DIY: Save the Dates


Recently Engaged?? Congratulations! With everyone's busy schedule's these days, Save the Dates are quickly becoming a wedding planning must-have. Save the Dates allow you to spread the news about your set wedding date before you send out your wedding invitations. They are usually sent out 6-12 months prior to your wedding.

Here is a quick way to create your very own, personalized Save the Date Magnets to send to all of your family and friends. Best part about them - you can create 200 of them for less than $40!!

Here's how:

1. Order personalized business cards from VistaPrint.com. This site makes it incredibly easy to upload your own photo and add text. Side note: With their great deals, this site can really come in hand with wedding items such as Thank You cards, address labels, etc. (And I highly recommend to sign up for their emails...they are worth it! For example, 250 business cards for under $20!)

2. Order Adhesive Business Card magnets. House of Magnets had a great deal and I ordered 200 for $17.56 - including S&H.

3. When both items come in, attach a business card to the adhesive magnet!

There you have it - easy as 1-2-3! And all for under $40. :-)
