You put so much work into picking out the invites, the stationary for your wedding... why not make them a displayable work of art! This is a great way to keep and display items from your wedding!
I have two different pieces here:
The top piece is a 13" X 17" picture frame from Michaels, about $8 (but you can use your coupons and get it for less!).
I had displayed (top to bottom, starting with the left side) our save-the-dates postcard, our invitations, our wedding programs, a piece of burlap from our wedding decor (1 Corinthians 13:8), a wedding kiss picture, our sparkler send-off picture, a Congratulations card (with a cute bride and groom outfit!), and lastly, our thank you cards.
And then the bottom piece I made of our wedding date. It's a divided picture frame, about 6.5" X 13" undivided, and cost about $6 at Michaels (again, use a coupon and you save!).
I went to this site: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lwr/collections/ and found pictures of numbers to print. I just adjusted the size and printed on my printer. 5 7 11!
Here is our living room! Finished project? For now :)
Hint for all you Apartment Dwellers out there: Try to stray away from push pins, they just poke little holes in the wall you have to deal with later when you leave! So, what's a good alternative? How about Command Strips (which you can find in almost any store!). They stick to your object and the other side sticks to the wall, but there is a tab that you can pull when it is time to take it all down, and No Mess/ No Holes! Pretty cool :)
