Ladies,
I am looking for a pretty inexpensive card box, something simple and elegant. I do not want to DIY because I am not good at those types of things.
Any recommendations??
Don't really want the birdcage or mailbox theme either.
HELP!!

I bought mine from klslk in the 'past brides yard sale' thread. I'm gathering it and other items to post myself for resale. It's still in perfect condition.

This is a pic of it but it's white, not ivory:

Check with your banquet manager too because I found out, after I had purchased mine, that I could rent one for $20 from them.

This is the one they have at a.c. moore

That one is very pretty also, I will check back when you are ready to sell to see what you want for it. I called Watermill and they charge $60 to rent them.

Sorry danamike, but I sold it already. I guess card boxes are a hot item! I saw this one listed on the web for $70. and I refuse to pay that much for a cardbox.

But if you can find one that's reasonable, you should consider reselling it here. Within 10 minutes of me putting it up for sale, I had two FM's. You'll most likely be able to resell it for half the cost and recoup some of what you laid out at least!

Good luck.

Ebay has tons for inexpensive. Just be sure to check the shippping charges because some of them are high.
