Wow, am I an idiot...

Wow, am I an idiot...

So there I was, trying to make my wedding all Martha Stewart perfect -- and I ordered the place cards to match my invitations, thinking, 'how great would that be, to have the place cards that match my invites in silver frames for my guests when they arrive?'

Well...I didn't realize that the place cards are 4.5 inches wide x 2.5 inches tall. So, needless to say, I cannot find simple silver frames to fit these place cards.

I don't want to cut the place cards that I HAD to have...

So I guess I need to find another favor.

Just had to vent.

What about a favor that holds the place card instead of framing it? I'm not sure of your theme but I found this site for you...
Favors

Does this help at all?!

Thanks very much for the site...I like them, but of course, FH doesn't! I am going to keep looking but thanks again for showing me this.

Re: Wow, am I an idiot...

Believe me, the first thing I did was check that -- and I posted to the vendor boards...

I think my placecards are just an oddball shape!

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Re: Wow, am I an idiot...

Did you check with the vendor you got the placecards from? Maybe they have odd sizes to get people to buy their odd sized frames! Just a thought. Good luck.
