My eyes are burning: diy invites almost done

Monica, on February 1, 2020 at 12:17 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 11

My eyes are so tired after yesterday (7 hours working on invites solely yesterday) and Thursday. Im never opposed to DIY unless its super unnecessary or super extensive, even after the hours I spent Its all worth it & my invites didn't break the bank (<$100). Im only partly done because I ran out of ribbon Smiley sad . So far I have 30 invites ready to go & fully addressed, I plan to get ribbon tomorrow and finish while watching the superbowl. My plan today is to make a list of everyone, update my guest list and make a list of those who I need addresses for.

    Showing off my special paper.


    In all reality an invite is supposed to just give the date, time, & place of an event but I feel mine is so straight to the pt like it needs some fluff to it or something. Lol some kind of phizazz like butterflies popping out or like a hologram once you open it.
