Pocketfold invitations

I am so not a crafty person but to save money i want to attempt to do my own invitations. I love the pocket fold style with a satin ribbon around the entire thing.

Does anyone know what kind of paper you use for the fold and where i can get it? ALso where do i get the paper printed?

hi there - i did quite a bit of DIY - check my albums for pics ... i got paper from paper presentation on West 18th St in the city - great place! Lots of selections ... I printed menus, invites etc. myself - I'm actually selling my color laserjet printer - it worked great for me and saved me a lot of $ - i posted the specs here: http://www.liweddings.com/chat/topic-614901-1.html

Your invites are exactly what i was looking to do. It looks like you had 2 or 3 different styles for your invites. What made you that? How did the ribbon around the envelope hold up during mailing?

did you find that it was ok to make them on a home printer? I was thinking kinko's might be better quality?

I went to Paper Presentations this past weekend and they have a great selection. I found the pocketfold I want, but not in my color and they agreed to have it done for me in about a week. Not having them done just yet, but its good to know. I just think its better when you see and feel the paper in person instead of online, but they also have an online store.

There was also a store right next door (don't know the name) that also had a smaller, but somewhat cheaper selection of paper.
