden skewers for roasting the marshmallows.
Place your candied bacon s'mores, roasted berry s'mores and toasted coconut caramel s'mores on a White Cupcake Stand. You can find the recipe for our S'more 3 Ways here!
Invite your guests to partake of and enjoy a night roasting marshmallows and making yummy s'mores at your newly created DIY S'mores Station!
