DIY warning

To all the girls that think it may be cheaper to make your own envelope box instead of getting it for for the modern bride or someone like ... its not . every time i go to Michaels i spend like $20- $30 and i got a lot of stuff for free. like the boxes and fabric from my company. Just a warning!

I'm not even going to attempt it, I know that I am gonna just end up throwing the thing across the room out of fustration! Im gonna take the lazy way and order one!

I bought mine from a '10er who was selling hers after her wedding. It really ends up costing just as much to buy all the supplies, esp if you are not sure about exactly what you want! I LOVE mine!!

Michaels and AC moore has coupons you can use. My MOH used those coupons to buy supplies for my card box. She also used fabric from her dress to cover the box.

I can totally see that! I know that I would end up spending and stressing more by doing it myself!

i wish i had the patience to diy anything, but i'd rather just spend the money and not be bothered.

My mom just made a money bag for us. she used the extra material that was altered off my dress and bought a little extra fabric. It matched my dress perfectly!
