would this look stupid

Ok i didnt know finding a box would be so hard all these sites have tons of boxes but none in the size i need lol.

So i just saw this one box, its a little bit bigger than i need but not much by much. I need 8x5.5x1 1/2 this is 10x6 1/8 x 1 1/2

its the ONLY box that is a bit bigger but not overly big, all the others are too small or the some that are 8 are 8x2 or something that just won't work

The only other thing is that it has a mirror on the lid so that might be weird lol. But the colors are my colors lol and i just dont know what to do and have to decide SOON . Would it look stupid since the invite is smaller and also about the mirror lol. At this time when im so tired it sounds good but then i think after ill be like W** did i do?



*********UPDATE********* I am NOT getting them lol. I found the box i was looking for, its the same one my sample was sent in and its ALOT less money. Not as pretty as these but oh well who cares.

of course i check again, and although MOST of the boxes on the site are $30-50 for 100, this one is $40 for 16 of them, i should've known they can't be the same size

i do like them

i showed fh just now and he said im crazy but yeah can come in handy and the guests can keep it. I was JUST looking at the price which said $40 and most come in units of 100, i noticed before it was units of 18,i wrote 16 before by accident. So the search continues

I like the box. I argee the mirror can come to be very useful. The guest can use them for something else.

im on the search for new ones it would be too much just for the boxes...who would think that finding a box that is 8x5 1/2 would be so hard

yeah its too much. BUT i found the exact same box they had sent me with the sample and its $39 for 100 boxes and the best part is they ship them to you same day your purchase but even better is that they're in LI so maybe i can just pick them up

I really love this box but agree it is a bit much!!! Also the mirror may way the package down and the price to ship sky rockets!

Question....how do you send these? In an envelope than a box? Or just the box? Do u have to tape the box closed or just assemble it???

i am using just a regular type box i decided lol. No the invite will go directly into the box so when they open it, the invite will be laying flat inside. I might tape it but not for it to show lol, or use ribbon maybe. I saw how one was done and i liked it
