I am thinking of making my own menus..but I am not sure how to make it.

Can anyone tell me how they did it in the past or will do it?

Thanks!

I am sure there are a lot of ways to make them. What I did is bought gold parchment paper from Staples. I then made up the menu on both sides and cut down the middle. I will embellish with a stamp to incorporate my theme.
There are tons of things you can do to embellish. Cardstock paper, crystals, stamps, colored paper, ribbon band... etc. HTH

I used thick textured paper and printed them out on the computer (used Word) and printed them using a laser printer. Since the paper was thick, i hot glued ribbon (which was the sme color as my BM dresses) to the top and bottom of each one. EASY!

I designed them in Macromedia Fireworks but You can probably do it justa s easily in Word. Anyway, I'll print it on white paper and the round the corners with a corner cutter and put it on turquoise paper also with rounded edges. There's a pic in my album with crappy white paper to test it out.
