I created my own wedding programs as I couldn't find anything in my budget nor could I find exactly what I was looking for. I have very little artistic ability so if I can do this so can you!
How I went about doing it:
I used Microsoft Publisher to create my wedding programs. This was the most time consuming part of the project.
I bought the Kraft Paper from Hobby Lobby. They were actually full sheets that I had cut in half after they were printed from OfficeMax.
I bought craft scissors and a hole punch from Hobby Lobby to cut around the edges to give it some rustic feel instead of having a straight edge. The hole punch was used to punch a small hole in the corner so I would be able to use the twine to tie the knot in the corner.
I also got the twine from Hobby Lobby.
After they were created in Publisher, I saved the finished program to my USB drive and took it to OfficeMax where they printed them and cut them all in half. All I had left to do was cut them with the craft scissors, punch a hole in the corner, and tie the knot with the twine.
I would say the total estimated time it took me to do this would be about ten hours. I spilt it into stages and didn't do it all in one day. I would say I spent about $45 dollars on everything. Really easy and cheap! I had a lot of fun doing it so if you need any help or have questions about the process comment on my page and I'd be more then happy to help you!
