Particularly in today’s not-so-delightful economy, I’m all about resourcefulness. When I saw the haystack needle’s BRILLIANT paint chip invitations via Snippet & Ink I literally gasped with glee.
(Please keep in mind that at this point I was recovering from a serious sweet-potato-caramel-bread-pudding overdose – sugar coursing through my veins and eyelids drooping – so such an enthusiastic reaction in this sugared-sluggish state can only attest to the brilliance of this idea).
For a last minute housewarming party, Miss Jen grabbed a stack of free paint chips from a local store, then used her typewriter for the text of the invites. The theme of the party was “Color Me Happy” – with bursts of color incorporated throughout the festivities. Would you not LOVE to have this invitation show up in your mailbox?
Wishing you a lovely weekend!
