We weren't looking for this, but we saw it and I instantly loved it. We're going to use it for our card box. I'm on the lookout for thick aqua ribbon to embellish this a bit, and I know I'll re-use it for storage after the wedding.
Here's a close up of the pattern:
The hatbox was with the Christmas packaging stuff, and was 50% off, so we got it for $5.50!
Cardbox dilemma solved! That was easy.
We also got all of the aqua fabric for table overlays for the reception. We bought 15 yards of fabric at $1.99/yard and it was half off. It came to like $17.59 or something. I am still on a high at what great deals we got! I've told pretty much everyone I've come into contact with how well we did I'm so excited.
What are you doing for your cardbox? What's your biggest bargain triumph?

ReplyDeleteSomehow I missed this post - that box is perfect! I think the ribbon will really set it off.
