so I am going to 'DIY' something....

and we ALL know I am not a DIY kinda girl!

I decided that I am not spending $$$ on candy bags for my buffet. Instead, I am going to buy the bags wholesale (found great options online) and order some moderately priced stickers.

This is a huge step for me, seriously! LOL! I dont think I can really mess this up, girls.

I cant afford a wedding planner but if you want to give out free services, we can chat. lol

Lisa, so far I ordered a catalogue from ULINE and am searching on clearbags.com. You can get these (250 bags) for $25 plus shipping OR these! (200) for $16 plus shipping.

Unreal, right? I just decided to Google and am totally DIY-ing. If you can call it DIY...

LOL! You are totally right. Maybe I will choose from my first two ideas instead.

I just thought the top that closed was neat. My candy buffet will be all M&M's I think, since FH's nana calls us M&M, which is cute.

I like the first one, with the M & Ms they would be so colorful on the tables! Thanks for the link

edit: Oops I mean I like the second one, I looked at the listings backwards!

That site is really cute, they also have picture frames for anyone who might be doing a photobooth that prints out on 4x6. Thanks for sharing.

As for DIY, I never thought i could do any DIY projects and so far mine came out pretty cute. I'm sure you'll do great! Have fun!!

I am leaning towards the clear bags too, and then will provide twist ties as well. I found adorable stickers on ETSY but really need to price shop around.

Good thing I can get 'work' done and wedding plan, or else I would never have time for this. lol
