I know, I know. I need to make up my mind. We’re running out of time to get these STDs done (or, umm, started).

Unfortunately, I’m horrible about making up my mind! I change it daily about all this saving-the-date buisness. I’m kind of worried I’ll end up just turning out crap because I’ve waited so long to get this done and I’ll just have to make something rather than have nothing. Eep.

OK, all those negative, worrisome thoughts aside (where they belong), here’s what crazy harebrained scheme I’ve cooked up now: save-the-date magnets!

I know, I know. It’s not a new idea; people have been doing it forever, but for some reason, I never considered it until now. If I was being totally honest, I’d let you know that I’d never considered it until a few weeks ago when I actually had a dream about save the dates…yes, I’m that obsessed.

Regardless of how the idea occurred to me, now I’m kind of smitten with it! I mean, what does a person do when they get an important STD in the mail? Put it on their fridge!

And of course, since Mr. G and I are totally VIPs, people would find a magnet to stick ours on the fridge even if the STD itself wasn’t a magnet. But this way we’re including those poor folks that don’t have spare magnets lying around.

No, you don’t have to take your Survivor pool off your fridge to use that magnet to hold up our STD or take down Little Jimmy’s first A to put Mr. G and me front and center. Why, you ask? Because our STD will already be a magnet! What could be more convenient than that (besides the ability to both eat and sleep at the same time)?

So, without further ado, here’s some magnetic-save-the-date eye candy for you…and for me because I swear I’m going to figure this thing out soon.

These first few are all from Totally Wedding Magnets. Visit their site to see plenty more options.

I really want to add a calendar somewhere because, hello (!), people better be Sharpie-ing us in on their calendars—the next one has that covered.

Despite the fact that it looks like Kelly and Derek are posing for a high-school-yearbook photo (I mean, does that pose look natural at all to anyone? I don’t think so.), I like the design of the next one.

OK, maybe I was too hard on Kelly and Derek; it’s not that bad of a pose.

Anyway, these next few are from Magnet Street. Again, visit their site for a ton of more options. I also ordered a sample from these guys, and the quality was great, FYI.

Anybody else make fridge-worthy STDs? Is there actual proof that they’ve made it onto someone’s* fridge?

*Your mom’s doesn’t count.
