Too many Save the dates

Bridget, on November 12, 2018 at 1:51 PM

Posted in Planning 31

I ordered the amount I needed for the number of guests rather than households. So now I'm left with about 50 left over save the dates and I have noo Idea what to do with them! They are magnets off of shutterfly, plastered with our photos lol Any ideas on how to not waste these but also get them off...

    Girl I did the exact same thing with our saves the dates. But instead of having 50 left over, I have 150! They are sitting in a box under the bed 😅 such a disappointment when I realized that! The good thing was, though, I only purchased save the dates, and not my save the dates, invites and thank cards all at the same time!

    I’m in nursing school but I can definitely check with my daughters art teacher and see if she wants them for projects?! That would be cute for parent gifts of the kids painted pictures on them!

    I also ordered more than we needed, but ours were just post cards, not magnets. I'm planning on keeping one on the fridge, and I'm also using a could to frame, to show the front and back. Then, I don't know what to do with the rest... lol

    Yeah that’s my plan for two of them, but the rest of the 40 I’m probably going to check with my daughter art teacher or something to see if she wants them lol
