MR – I don’t know where I first saw a pin using a wedding invitation to make an ornament, but the idea stuck in my head – it was so cute!. We were going to my brother-in-law’s wedding, and had bought them a gift card. It’s always nice, though, to give an actual present. So I took the invitation, cut the text into small strips, and curled each piece on a pencil. I also used a bit of the red cardstock that was with the invitation, as well as just a piece of the black. Add a bow at the top and that’s it! 2 minutes to make!
It’s kind of fun to shake it up and see what parts of the words you can read – names, location, time, etc. I imagine you could add a bit of glitter inside too, but I was a bit pressed for time.

I live in Hamilton, Ontario, and love my city. I'm a Netflixer, choral music geek, bookworm, inventor of recipes (I take Artistic Licence on EVERYTHING that I make), wife of one, mother of two, and owner of a neurotic Schnauzer. I respect people who respect others. I love good food that's well done, but my favourite lunch is KD & hotdogs. With ketchup. I'm addicted to Clearance Shopping. I will ALWAYS get the product that I want at the price that I want, eventually.
