So as I was purusing the websites once again, I realized I needed a card box.  No problem, should just be able to check that off the list...yep, not so much.  First of all- if you look online, do you know how ridiculously expensive they are?  Don't even waste your time on the crafty websites looking for one-you would struggle to find one for less than 50 bucks, and a friendly reminder, this serves no purpose except to hold your cards from your wedding for about six hours.  Just another ridiculous and obnoxious cost in the wedding planning process.

I decided I was going to call my future father in law and see if he could help me out.  And you bet he did.  I sent him a picture of something I was considering, and just let him go.  I think his wife helped him quite a bit, (or at least I would like to think that she was the one who suggested glitter :))  Anyways, it is PERFECT!  I LOVE IT!!!  So when you are thining of things to do to make things a little less expensive, here is an easy way to save money.  Either make a card box yourself, or enlist a friend of famly member to make one for you.  I think this is so much better and personal than anything I could have purchased online.  Thanks Jim and Sue!!!
