STDs: Fridge-spiration

May 12th, 2011 @ 11:21 am by Mrs. Pony

After failing to find the perfect inspiration for our STDs after countless internet searches, I turned to one of my favorite places in the world:

STDs: Fridge-spiration :  wedding bloomington save the dates Img 11801 IMG_11801

My fridge (in law school)

Amidst the barrage of take-out coupons (not pictured) and embarrassing junior-high photos was the STD inspiration I had been searching for.

Not seeing it? Here’s a clue:

This idea hit all my criteria: it is fun, can include a picture, is (obviously) a magnet, and provides hours of entertainment. I loved it. I had to have it. Luckily, Mr. Pony loved this idea as much as I did. Awesome STDs were a go!

But, of course, I had to make this project harder. See that note about the stock word art? Well, that doesn’t fly with me. If I was going to get my dream STDs (ha, dream STDs), I wanted to customize it completely. So, after picking out the perfect words and the prettiest fonts, and spending 7,925 hours figuring out how to arrange my words vertically, I was finally happy with my creations and ready to send them out into the world.

Up next, our STD reveal!!

Did you find wedding inspiration while looking for a cool treat?

@Kcoleybear: You should see them in my next post, but I’m not sure there is much of a tutorial in it. If you (or others) would like more of a tutorial after the next post, just let me know and I’ll be happy to write one up. :)
