Are they easier to get out of the bottles than they look?

I did this for my wedding announcements since I eloped at the beach! The are easy to do and if you want to be able to take them out of the bottle really easy, tie a thin ribbon around them and hang that ribbon outside the bottle cap (a screw cap) so that it can be pulled out fast. I put beach sand, umbrella confetti, tiny seashells & ocean scented beads in my bottles (all bought at Dollar Tree & Walmart) and they came out awesome.

Just print the announcement on your own paper at home and use half of an 8×11 paper size - that way you get 2 invitations per print. I used beautiful blue ocean scrapbook paper to print mine on and it came out great. Everyone was thrilled.

Just take them to your post office to get weighed & have posted put on, then mail them off - that’s it!
