Coming to a Mailbox Near You!

It's done! I have printed all the invitations and the inserts: directions from my home state to the ceremony, directions from the recommended airport to the hotels I have blocks with, directions from the hotels to the ceremony, and the R.S.V.P. cards. They are lovely! I am a big fan, because I did a lot of work on the. I made the borders with the dots and daisies by myself, and I will hand hole-punch the invites and put a sticker on them. Plus, I made the directions from the airport/hotels doublesided, so I saved paper!


AND, not only is this such a great DIY project, it was cheap! It cost me $64 and some change for all the printing. What? I didn't spend hundreds on embossing and printing and foil and all the fancy junk? Nope. Just a lot of time, effort, and care. I wanted them simple, and they are. I wanted them cheap, and golly they are. And I didn't have to compromise, because I made them. (Well, RoyBoy had his input, but he chose from options I gave him. And he didn't care that much anyways.)

Since I am a Staples Rewards member, I will also be earning 50% back! I plan on using this money to make small business cards with the wedding website on it, so that people have more info.


















EDIT: You know what's funny? I misspelt "Marriott." Whoops!
