FH new shift = tons of DIY projects

FH started a new job and his schedule is now 730p to 730a (completely opposite from the 9a to 6p that i work ) which means I will be doing a TON of DIY projects!

Now if only I could decide on which one to start first!!

I've only made my engagement party invites and my bm cards and wine tags. Chipping away little by little!

Re: FH new shift = tons of DIY projects

You can do it! My engagement party invites were DIY and I wanted to cry at times, but they ended up getting a lot of compliments from our guests. Where did you get the supplies for the card box? I was thinking Michaels?

Prob michaels or ac moore(closer to work), I had a dream last night that I made a box and it fell over and apart at the wedding. Ah! I have to make sure it is secure when I do it!

I'm attempting to make my own invitations. I have a picture in my profile (oh i saw someone commented but i have NO CLUE how to answer back!) so check it out and tell me what you think. I'm doing a Secret Garden theme and I've made an invite that has a heat embossed gate on the front. I'm going to have the RSVP card on the outside with a skeleton key on it and wrap a ribbon around it. Let me know what you think!
