Wedding Wednesday: DIY Card Boxes

A while back I saw these amazing card boxes on one of the blogs I follow, She Said Yes! Marni Gold who is the owner of Custom Card Boxes was guest blogging and I was blown away by her beautiful creations.

After seeing these I decided to look around and see what others have done in the way of DIY Card boxes. Here are some of my favorites.
The last one is my favorite! So I got to thinking, I bet I could make one of these! It will take some patience to get the ribbon to look that pretty, but I the rest of it would be pretty easy, at least I think it will be. I think I'm going to try it! Not sure when exactly I will take on this new little project of mine but I will most definitely take pictures and share the process with you!

  11. I love these card boxes! They are such a cute idea. It is definitely something different that would add a cute touch at weddings or other events. I think I might look into it as well, although it might be tough because my mom is really artistic but for some reason I have also no artistic talent whatsoever!
