DIY Wednesday: Crafty Thank You Notes
Posted on January 18th, 2012 by Kate. Filed under DIY Wednesday, Do It Yourself.

Make guests and helpers feel appreciated with a hand-written thank you note after the wedding. We like the idea of including photos from the wedding too! Give your photographer a list of shots you need, or if you have a photo booth, you can include those photos. Here’s a quick and crafty how-to:
Materials Needed:
A6 size postcards and envelopes
a white pen
waxed twine
photos of your guests at the wedding (optional)
printed paper
spray adhesive, double stick tape, or a glue stick
Directions:
1. Line the envelope with printed paper by tracing the shape of the envelope and cutting the paper about an inch smaller all around.
2. Adhere the paper with double stick tape, spray adhesive, or a glue stick. Be sure to let it dry if needed.
3. Write your note on the postcard, and tie up the postcard and photo in waxed twine.
Everyone loves a handwritten note! Your friends and family will just adore your thoughtful gesture!
