wedding guest book

This is a sneak peek for Britten who ordered one of my handmade wedding guest books from PersonalizeYourWedding.com (my website). She chose a chocolate brown silk cover with butterscotch colored waxed linen thread binding. I added a title page at the front with a photo and their names, wedding date, and location. It turned out beautifully! I used my favorite paper – Frankfurt white – on the inside. It has the most luxurious texture. Really beautiful.

One surprise came Friday when I was ready to ship it off. I was all out of the cellophane bags I typically package my guest books in. Since I was going out of town for the weekend, I really wanted to get it shipped off before I left. I scrounged through my supplies to find something – anything – to make it beautiful.

[Confession: I often spend more time packaging my products than I do making them!]

Then I found it. Muslin. Ha! I made a little pouch for the guest book out of muslin and tied it up with jute twine. Not bad, eh? I’m thinking I should do this from now on. Forget the plastic bags! The muslin pouch really completed the look.

Thanks for the order Britten! Wishing you the best on your wedding day!
