  • card collecting

    Sometimes I wish I wasn’t so detail oriented. It has been my achilles heel througout wedding planning, but I can't stop! I simply love obsessing over the tiniest wedding details. For the past few days, I’ve been dreaming up creative ways to collect the cards and money envelopes that people will bring as gifts.

     

    Of course there’s the traditional card box route:

    And the birdcage idea, which I really love (plus no decorating needed):

    For those who want to model their wedding cakes, there's the hatbox route (fun and easy DIY project!):

    I’m thinking of going the photo box route. What do you think of something like this, but white and bigger (at least 8x10 pictures per side)?

    I wonder if it would be as simple as assembling together four picture frames plus a base board and a cover. Hmmm, I have a friend’s bridal shower to attend this weekend, but I hear a new project calling my name. I’ll let you know how it goes!

  • I like the last idea :) it sounds really cute!

  • I think the last idea is very original.

  • We had a birdcage that's been used for all the cousins on my husband's side.  It was customized to our colors with flowers and lace and was very sweet.  I prefer the clean look of the photo box.  I saw instructions somewhere once.  I don't remember where though, sorry.  Maybe Martha Stewart?
