Binding Your Wedding Memories

So the question of today is - what do I do with all these wedding cards once I've removed the checks and cash???  Your spouse will probably say, "Toss them", but you are thinking, "But I want to keep some of them."  Either this scenario is playing out in reality as you read this post or this conversation will surely happen once you return from the honeymoon.  Well check out this cool and easy idea that will allow you to keep those pretty little wedding cards.

All you need are 2-3 binder rings, a hole punch and ribbon to tie the "booklet" shut.  And there you have it...a keepsake that will take up very little space, but allow you to thumb through your wedding cards year, after year, after year!  This idea would also work fabulously for cards you receive from engagement parties, bridal and/or couple showers and rehearsal dinners.

Until next time...WEDologize!
