Been browsing some DIY stuff, and that's my inspiration for today!

What are your ideas for your card box??

I'm thinking about doing a DIY cardbox. one of the ones where there's a stack of 3 boxes...I'm thinking of doing them in a yellow fabric, and adding some orange ribbon, perhaps some orange flowers and a touch of bling! Let's see if I can pull this off???

My mom is a very crafty person. She is 100% DIY!! so she is making mine. It's the 8 x10 pic frame card box.

I told Fh that this is his DIY contribution to the wedding

I will DIY. I want to make a 2 or 3 square tier. I'm going for a cranberry & ivory color scheme. And add some flowers and crystals for accents. Hopefully I can pull it off.

Ugh, I really need to start making this already! I'm gluing two punch bowls together to make a sphere then FH is cutting a slot out of one for the cards. Then I am hot gluing silk flowers over all of it so it looks like one of those flower balls.

Wow that sounds amazing!! I can't wait to see it!

I'm going to at least attempt to make a 3 tier cardbox in purple and teal with some bling. If I fail miserably, then I'll purchase one!

haha I love date twin - I plan to just buy one if I fail too. Maybe we should work on them together

I know this is so original, but I want a vintage birdcage, I will probably but it from save on crafts, and DIY the ribbon and sign. But I will also check out FTMB, since it might save me from another DIY project. And Lindsay, your idea sounds awesome!!!
