Weddingbee Blog
I have total craft envy. I love all things related to paper goods, DIY, different types of adhesives, scissors and paper punches. I pore over invitations and scrapbooks like a madwoman. I have my Gocco, bone folder, heat gun, bone folder, and extra sharp scissors. The only thing missing? Actual crafting experience.
Enter the lovely world of Weddingbee and other wedding blogs! These sites are invaluable sources of inspiration for DIY-wannabe gals like myself. After resolving the formal vs. informal save-the-date debate (another whole post), I found and fell in love with these guys:
I thought – I could do that! After scouring Paper Presentation and Print Icon in NYC for the right cardstock, ribbons and envelope lining paper, I whipped up a few of these:
Bummed I have to blur out the names!
Not too shabby, huh?
In my next save-the-date posts – step-by-step tutorials of embossing, envelope lining, and the save-the-date itself!
What websites do you turn to for wedding DIY inspiration?
omg, those are ADORABLE!!! Sometimes I wish I had sent stds, just cause they can be so cute and creative! Oh well!
I love these! I am doing something like this for our thank you notes. Great job!
They came out so cute! Te childhood pics are adorable and I love moo cards.
Weddingbee has been a major source of inspiration for our wedding. We’re actually in the midst of designing our save the dates and have been turning to weddingbee for lots of ideas. Before Weddingbee, I had never heard of papersource or many of the other stores and resources we’ve been using throughout the planning process. Our wedding wouldn’t be nearly as diy friendly or personal without the bee!
Aww, cute pics of you guys! You’re one crafty Hamster!
Mr Hamster is the cutest thing ever!!! OK, even my friends know this about me but I am beyond obsessed with little asian babies, I think they so delicious! Your Save The Dates are fab, love ‘em!
Love these! I remember when you posted them on the boards. Love.
I love looking through Once Wed, Rifle, and of course Weddingbee for inspiration!
These Save The Dates are supper cute! I love the use of childhood photos. It’s so original and really unique.
I also make Save The Dates at tietheknotdesigns.com but have never thought to use childhood photos.
Great posting!

If you need any more inspiration, we have some other ideas here:

But it looks like you have it covered. Good luck on the day - and with the rest of the planning.
Wow, what a small world! I recognize that inspiration Save the Date cause my brother is friends with the couple and actually went to that wedding, and I’m getting married at the same venue. Yours is really cute, too!
