Do you think I can learn calligraphy to do my own envelopes?

Since I have about a millons years until my wedding, maybe I can get a kit and learn calligraphy to do my own envelopes? What do you think?

I took calligraphy in 8th grade..I was pretty bad it it. But we used real pens and inkwells.too messy. I think nowadays people use the chisel tip markers...

It is really funny that you posted this -- I bought calligraphy pens a few weeks ago. I totally want to learn how to do it. I think you could probably learn how to do it in a month or so.

You could absolutely do it!! Esp now that you have the extra time! It's been awhile since you've been in 8th grade, I'm sure you'll be a lot more careful knowing that you actually have a use for it now!!

Try an adult ed class given at a high school or community center or continuing ed at a college. They may have calligraphy classes at a cheap rate.

Yeah thats what I am doing using the computer buying clear labels and wella its done lol lol

It does save money if you learn how to do it yourself I just can't see paying someone to address my envelopes plus I don't have the patience to learn I don't have neat writing either so it would be a mess

I was thinking the same thing...I think it might be hard, but, if you really practice you can do it

I def think you could do it. I'm actually thinking of doing it myself. My sister took a calligraphy class a couple of years ago so maybe she would help also.
