DIY MENU questions

I have a laser printer and an ink jet, does it matter which printer i use for different papers?

what did you use to attach 2 papers together (like a backing color)

were you able to get the paper to size (that long rectangular sheet) or did you cut them to size? ( i do have a paper cutter so its not a prob if i have to cut them)




OH AND CAN YOU PLEASE POST YOUR DIY MENUES???? THANKS

TIA

i'm not sure if the printer type matters - but for all the things i printed myself - i used an 8X11 paper size & cut things down from there.

for our programs - i used.... oh crapola....what's the word???? the little things at the top of the page...

Grommets? With Ribbon tied through them?

I'm using double sided tape. To lazy to punch holes and tie the layers together

I used the color laser printer at work just so I could print them out all at once. I bought ivory paper to print the menu on and mounted them on dark brown cardstock with glue dots, punched two holes in the top and tied a brown ribbon through it.

I did two on a page, landscape, and did have to cut both papers to fit since they were both 8 1/2 x 11.

ETA: I'll try to post a pic tonight.

thank you! i guess there are so many ways to do them. ill have to play around with it.

i used duck brand permanent glue lines to glue the 2 layers together snd that stuff was awesome! i got it at joanns but im sure michaels and ac moore has it. its like one of thise white out tape dispensers.

as for a printer. I used an unk jet, but if u have a lazer- it would use that it will work with most papers like metalics.
