Idea/help needed - printing names of table place cards without a computer

gemmauk

Ok I'm the least crafty/creative person ever but am trying to do my wedding on a budget and make it a bit personal.

I've bought plain place cards and need to get my guests names on them, but can't use a computer.

Any ideas for getting names on them?

Don't want to handwrite them.....

Thank you :-)

You can buy scrabble tiles for about £12 per hundred on ebay, stick them on.

Beads with letters on are next to nothing from China, also on ebay.

Or you can get sets of rubber stamps.

If you can't use a computer because the cards won't go through the printer, print the names on contrasting colour paper and cut them out (using wavy edge scissors to hide the fact you can't cut straight) and stick them on the cards.

http://offbeatbride.com/2011/06/place-cards I found this website which is rather sweet. Another way to do place names (although it maybe a little time consuming/not sure about your budget) is to make the names out of chocolate. There are molds on ebay (such as this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Silicone-Alphabet-Letter-Mold-Christmas-Chocolate-Jelly-Candy-Cube-Mould-Tray-/300868117912?pt=UK_Home_Baking_Accessories&var=&hash=item460d232598). Otherwise I think the quickest/easiest way would be to use a computer (maybe printing names on A4 sheets of sticker paper and cutting them out to size), is there anyone around who can help you/has a printer? Or if you have any photos (maybe friends/family could help out here) you could use them for the place cards instead of names and create mini photo frames with the cards. Hope your wedding goes well

You could also buy some peelable stickers in different fonts and use them, they just peel off and you can stick them on the place card.
