I paid $18 per invitation! So $4 is very very cheap!

I think $4 is OK if its got embellishments for a DIY, as it would probably cost more like $8-$10 at a stationer.

But I would expect cheaper than that per item if it was fairly plain.

I paid about $4 per invite, but mine were printed and didn't have lace or anything on them.

That is a really good price and they look like nice invites. After my 21st last year and the engagement party I vowed to never ever make invites again, so I am getting a lady from Brissie to make them up. A DIY pack is a pretty good idea though!!

I got so sick of the DIY invitations as i just didn't have the time to really get stuck into it. I ended up going with a really nice custom deisgned magnetic invitation. They final result looked great and these guys custom design to suit your theme and colours for free (got to love that). I got the large size with free personalised envelopes so all i had to do was write the names and addresses on the enevelope and they were done. Everyone loved being able to stick them on the fridge and not worry about them. Worked out to be $1.43 per invite including postage !!!!

Thanks ladies!!

I thought they were pretty inexpensive too, compared to the prices of some others that i had seen.

I actually went shopping tonight in a larger town and bought some supplies, so i will have a go and try and make some over the weekend. Will see how creative i can be.

I will post some pics when i am done!!
