Attention all DIY'ers!

So I decided to take on a couple (which turned into many) DIY projects. I just wanted to share my pleasant experience with two companies. For all those ladies that are having a summer wedding and intend on using any kind of shell, starfish, etc, go to shellhorizons.com! So cheap! The only problem is that the first time you order something, you have to fax the order in. We put our order in and it was hear by the following week!

Also, I was just going to do my miscellaneous stationary myself, which turned into designing my own monogram which turned into doing everything myself. I am using cardsandpockets.com and it has been such a great experience! Everything I've ordered came so fast, any questions I had via email were responded to either that day or the day after, and they have been so helpful!! Not to mention they are significantly cheaper than other DIY invitation sites.

If you ladies have any questions about either of these places, please let me know!

Just wanted to share! Happy planning!!

Thank you so much! Will look into cardsandpockets.com

Thanks for sharing

I found Pearl Linen 80lb and 115lb cardstock which I am using for my invitations, menus, programs and place cards. I got it from thepapermillstore.com. It shipped very quickly and was well packaged! They have a huuuuge selection of paper and cardstock, I even got the matching envelopes for the paper.

Hope that helps!

My futrue SIL is getting married in June so I will pass onthe info! Thanks
