Seashell Invitations in Boxes

[Roberta24B]

I started off looking for wedding invitations that were beachy & classy at the same time. Looked at many images online & found some amazing ones that I loved but not at $20 an invitation before shipping to guests. So I decided to make some invitations of my own & this is what I came up with....

 

 

 

From Michaels I bought:

• Celebrate It Brand Invitation kit Ivory- 50 Invitations + 50 Response cards & Envelopes for both @ $24.99 (With 40% off coupon $14.99)
• Pink Transparent paper- Regularly priced @ .59  although I got most of mine at .20 because they are always having paper sales
• Martha Stewart Heart paper cutter- @ $14.99 (on sale)
• Starfish- @ $3.99 (for 3) But ordered then in bulk & received a 20% discount 
• Trinket Pins- @ $5.99 (for 15)
• Celebrate It Brand Ribbon-  2 for $3.00 (got about 35 invitation wraps per ribbon spool) 
• Bag of Basic seashells- $5.99 (about 20-25 per bag)

 

 

From Hobby Lobby I bought:

• Burlap- @ $3.99 a yard (Got 10 invitation box wraps per yard)
• Charms- @ $1.99 for 2 charms
• Sand dollars- @ $4.99 (Got about 9 wraps out of 1 Box)

 

 

Personalized Wedding luggage tags- @ .71 for 140       www.weddingfavorsunlimited.com

White wedding shipping boxes- @ .98 per box via my local UPSstore

Brown Invitation boxes- @ .46 per box via my local UPSstore

Shipping tape for boxes- @ $7.00          www.tapeswell.com 

 

With shipping the invitation boxes come out to be under $10 each
