I have plans to take my sister's scrapbooking creativeness and do some DIY projects- possibly STDs and definitely our own invites!!
Edit- i decided just to order our STDs from Shutterfly because I have no patience and there was a really good deal plus free shipping.
STDs are here, love them!! I wont be sending them out until early next year but there was a deal I couldn't pass it up!!! I just need to print little cards out that indicate our wedding website and where our friends/family can get more information and hotel accommodations and then use double sided tape to attach them to the back!!
So...i ended up not liking the STDs that i got even though i loved them when they first came I wish i would have waited to use my e-pics! So i ordered magnets from vista print, they had a sale, no fear they wont go to waste, ill be sending out both, I mean my guest list does have 250 people on it!! Here is a pic of the new STDs:

On another note, i just ordered paper samples to do my own invites and envelope samples so I can finalize the colors.....
Aug 9th- I recently received my paper samples and decided on colors....today I bought the ribbon for the bands that will go around the pocket folds and the pens/ink- pads I will be using to address the invites=) I need to get a couple more things, but all in all I am saving a ton of money doing it myself instead of having someone make pocket folds for me.
Sept 29th- My sister came over and we started making the pocket folds...i am super excited for them...here is a mock up of what it will sort of look like....don't mind the pencil writing/measurements. I also added some progress pics and will update along the journey. [I am following this girl's blog I found, they will look like this with my colors, etc. Link---> http://roadtotheaisle.blogspot.com/search/label/pocketfolds ]
Table #s
My sister took pictures of us "apple picking" that we are going to use for table numbers. She used her scrapbooking cricut to make the #s and we walked around the orchard until we had enough pictures for 22 tables. I ordered them in 5x7's and will eventually get picture frames to put them in.
Bathroom Baskets
For the women's bathroom...i still have to add a couple more items and tissue paper at the bottom so it looks fuller!
For the men's room.
