If you used a cardstock as the base, how did you glue on the menu? Did you use dots, double sided tape??? I am not sure what to get, glue will warp the paper and for something 5x7 I am not sure if maybe dots would work best? Any suggestions??

I used a gluestick for my DIY rehearsel dinner invitations
you can use double sided tape - that is what I am doing - or scrapbook sticky squares. i think the tape is cheaper. if you get archive quality you will be fine - even though i think you'd be fine with reg stuff since your wedding is only a month away. I am using double stick and mine is 15 days or so later.
glue dots are an ok choice, but aren't they expensive? you're going to be using a lot of whatever you use. you can probably use the tape in just the four corners, that is what i am doing.
are you makine one menu pp or one per table and framing it? if you are making one, go all out!! I am making 140 or so and I am going the cheapest route possible.

Re: Girls who DIY menus
i do not have the time to do menus for every person. I spoke to my RH and they sugested i do like everyother person and they will put the btween the place settings.so its an idea if you are going to be pressed for time. Any how i was thinking of punchin two holes in my bottom layer and top layer(one on each side) and then using a staple in the midde and then putting ribbion through the two holes so you dont see the staples

I want to go the cheapest route as well, I am making 135 of them so I am with you! I guess the double sided tape will work that's going to be a lot of tape!!!

Re: Girls who DIY menus
I used a glue gun, worked well but it probably wasnt the best solution.
