Wedding Post Boxes - where to buy a small one???

Have you tried Hobbycraft? They have lots of plain card boxes with lids you could perhaps cover yourself. The only ones I've seen in the wholesalers are large ones though.

Glad you asked, ive been looking for a smaller one too....will watch for all the answers to flood in!

One here:

I bought a cheap one for £6 off ebay and to be honest it was made of very thin card.

I really wanted to make my own to match my homemade stationery, but didn't want the poor quality. The last thing I wanted was for someone to pick up the box at the end of the night and have it fall apart with the weight of the cards.

The one i got from Prettywild is so sturdy and solid, I'd be surprised if they came flat packed likte the ebay cheapies. It cost me about £30 and was worth every penny - if I were you I would seriously consider getting one from her.

ETA - They also have a hinged lid that the other sort didnt have, so can be opened up easily should you want to put something a little bigger in there. I am going to used mine after to store my filled in guest book, cards and any other keepsakes from the day

Sorry to crash the thread a bit - just wanted to say Zippy after seeing the bits PrettyWild did for you, I've nabbed her to do a lot of my on the day stuff! Think her work is amazing. She's now doing my post box, guest book, table plan and probably place cards too! So reasonable and really beautiful stuff. ?

I got a wooden one personalized with our names, and our van hehe

Wow thats gorg!!

Wow, thats fantastic.

Where did you get it from & how much was it if you don't mind me asking?!

I love it it was £30 but she made it there and then while we watched! It's a really personal keepsake

Its amazing & very unusul & I can't believe it was only £30, bargin.

Sorry forgot to say where it's from lol, it was from a craft fair, they were selling book marks and name signs for kids bedrooms. This is a lap desk but it's basically just a box

Thanks ladies for your help

Mrs T - thats really gorgeous!!!!!

I've been told that we're having a scale model of D's landrover! ?

He started to make it to wear as a hat for a hat party we went too (he was taking the mick) but he made it too big for a hat and the project go shelved. So now we have a made thing which he said we should use as a post box! Heehee! The bonnet has a flap so you could put the cards in there! ? I wasn't going to have one so now we're having that!

Could you have a look for wooden boxes or whicker boxes? A firend used an old box and just covereed it in wrapping paper.

I got mine from John Lewis for £8 I think. It isn't that big and it's got a pattern on it but I put our names on the front decorated with the theme of calla lillies and thistle. Not that sturdy but then I didn't really need it to be.

Don't know if there is anything you could use here /product-category/boxes

What a fab website!!!!! Sadly, there isn't what I'm looking for but def saving to my favourites!!!! Thanks 3d

I have a collection of web sites on my favourites that I just like to look at, here's one that probably don't have any boxes but you might like some of the other things for decorating one http://www.carnmeal.com/

I bought my box for £4.99 and decorated it myself

Can I be silly and ask what these are for? Is it for guests to put money into??

They are for cards and presumably some may have money or gift vouchers in so it's to keep them all in one place.

Oof! That's gorgeous Sarah. I might commission you to do mine. ?

Hehe thank you brideseekingblush, was very easy and cheap to make if you want any help x
