I think people buy them. I have a feeling my card box will be pretty much empty w/this bad economy

I'm holding out for the meantime...my sister got a beautiful one at her shower, it was a picture box I think on a pedestal that turned, but without pictures in it it just looked like a beautiful craftsman style lantern with the panes of glass. I'm having lil sis drop hints to find out where her friend got hers lol.

If that doesn't work, I might just kick it old school with a purse. I've heard so many horror stories of stolen boxes.

Do people actually steal card box @ weddings? How horrible and tacky.

My Aunt and I will be making mine. We are doing something very different. We are taking a round basket and adding something to the top of it to cover the opening (leaving a hole for envelopes and attaching a 'hot air' balloon to it. Something like this:

I have never heard of receiving it as a gift but most people buy and those that like DIY make it
