announcements

We're closing on our new home Labor Day weekend, and I'm looking to send out cute announcements of our new address to family/friends-updating them on our new address.

Any budget friendly ideas or a place that you've had them done at a good price/still look good?

 any help would be appreciated :)

Re: announcements

  • Would you consider hand making them?  I think a simple scrapbooked-typed and stamped card would be cute.  Something that you could whip up a bunch of them in a matter of an afternoon.

  • My cousin used some thin cardboard, printed some clear address labels and stuck them on the little pieces of cardboard and wrote "we moved" on them once.

    It was cuter in person than it sounds.

    Actually, she may have used a fancy address stamp. She is fancy like that.

  • Vistaprint! If you do the postcard size (you don't have to mail them as postcards, they offer that size of envelopes for an additional charge, but you can save postage money if you do) you can get 100 free.

  • Congrats on the new house!

    When we moved, I made postcards (vista print i think) since we moved to Olive st, the front was all olives, with our house number. the back side had our complete address and a sticker (shutterfly)of my dogs at the reservoir down the street.

    The move before, I put our Boston in a box labeled "WE MOVED" with our address and our Akita sitting next to it.

  • Y'all are so fancy--that or I am just too busy and cheap to spend $$ on announcements and postage--especially the postage! Wink 

    We pretty much plan to inform family and friends via email.
