This just doesn't seem right?!

This just doesn't seem right?!

OK, I'm sending out my outer and inner envelopes today via Fed Ex to Michele Clark (Calligrapher). I'm totaling up what she is charging me and it doesn't seem right-- it seems so cheap to me.

I'm sitting here waiting to see the 400 or so dollar number pop out of the calculator and it's NOT near that!! I have 145 full sets and at $1.25 per set that comes to: $181.25 ...right???

That seems so low to me considering this is all done by HAND and it will take her like a WEEK to complete. If I didn't know for a fact that she does great quality work I would be SO nervous and unsure about her being legitimate!! LOL!

Sorry, I had to post about this b/c I'm in disbelief. I have been up finalizing and putting together the lists since 8am and it's starting to go to my head

BTW: 240 on Vin's side and 53 on mine.

Yep that's right... I'm sure they will be fine. Don't worry if she underpriced for her time, your benefit.

Sorry Dani, I am terrible at posting. I didn't even take pics yet except for with my cell and I don't even know how to email them so that I can post. But the envelopes are BEAUTIFUL.
I was on the phone with my MOH when I got them and she's like 'you're the only girl I know who cried because of her envelopes'
