Stressing about invites

Slnk2182, 13 September, 2015 at 19:10 Posted on Planning 0 3

I am quite a crafty person, always making gifts at Christmas and such, I'm adamant I want to make my own wedding invites, but something in my brain is stopping me I have no inspiration and what I have tried to do just looks homemade and not quite right. I've spent so much on stuff to make them it would have been cheaper to buy the,. Any other brides in the same boat.

    I'm not crafty at all however have you considered that maybe it's just you that thinks they aren't good enough. You could check pinterest for ideas or flash some pics on here of what you've done. You may find everyone thinks they are much better than you do now and give you some confidence back x

    Have you got a theme or colour scheme in mind yet? You could always do an internet search for professional invitations that might inspire you. We made our own but I have to admit I only had minimal input into the design, my OH and my mam did most of the hard work. They are relatively simple but match out winter woodland theme perfectly.

    I used weddingchicks.com and printed off and invitation suite, which I personalised on the website. I then added on my own ribbons, gems etc to give them the personalised touch.

    Something similar might work? They have loads of different ones that could work as inspiration?

    Hi,

    Feel free to gain ideas from my designs. I know Pinterest is great for ideas. Their are some great website you can buy the actual pockets from and them just add decoration.

    If you need anyone to create them for you, drop me a line and we can talk.
